Spencer Time

On Wednesday we had to take Spencer to Birmingham Childrens Hospital so they could have a look at him and then decide whether or not they want to do an operation on him. The outcome... Yes they need to operate. He has another Hernia. The problem that we have is that since he has had an operation there before they are concerned that if they operate again the scar tissue could cause big problems with him having children in the future. So they have decided this time they will do Key Hole Surgery through his Belly Button. My poor little boy has no idea what is going to happen to him. I hate when he has to have operations. This is his 3rd in total. Last time when he was coming out of the anestetic he was not very well. Plus I hate having to make him fast. It is very difficult to tell a 4 year old that they cant eat until after the op. This all has to do with him being so premature. Hopefully this will be the last thing he has to go through. My poor little man.

We had decided that while we were so close to Costco we would run there to get a few things but his appointment took less time than expected so we had a few hours to kill before we were able to go to Costco so we went to the BullRing shopping Center. While we were there we went into the Entertainer, a toy shop, and looked around. We also took some funny pictures of him that I thought I would share on here.

I sure love this little boy. When I think about how far we have come over the past 4 years it is just amazing to me. I am daily seeing blessings from our Father in Heaven with this little man. When he was born they said IF he makes it then it will take years for him to catch up with other children. They said by the time he was 8 or 9 he should be caught up to children his age. That was very wrong with this little man he is already completely caught up and in some ways pass other children his age. I cant imagine a single minute of my life without Spencer. He is so special to me.
