Hi everybody! Sorry it has been almost a month since I've updated our blog! We have had a very crazy couple of weeks. We took our youth group whitewater rafting June 21-23 then Addie and I spent a week at my mom and dad's house. We had a really good visit and enjoyed being with everyone in Michigan! Addie and I came home late on Monday June 30th, then we all headed to Indianapolis for the 4th of July. Ryan and his dad went to St. Louis for a family wedding and his mom and I took care of Olivia and Noah while his sister, Amy, was induced. She gave birth to a beautiful little girl on July 5th. Mia Davett is doing great and we are so glad for another little one to join our family!
We came home on the 7th, then took our youth group to Kings Island on the 13th. We had fun, but I'm not so hip on being responsible for teenagers in such a large crowd...
The next week we went back to Indy for a day with Amy, Olivia, Noah and Miss Mia and Addie got to meet all of Grammy's friends at work. Ryan's mom works in the Chase Tower in downtown Indy and we had not ever taken Addie to see her there, so it was nice to meet the people she works with and for them to meet Addie and Mia.
We were home for a week and planning to leave today for a week's vacation in Wisconsin, but our plans have changed...
Ryan became violently ill early Thursday morning and by late afternoon was admitted to the hospital. He has bacterial colitis which is a very nasty infection of the colon (yuck!) and spent all day yesterday hooked up to an IV getting a lot of drugs! He came home last night and is responding well to medication, so hopefully he'll be able to recover quickly. He'll see the doctor again on Monday and then we'll go from there...looks like he'll be on medication for a couple of weeks to get completely over this. I hope to never encounter this illness again - it has been absolutely terrible for him!
So that brings us to today. I can't do a whole lot of updating on our blog because our computer has been acting up a lot lately and I can't access our pictures. This picture happened to be on Ryan's work computer so I was able to upload it from there. Addie is quickly leaving "baby world" behind and entering the fun stage of toddler hood! Everyday is an adventure!! I am a little sad about how quickly the time has gone, but I'm excited to see her grow and develop!
I'm thankful that although we never know what tomorrow will bring, our Heavenly Father does and He is infinitely wise and good!
I hope you have all been enjoying the summer! I have a lot of pictures to post, so hopefully we can get our computer running smoothly again and I can get them up for you to see!
