Carly loves water! She loves to swim and play in any water she comes across but most of all she loves the bath. She could spend hours in the bath. I will often leave her in the bath and go into the next room. I listen to her splash and will call her name occasionally to hear her reply. Last night I was checking my emails while she was bathing. I called to her and got no reply, so I called again, no reply. So I jumped up and ran to the bathroom and she was just playing and ignoring me. Great! I asked her if she wanted to get soapy to which she replied that she wanted to play some more. I left and went back to checking my emails. A few minutes later I called her name and got no reply again. I called out, "Carly, what are you doing?" To which she replied, "I'm not answering you!" Thanks!
Carly also has a new best friend, SHAMU! We went to build-a-bear to make Tyler a bear and apparently they now have shamu stuffed animals. Carly wanted shamu so so bad so we gave in and got it for her. Now shamu goes every where she does, and I do mean every where! To bed, at the dinner table, in the car, in the store... she was mad at me for about an hour on Sunday because I told her she couldn't take shamu to church. Every night when she does to bed, I have to say goodnight and I love you to Carly and shamu. Heaven forbid shamu should get his feelings hurt! I have a feeling we will definitely make use of our sea world passes this year!
Quick update on Tyler. He is still in the PICU but is doing well. His heart is working well, his fungal infection is starting to go away, and his throat is healing (He had a hard time coming off the ventilator). Right now we are trying to wait patiently for his throat to finish healing and his breathing to return to normal. I think once he is breathing completely on his own, the doctors will move him to intermediate care and then home shortly thereafter. The hardest part is that his recovery is based completely on him and he doesn't seem too concerned at speeding things up. :) Thanks to everyone again for your love and prayers!

i'm glad carly has a new friend to keep her busy while tyler is away, and i hope he makes it home soon! we'll be heading out to san diego in june, hopefully we'll get to see you guys!
Uh oh, Carissa, I think Carly sounds exactly like her "fish" mother! I do remember plenty a time going swimming with you every time we'd come to CA for a visit and also plenty a time that you would ignore your dear cousin as you were much too busy swimming around! HA! I'm so glad you get to see how it feels now to be ignored while others are busy swimming!!!
I love that she got to get her very own Shamu and that little Tyler boy is doing well. I have got to get out there to see you guys! We miss you.
Little Carly is so adorable. I know I've told you this before but Brandon was OBSESSED with Big Bird! Sounds like Carly has this same sort of obsession. So cute, I love it. I will continue to pray for sweet little Tyler. I'm so glad he is doing as well as he is. Give him extra kisses from me! Love you all!
I can attest to the shamu...when I called my mom last week Carly had shamu with her and seemed very concerned for him. We hope and pray that Tyler will get to come home soon!
We are so glad that Tyler is still improving. I know it's so hard that it's taking so much time but you guys are so great and patient. We hope he comes home soon! We love you guys!
