So here is a picture of my father right after his surgery on Tuesday. Everything went as planned and just like the obstinate P.I.T.A. that he is he is already trying to do way more than he should. They went in though his neck and did all the work to his spine through a little hole that is now completely covered by that awesome white bandage that he has to have till it falls off by it's self.

This second picture would be Tanner's first "Big Boy Food" as mommy calls it. It was a feast of sweet potatoes and then some more sweet potatoes. I didn't get to watch it but I hear that he absolutely loves them. If he could he would shovel the whole thing in his mouth as fast as baby possible(i was thinking humanly but he doesn't have the control as much as he will some day and babies eat a lot less.......except for Tanner) he would have. His looks and actions, like grabbing mom's hands would suggest that Caitlin is slow to feed. We are still doing well just looking for a place of our own to get out of our parents hair.
