Father's Day

Father's Day is going well and has a lot more meaning to it this year. It is 500 degrees outside with the humidity, so we are staying in - not to mention that I have a sinus infection that is making my head feel like a pressure cooker. Troy has prepared his Father's Day meal because he is a good husband who feels bad for his wife. We did manage to make it to the Waffle House for breakfast.

Troy met with Dr. Riley at the beginning of this week for his monthly visit and everything still looks fine. The picture above is of Dr. Goldsweig with his Mickey ears that we brought back for him from Disney. Karen, also in the photo, is his head nurse. Dr. G., if you are still reading the blog, no offense, but I can't say that we miss you all that much. Not coming to that office on a regular basis is the best medicine that Troy has had yet! We will see you next month though and we do look forward to saying hello. Troy has had some pain still, but is doing much better and seems to improve very slowly. He has his PET scan coming up in the beginning of July and is naturally nervous. He looks great though for what he has been through.

Derek is turning 5 on Tuesday and has Batman coming to his party. He is ultra excited. We have been very busy every week since school got out. We try and come up with somewhere to go each day. We have been to a firehouse tour, the lake, the movies, Centennial Olympic park, and to other local parks and play areas meeting up with friends here and there. He has had some playdates with old classmates which he really enjoys. Unfortunately the heat is coming and we don't do well with the GA summer temperatures so we will have to find some indoor activities along with the pool. Derek is doing gymnastics on Fridays and Ryan wants to do ANYTHING that big brother is doing. I have Ryan signed up for St. Catherine's Preschool 2 days a week (3 hours each day). This will be interesting when it starts in August. I don't know how he will do without Mommy, but hopefully he will do well. We are off to a good start to the Summer. Troy is on vacation this week and we look forward to spending it together as a family.
