Too tired to write commentary:-) Just enjoy the pics!!!
Playing in the kitchen sink at nana's house.
People ask me all the time about what medicines that Reed takes. This should give you a little idea of what keeps his new heart working. He will not have to take this many meds his whole life. The amount that he takes will decrease significantly after one year of transplant.
I think he takes more meds in one day than I have taken all year. Pictured below are the meds for two days om two separate rows. He gets them at 6am, 10am, 2pm and 10pm. We are so very thankful for how far the transplant procedure has come through the years and how improved the meds are. It is still a little crazy to me that these are what keep our sweet Reed alive!!

Wow! I haven't commented in a long time, but I've been keeping up :) I can't believe how fast they're growing! They really look a lot more alike in these pictures...it looks like Reed is starting to catch up! They both look great...love the sink baths!

Still praying for Reed's little heart...and you keeping up with all that goes with that! Wow...I can't believe I complain about having to get a few days worth of antibiotics down one of mine!

Sink baths are so cool. Cause you have limited space and the sprayer. Thats when you know your kids love the bath time. Way to g Nana. As everyone is sayong Reed looks like he is catching up to his brother. Can't wait to see them and here them interchange. I hope they talk your ear off like me and Nana. It will never be boring at your house. And thank the good Lord that they can do a transplant. Love and kisses Gram Always in our prayers.
