We learned a lot about our brave little man’s insides today.

Tate is being referred to UW Madison for orthopedic surgery.

He is so fearless, calm, and BRAVE!

Please pray with us for our day tomorrow, as Tate will be sedated for a complete brain and complete spine MRI, a complete spine CT, and also for that ultrasound imaging that we missed on Monday. He cannot eat or drink when he wakes up in the morning, and that will be very hard for Tate.

What peace we have in knowing AND believing that Tate was fearfully and wonderfully made!!!

You are our little superhero, Tate Owen!

*I am feeling a little better each day, and was pleased to know that I am not considered contagious anymore because I finished all of the antibiotics that were prescribed!

*This finishes my blogging catch up….five new posts in a row!

Tate has been home three short weeks, and is already saying SO many words!

The other day he held up his hands and said “Where did Joe B go?” (Lane’s nickname is Joe B!)

He is starting to ask for water or milk instead of using the sign “drink!”

It seems like his English is just taking off – and he always repeats anything you ask him to.

We have been teaching him his name!

Check this out:

My personal favorite is when I am about to tell Tate no, and he says “Tate, No, No!” first!

Little charmer you are, Tate!

We love you Tate Owen!!

With a smile like that, the pile of laundry that needed folded was forgotten!
