MJ and his Lion

We want to say a HUGE thank you to the Callahan Family!! Ben, Blanca, and London Callahan we are so thankful and grateful for you. They dropped off this stuffed lion and ballon lion with such a sweet card. MJ is loving his lion's I think that is his new favorite animal. Thank you so much to Chloe for doing this cute photo shoot of MJ with his new lion's.

and does not turn back before any;"

2 week Post OP Check-up (2/19)

We had MJ's first check-up since his surgery. He is doing amazing we go back in 6 weeks (4/2). He loved taking a ride in the red wagon. The doctor measured his head and said that his head is right were it should be. The Dr still wants us to be careful with him as much as we can. In other news MJ has FOUND HIS VOICE!! He loves to yell and scream which is so cute. He is trying his hardest to talk back to us. He also is working on crawling we have the army crawl down and are working on pushing our body up. The walker is his thing he has figured out how to maneuver it around the house and trying to run the dogs over. Everyone thank you for all the prayers.

Our Little Valentine Baby

Its MJ's First Valentine's Day!!!

Since he is feeling so much better we had to do a photo shoot. 

Here is a lil photo shoot my sister chloe and I did on Valentine's Day. At first MJ loved it but after a while he got over it really quick. We did get some really cute pictures out of it though. Hope you enjoy our little Valentine Baby!!

Some other things that we did on Valentine's day....

We got an edible arrangement from daddy so yummy!! MJ loved the bear and balloons that came with it. 

Chocolate covered strawberries for breakfast... why not it is valentine's day. 

Candy jewelry is always fashionable. 

Maui pancakes are so yummy straight from Hawaii. 

We had a relaxing Love filled day!!

We Are Home

Sorry it took me so long to update everyone on our return home.

WE ARE HOME!!!

I have learned that just because we are home doesn't mean that everything is good and back to normal. MJ is still healing and everyday he gets better. When we arrived home MJ's Aunts Chloe and Raimi made 2 banners for him they are so cute. Such a thoughtful thing to do. It had little drawings on them saying supper MJ, MJ and Mickey, MJ and all the family members in stick figures lol Sooo cute!!

MJ got a bath when we got home his first real bath after surgery and he loved it. Even though it doesn't look like it in the picture. 

He then took a long nap this is not like him at all I can't ever get him to take a long nap. He was happy to be in his own bed. Home sweet home!!

We want to thank Aunt Sandi and Uncle Don for an amazing dinner the night we came home. They also brought us home made bread and lunch for the next day. It was so nice to come home to a home cooked meal thank you both so much. It was great to see you.

Thank you everyone it means so much to us!! This is a pic of MJ in his stroller. When he first came home we couldn't get him to fall asleep. He fought sleep so much so we would walk him in the house and around the neighborhood till he fell asleep.
