Beach Bum

The last week has been a whirlwind to say the least. Our little family's world was turned upside down. A little over a week ago, Tyler was playing with Walker and found a little lump on the right side of his chest. We were definitely worried, so we visited his pediatrician the next morning. They were also worried and sent him to have a sonogram.

We didn't get the news we wanted. The doctors told us that this could be a malignant or benign growth. Of course I could only hear the worse! We took Walker for a few more tests. He had to get his blood drawn (absolutely awful) and for an X-ray. His blood work came back great, which was wonderful news! His chest also looked great in the X-rays.

We met with a pediatric surgeon the next day at the Blair E. Batson Children's hospital. The surgeon felt of the growth and feels sure that it is benign. We all feel more comfortable taking the growth out anyway to be sure.

So, tomorrow morning our little moon is having surgery. I feel like a basket case, but we will make it through this!

 Coming back from the doctor's office. Look at his little band-aid. Breaks my heart.

 Kisses from Daddy make it all better.

We've had a beach trip planned with Tyler's family for a while, which was much needed after the few days we had. Walker's doctor told us to head out and relax. (Easy to say.) Walker was the best baby to travel with. I could count on one hand how many times he cried. Sweet thing! We had a wonderful time hanging out with Tyler's family. Walker took a few cat naps on the beach and just had a blast.

We spent more time in the condo than wanted though due to rain EVERY day! We had never been to Destin where it rained so much.  I chalked it up to God telling me that there was a shark in the ocean that wanted to eat me, so he kept me away. ;)

Here are a few recent random pictures of our little star!
