I try to document our adventures as best I can, but not at the cost of being present in the moment with my family. Part of why I do this is because it helps to provide further context into our journey. Yesterday, I had to get Gavin to Akron Children’s… Read more »
Gavin and I have been at Akron Children’s Hospital for two hours now. Not much has happened. Gavin had a basic eye exam and then some more specific testing as well. We’ve spent more time waiting for someone to simply speak with us, then anything else. My brain is still… Read more »
After taking the boys to school, we will return home for a short while before heading to Akron Children’s Hospital. Lizze will be staying home cause she has a doctor’s appointment of her own. Gavin and I will be making the trek to see his eye doctor, in order to… Read more »

Traffic was horrible today on the way to the hospital this morning. HORRIBLE. That being said, we made it to his appointment with a few minutes to spare. 😀 Emmett’s being very brave, even though he’s really nervous about getting his eyes dilated. He’s so sweet and the nurse is… Read more »
I wanted to try to get caught up on back posts and thought this would be a fun one. One of my favorite things to do during the week is take Emmett to physical therapy. Not only is his therapist really awesome but Emmett responds to her very well. He… Read more »
