Final Update on Zachary..

David and I are pleased to say that Zachary's EEG came back negative on Friday and the doctor truly feels that he has Benign Paroxysmal Vertigo. This is a problem with the inner ear and although there is not a "cure" for this through treatment or medicine, they are hoping he will grow out of this. The one thing that we are now praying is that this does not turn into childhood migraines which is a great possibility but we know that our God is bigger than any possibility and we are holding on to that hope.

After Zach's EEG, we went to see our godson Ethan in Mt. Pleasant for his second birthday. Zachary had a blast playing outside as well as with children his age. We had a great time together and it was great for us to see our college roommates and wonderful friends Dustin and Jess. I will post some pictures soon from the event.

Thanks again to all of you who have been praying for our little guy. He is so precious and I have to tell you that he says his prayers now every night and will even ask to pray specifically for certain people and if Mommy does not pray with him, he is persistent until it is done. Zachary is also starting to somewhat understand that we now have a baby coming in May and he will refer to Mommy's big belly as the baby and we have even been practicing with a baby doll. The only problem is that Zachary wants to hold the baby doll and touch its eyes all the time. :) We are having fun so far and are eagerly anticipating this new little one coming into our family. Love to all of you.

We are back from Florida....

Hello All! Well, we have made it safely back to Michigan and boy was it cold when we landed--YIKES!! We had a wonderful time in Florida with David's family as well as Mom and Dad Gilmore who were down vacationing. Enjoy some of the photos. Zachary loved the warm weather and wanted to play outside all of the time. He wore his grandparents out. He also enjoyed fresh Florida Oranges and called it, "Orange Juice" because they were so juicy!!!

When we returned from our trip everything seemed normal until Thursday evening 03/08/06 when Zachary had another "spell". This time his Mommy saw it from start to finish and it was not too pleasant. To make a long story short, we were able to get into the Pediatric Neurologist on 03/09/07 and he really feels that Zachary has an inner ear problem. He is going to complete an EEG on 03/23/07 to determine that there is no seizure activity. Please pray that there are no more episodes from now until them and that everything comes back fine.

Lastly, we had a wonderful opportunity to have another ultrasound and we were able to see our little baby again. No one else still knows the sex of the baby except for David and it was wonderful to see how much this little baby has grown in 10 weeks. I will post some pictures from the ultrasound as soon as we can get them scanned. We love you all and keep in touch!!
