October

































































































Last October 1st Casher was released from the hospital. I remember walking out of the hospital doors with him and tearing up thinking this is his first breath of fresh air. It was a beautiful fall day in Denver. I was beyond grateful, overwhelmed, exhausted, exuberant...how many emotions can live in one person at one time?! I remember all of your support at that time and I can't believe how wonderful you are that you are still following our amazing little journey.

Our little Casher is amazing himself. He has healed. His scar from the g-tube looks really good. It healed up perfectly. He is off of the formula and drinking whole milk like a champ. He is eating more and more and his gas pain and all pain associated is pretty much gone. He is still on prevacid which helps with reflux and it does seem to help him still so we are thankful that is working.

As you can see from the photos he is super busy and super adorable. I think it is safe to say that if you have followed us this far you agree that he is adorable. He is walking more and more - still a little unstable but getting there. He is in the Children's Program at BSF, the bible study I attend, every Thursday morning. He loves to eat his snacks, play with his aunts, go out in his wagon, pat Ginny, and explore and climb everything! Life is good. God is good.

Update on the boy
































































Well, as you can see from the pics Casher is doing amazing. He got his feeding tube out on Tuesday! We are so thankful. It would have been 1 year on the 15th that he had the surgery to put it in. It is amazing what a difference a year makes. It's God's perfect timing. Cash is eating great and growing great.

I remember clearly how fragile he was after that surgery. He was so little and so sick. Now to see him try to climb UP the slide is...a true miracle. We love each day we all get to spend together. Casher is a determined little guy. He knows what he wants and he goes for it. He is sweet and quiet one minute looking through a book and yelling loudly the next trying to make his point. He really likes to laugh and he cries freely when he is hurt. Life is good.

August...

























If you are going through difficult circumstances right now, just remember god is with you. He has a great purpose for you. Turn to him, seek his face, be faithful and trust in his perfect plan. I was reminding myself of that today. One year ago was a challenging time for me with Casher in the NICU. It was a challenging circumstance. I'm glad god is bigger than my circumstances!! I'm so thankful for how far He has carried me and Casher.
