Tyse meets Uncle Troy

Tyse was able to meet his Uncle Troy for the first time this weekend. His Uncle is busy with school getting a doctorate in Computer Science and lives six hours away. I am hoping that if Tyse is able to get a job that he goes into the computer field. He can drill his uncle and Grandpa (my Dad) about computers.

Todd and Troy are fraternal twins and I think Tyse sensed that. He did really well with Uncle Troy. I couldn’t believe it. He usually plays shy unless you see him on a regular basis, but he was cooing and laughing with Uncle Troy like it was his Dad. I was shocked. I thought he would play some what shy at first, but he didn’t. He fooled me! I love this picture of the three of them. It is so cute! Look at Tyse’s smile…he really does have my Dad’s dimples. When my Dad comes back up to visit I want to get a good picture of him and Tyse with their dimples showing.

Thank you Uncle Troy for coming over to the house to visit. We look forward to seeing you again!


A Message to Andrea:
Thank you, cousin Andrea for the Spider Man outfit that you got Mr. Cuddles. We love it! Love, Tyse


Tyse is doing okay. He is doing a good job at hanging in there. He is waking up a couple times through the night but so far I’m able to get him to fall asleep fairly quick. I am starting to get very nervous because February 20th is slowly approaching. I hope and pray that the ENT (Ear, Nose, Throat) specialist find something when they do a bronchoscope. I hope the surgery goes really well and Tyse recovers beautifully. I hope he has no complications and he comes home the happy boy that I am use too. Please pray. Oh, Tyse is back to biting his lip again...

My biggest fear about this surgery is not finding anything, dying duing or after surgery, or bleeding and having to go back to OR room. Another fear is Tyse getting sick a day before the surgery. The only thing I can think about is this surgery. My mind is constantly racing with thoughts and emotions. I am already to go. I packed my bag three days ago.

Todd and I have a long list of things we want to do this spring if Tyse does get better. We would like to visit long distance relatives, go on vacation, and move Tyse to his big boy room. Tyse still sleeps in his crib in my bedroom. I am hoping that if he will get well enough to move upstairs to his room...if not oh well. It saves me from exercising up and down the stairs.

Take care everyone and God Bless!
