Yesterday was a rough day.  Samuel had his 18 month appointment, though I am normally super excited and thrilled to get all the stats on him this time I couldn't help but only hear the negative things.  Samuel has made so much progress for where we could be, but if you look at what a "normal" 18 month old child should be do I suddenly get tears in my eyes and get of the feeling of we will never get there.  It's easy until i'm reminded, then it just gets a little sad and depressing.  But God is and will continue to supply everything we need to get through every single day.  The days aren't always fun and easy but we get through them.
Continue to pray that I would look only to Christ for my joy and strength.That I would rejoice in everything and hold fast to the blessings and not dwell on the negative.
Here are pictures from the last three days...i'll try and post today's some time this evening so i don't get behind.
Oh, Samuel was 29 1/2in, 22.12lbs(32%), and his head circumference was 17 1/4.  Of all of those he is now in a percentile for his weight, so we are very encouraged by that. :)

 These are the pictures from Saturday, I put my hat on him...He melts my heart! So cute!

 The one of Samuel is from yesterday, monday.  It was a gloomy day so we stayed inside not as many cute photo ops.  haha

This is from Sunday! Scott, Evan, and Cliff Hilton, all guys from church helped Scott get the rest of the muck and nasty stuff out of the bottom of the pool.  The liner is now completely out and we can have someone come and look at it.  Praying it's not to terribly expensive and that we can save the necessary money to have it up and running by next summer.

Hope your all having wonderful weeks so far and I pray that each of you would truly know that Love of Christ!

Much love from Kentucky!
