Another busy month for this jetsetter!  We are in Disney right now for his Make-A-Wish trip, but this post is only going to focus on our other adventures this past month, inducing settling into our part-time life in Minnesota.  MAW will get its own series of posts soon!

     

Ready to head back to Minnesota!

Settled in at the hotel.

     

Infusions are so routine now, Momma!

     

Enjoying some ice cream before we head back to Houston!

We also had some fun visitors come to play with Little Buddy this month!

     

Fun day at Market Street with Ms. B!

               

     

Thrilled for a visit from Ms. A, his first babysitter and his first love!

Otherwise, we are just enjoying our summer!  I'm so glad we were able to find a good routine.  It just makes everything so much easier.  

Great day for a picnic lunch!

Enjoying some Super Why!

Swim lesson time with Ms. J!

     

     

     

Modeling their new brother and sister shirts...I love their faces!

The mannequins at Old Navy are their best friends!

Painting time!

     

Sometimes you just need to be naked except for your cowboy boots...

...and sometimes you just need to destroy the entire upstairs!

Great day at My Gym!

     

Enjoying some park time before the splash pad opens!

But summer will be over soon.  :(  While I am excited for my Little Buddy to start developmental kindergarten, I am also sad because I know how much I am going to miss him.

Working on Little Buddy's summer reading challenge and reading outside...just another reminder that school is starting soon.  

And then it was off to more adventures in Minnesota!

     

Making some "rare" friends at the airport!

Got to meet and play with Ms. M this visit!  Hooray!

     

Infusion time again!  Thank God for iPads!

Headed home!  See you next time, Snoopy!

     

Home at last!

And when Little Buddy isn't busy being awesome and brave, he's working to raise awareness!

Super star made the news again!

So that is all for this month, keep reading for all the details of our Make-A-Wish trip!

Height and Weight

Coming in at 58 pounds and 47 inches!

Personality

My joyful boy is still just that.  I pray everyday that his joy and resiliency remain constant.  And I am dreading sending him off to school this fall...I'm going to miss the laughs and smiles!

Developmental Milestones

We continue to see smalls gains and changes.  He seems more talkative and flexible, but we don't know if it is wishful thinking with the treatment or not.  We continue to have hope that our little buy will continue to develop.

Fun Tidbits

Just having so much fun being a big brother, especially now that Little Sweetie is able to interact with him more and more.  I love watching them together!

Until next month,
