Okay, so it has been a while since we've posted anything. So much has been going on so here's a tidbit from our lives over the past month to wet your appetites for Butterfield fever.
We went camping in McCall over the Independence Day weekend and woke up one morning to see deer in our campsite. Apparently they didn't get the message that nobody is allowed on the grass. We sure did as the rangers came and warned us every evening.
Emerson the fair has to get lathered up with sunscreen whenever we do anything outside and he's such a trooper. He always sits so nicely for us and takes it like a man.
Emerson and Daddy had a most wonderful time building a sand castle, but even the big boys eventually get tired. The trip was quite the event for us. Emerson had a nasty ear infection, then got bitten by some insects, then had baseball size whelts on his thighs. We rushed home Sunday night and by some miracle they were completely gone the next day as if they had never even been there! All of this was also happening as Brent was getting a very awful sinus infection. Emerson has had so many ear infections and is allergic to three different antibiotics so we went to see an ear, nose and throat doctor. He took a 10 second look in both ears with a microscope and said, "he needs tubes" so we took him in on Monday last week and he had surgery to put tubes in his ears. The surgery lasted all of 15 minutes and he got to wake up lying in my arms. He seems so much better with the tubes. He has said many new words just in the time since the surgery and isn't pulling at his ears in pain. We are all much happier. Well that's it for all the big stuff from our side of the world for now. We'll write more later. The following is just a cute picture of Emerson from last weekend.
