Being put in ARM's way

You may or may not know, but Dylan is going in to have corrective surgery on his shoulder tomorrow. He has two tears in his rotary cuff and then some other thing that the doctor said that I didn't understand!! (Dylan is telling me it is an abnormality of the Glenoid, which is the bone that the arm pivots on when it moves) It all started a couple of months ago when Dylan started getting really bad pain in his shoulder. He said it just kept getting worse which made him able to sleep even less. For an insomniac that isn't very good news!
So he went to the doctor who refered him to a specialist (that's what doctors do, right!) and the specialist suggested he get an MRI and now he is getting the surgery. Oh, and he will be out of work for 3-6 months depending on his recovery time! Wow, how quick things can change! So since he is going to be out of work, we are pulling the kids out of school in a couple of weeks and Dylan is going to see what being a stay at home Dad is all about. He is actually pretty stoked to spend some quality time with the kids and do all that fun school stuff with them.
Keep him in your prayers and let's hope for a speedy recovery!! I know he will do great, he always does!!

Just a little update

Well, I don't have a lot to say, just feel like saying something! First off, I am so grateful for my cute little family. Each of them brings so much into my life and I feel so blessed to be part of such wonderfulness (is that a word?). I have the best husband ever who is always there for me and supporting everything I do. He is so kind to everyone and teaches me to be a better person. Madison is the funniest little girl ever. She is quite the character, always singing and dancing around the house. She is also very loving and creative....like her daddy! She loves to "read" her books. Or at least she thinks she is reading, but it is so freaking cute. Ethan is our dramatic boy and lives in his little bubble. He does not like it if you enter his bubble and will let you know when you have done so! However he is very attached to mommy and daddy and loves to be held....a little too much. I can't help but baby him though since I know I will never have another little one. He is also a little cuddler and I love snuggling with him to read a book or watch a cartoon!
