Prayer Request

This is from some of our friends. Please read the following and pray for their son...


Friends,

My four-year-old son, Max Middlebrook is in the hospital fighting hard. It started out as E Coli, and has progressed into HUS, a syndrome that attacks the organs.

My request is this - I've set up a blog, and would appreciate anyone that's willing to go to the blog and a comment. We are going to get a map and put pins in it so he can see where people are coming from, so if you wouldn't mind, sign your comment with your first name and tell us your location.

Also, please feel free to spread this around to your churches, ministries, co-workers, whomever - the more notes, the more pins, and the more pins, the more smiles!

You can leave a note here...

Thanks so much!

Sam

18 months

I've been a super bad blogger. Sigh.
Where did summer go? Suddenly, one day last week it got cold and rainy. Wierd. Our afternoons have still been warm and nice though but there's still an obvious change in the weather.
The boys had their 18 month check up last week (I think) and here are the stats....
Jackson: 24 lbs, 8oz (30th percentile), height: 34.25 inches (92nd percentile)
Jaden: 25 lbs, 12 oz (50th percentile), height: 34.5 inches (95th percentile).
They are doing well and while my dr isn't really one to say they've "caught up" with babies their age, they are now in all in the "white zone" on paper which means that a baby not premature that fell into that range they would not worry about (which makes sense). So they are doing quite well.
They babble a mile a minute and are testing out new things. Fortunately it hasn't occured to them to climb out of their crib yet - because I think they could. They love going to the playground and whenever we pull up to one they start cheering and clapping. Only problem is that sometimes Jaden throws a fit when we have to leave.
I don't have too many pictures lately and the ones I do are still on the camera. So....they will have to wait!
