Well, we went to Dr. A's today and our next step of the surgery process will be on October 22. Ellison will have his colostomy reversed on that day...how exciting. Please be in prayer for us because it is another surgery and there's a lot goes along with surgery....mainly mommy worrying. Dr. A did say that Ellison was doing well and moving along just as planned.

Enough about surgery...One other exciting thing that has happened this past week was that Ellison was dedicated at church.

After the dedication, Aunt Dana, Uncle Michael, and Grace Ann came over to

give Ellison all of the balloons we used for decorations. He loved them. Obviously, Daddy liked them too.

Uncle Q and Aunt Amber joined us for the dedication party.

Uncle Q has a hard time keeping his eyes open for pics. He closed them in every one.

Ellison was checking out the crowd at church.

We were very nervous about this but Ellison did really great.

It was a fabulous day. Praise the Lord and thanks to everyone that helped

make it wonderful!!!!

Has it really been a month?

I guess it really has been a month. Sorry guys! Life has definitely gotten a lot busier with mommy going back to work. Ellison has being doing so many new things lately. I try to catch them on video or with a quick picture but it is getting difficult. As you can see, he is eating new foods...we are now up to cereal, a few veggies, and bananas. He LOVES them...maybe not the greens but he still eats them. He is also rolling over...not on command. It usually happens when we aren't looking. At his last peds appt, he weighed right at 17lbs and was over 24 in long. We go to Dr. Abram's today for our next surgery update.

Ellison and his MaMa. They have become such
good buddies! I think he knows she has a prize closet
waiting for him.


Such a model!

Uncle Quinn's hat looked so cute on Ellison.

We haven't made it to a game yet, but we still

support our Tigers every week! Win or Lose:)

This is a great face while eating some yummy green beans!
