I added on new pictures of Ryan. We got to watch the men cut down the tree in our parking lot. The tree is right over our parking spot, good thing we moved the car! It took them over two hours. At the same time the city truck came and flushed the sewers. We had an exciting time outside. Ryan was dressed as Superman and the workers kept saying they needed his help. He felt like such a big boy. I also added pictures of some of the cakes I've made in the last year. The pink and purple heart cake was my latest cake for Ryan's friend Emma. It was lots of fun to make.

Our Exciting Night

Well, about 4:00 this morning Cherag woke me up crying out in pain. He wanted to go to ER but couldn't get out of bed, so I called 911. They came and took him to the H. Ends up he has a kidney stone he is trying to pass. We got home around 3:00 this afternoon exhausted and he is doped up on pain killers. Fortunately, my in-laws came and Papa stayed with Ryan while Granny and I stayed with Cherag. Please pray that this will pass sometime soon. I don't want to see Cherag is so much pain. People say it's like child birth for guys, and I believe them. One funny thing, I was trying to help Cherag with his breathing and relaxing. He pushed me away and stated "You have no idea what I'm going through!" I couldn't help but laugh at him right then and there. It was very weird being on this side of it, because I swear I did the exact same thing to him when Ryan was born.

Well, here is a new photo finally. I've been waiting for my friend to send it to me. Everyone at church loved the way Daddy and Ryan matched.

We are really enjoying our summer even though it is busy. Cherag is busy with some contract jobs (PTL for that) and I've been working summer school. When we are not on the bus, Ryan and I have been spending our days at the pools. This summer, thanks to Cherag sharing his birthday money, Ryan and I got summer passes for the community pools. He is such a great swimmer. He just wears his little floaters on his arms and he goes. He obviously can't touch the bottom of the pool at any point so He'll just kick his little legs until he gets to the deep end. He wants to go down the water slide and diving so badly. I tell him to ask the life guard and he does, but the answer is always when you are seven. So now, instead of asking me, "Mommy, am I five yet" so he can ride a horse, now he asks if he is seven so he can dive. Silly boy won't even jump off the side of the pool yet. He just wants to be like all the big kids.
Our other big news is that we are in the process of moving. We are going to be moving in with my in-laws in August. We are trying to save money for a new house and want to give this a shot. Please pray for us that this is the Lord's direction for our family.

Summertime is so great we love the fresh air and warm sun. Spirits are up and especially now that Ryan is getting older we can really enjoy it. We are going camping the first week of August and can't wait. We'll take lots of pictures of that trip.

Hope you all are enjoying summer like we are!

Happy July 4th everyone!

Happy Canada Day!
