Nene and Meme

Thank you to all of our prayers warriors for lifting up Baby Trent in your thoughts and prayers. Julie and Bill went in for another sonogram this morning and found out that although Trent’s left kidney has a mass on it, the kidney will function as normal. This is great news and we couldn’t be any happier! What’s even more encouraging is that if Trent does in fact have trouble with the kidney, the situation can be corrected in Charlottesville by one of the top urologists in the world!

While Julie and Bill were at the appointment this morning, I had the privilege of watching over little “Nene” (this is the name Hendley has given herself). Nene was a mess; constantly bossing her little cousin and telling her “no, no, no”. MR was oblivious to her disapproval until she caught Nene trying to sit on her brand new car seat. And then “Meme” appeared. Meme is MR’s alter ego (as of today). Nene and Meme were hilarious together. They were like two old women arguing over a church pew. 

The confrontation lasted throughout Regis and Kelly and ended when it was time for Meme’s morning nap. When Meme awoke, she planted herself in the car seat and settled in for another episode of the View. I’m beginning to fear that if G doesn’t install it soon, the car seat could become a very expensive and brightly colored lazy boy for the living room.

Please continue to pray for Garrett over the weekend. We go back to the dermatologist on Monday for further testing.

Mission almost impossible (in 10 seconds): Setting up the camera on auto, picking up two 20+ pound babies, running to get in place, and smiling for the camera…

    TuMama look you absolutely beautiful, between your two bookends, Nene and Meme. I sure hope I can smile like that when I keep both of them. Those two are something. Love, Gran C

    I really meant that you look rather than what I typed. All of the craziness in the family comes from my dyslexia. Again, frm Gran C

    I agree with Taren. Holding two works for you. Thanks for keeping Nene. You must have worn her out. Bill said she slept ALL day.

    Love in Christ, Kyle

    Those little girls are going to get themselves in so much trouble one day…and probably one day soon!

    The stories are precious! You look fantastic, by the way. Let us know how G’s appointment goes.

  6. What an absolutely adorable child! She is just gorgeous :)

  7. I am just waiting for the day that Nene punches out some obnoxious college boy at The Brick (or some equally local college hangout) because he was he messing with Meme…it will be life come full circle…

    So funny Carly! I love the post about the girls playing together! Who knew a car seat was so entertaining! We had a great time last night at dinner. Hope to do it again soon! I hope that Garrett’s appointment goes well, I will be praying for him. Love, Clare (aka Jessica;)
