Roise People At the Beach
A new family photo for the profile. (more OR photos at PR Photography)
Father and son--cameras and rubberband guns.
Three hooligans who awakened at 6:30--this is about half and hour later down at the cape.
Oh yeah, and Joe and Jamey came down and visited us. We had a bonfire with smores and good talks. The uncles continue to surprise us with the fact that they can grow up. For instance--the TV didn't work this trip and it didn't bother them at all (WOW). Also, they didn't play the video games at all (Jamey only threatened to once).
Moni is enjoying the beach-- very colorfully.
Claire and I do take turns carrying the chunk.
She's not really as chilly as she looks, Grandmas. It's actually been a very nice warm trip to the beach.

Nelly Update
On Tuesday of this past week we took Michelle to the Shriner Children's Hospital in Portland, Oregon for an initial check-up. We talked to a plastic surgeon, an ENT, and a speech therapist all in the same place and we have a "care coordinator." All in all this seems like a much more sane approach to the process. We are still waiting to hear what the final plan is, since the doctors didn't get to review the report from the speech evaluation we had last month. The tentative plan is to have another surgery in a year and to evaluate Michelle again in 6 months. Waiting improves the chances of having a successful surgery (that won't come undone). The other balancing factor, of course, is Michelle's speech development and any bad habits she might be developing as she tries to compensate for her cleft. Thank you for your prayers and please continue to pray for wisdom for the doctors so that the surgery will happen at the right time and will be completely successful.
