The Alleman Family: It's happening tomorrow!

It's happening tomorrow!

I wrote a few days ago about my brother Kendall and sister-in-law Shelly, who are expecting a little baby who has spina bifida. Well, we just found out today that they have been selected for surgery, so tomorrow morning, Shelly and little baby Kaitlyn will go through intrauterine surgery in San Francisco. We are hoping and praying for the best and would appreciate your faith, prayers, good thoughts, or whatever on behalf of their family. Thank you!

Svedi Pie said...: The pre-natal surgery sounded the most promising (although riskier). It's such a good things they can be in this program! Good luck to them!; July 16, 2009 at 7:29 AM

Famous quotes by Joshua

"Mister Micah Zicah Wicah!"

"Playing footsies with mommy, oh yeah!" (ask us if you want the context here)

"Here, Mommy, let me help you get up, because you don't know how to get up with a baby in your tummy."

Joshua: "Mommy, I love you."
Mommy: "I love you, too, son."
Joshua: "ANGRY BIRDS!!!!"

(After falling off a swing at the park, he starts whimpering)
Mommy: "Come here, Joshua, and tell me the story."
Joshua: *climbs up on my lap, then sniffles* "Um, once upon a time, I was on the swing..."

"I gotta tell ya somethin'."

"I'm doing the I love you sign! I'm still doing it! I'm still doing it!" (which he shouts as we exit his room at bedtime)

Mommy: "Is London (girl at daycare) your girlfriend?"
Joshua: "Yes, and Nicky (boy at daycare) is my boyfriend."

Mommy: "Do you know who is coming over tomorrow?"
Joshua: "Yes, I do!"
Mommy: "Who?"
Joshua: "What?"
Mommy: "You just said you know who is coming over. Who is it?"
Joshua: "I don't know."

Mommy: "It's a party!" (because my sister and brother-in-law were in the car with us when I picked Joshua up from daycare)
Joshua: (looking out the window) "Aww, I missed it!"

"Mommy, the sun is coming up to say hello to me!"

Grandma says: "I love you, Joshua." Joshua responds: "No, you don't! Mommy and Daddy love me!"

"Mommy, can my pet watch TV?" (referring to a large smiley-faced metallic balloon)

Grandma says: "Talk about your mixed metaphors!" Joshua says: "Not my mixed bananaphores!"

"Daddy, can I give you a hug and a kiss?"

"Mommy, you're so fart (smart)."

"I want to play with my frains (trains)."

"Say saw on Moldy Feet." (Mulberry Street)
