Spring Break
Becky took Noah, Tucker, and Cade to Houston with her to visit friends for a few days. And so today, they had to do what all spring-breakers do in Texas - GO TO THE BEACH! Of course, it's still a bit chilly, but they are having a great time.

Wheels are Off!
So many things happened last week that I am just now getting caught up. But one of the most exciting was for Tucker and Cade.
Last Monday, Becky's sister, Angela, was in town. She decided today was the day for Tucker to learn to ride his bike. (Now, you need to have a little back story - last time she was in town, she decided Cade needed to learn how to swallow a pill - and he ended up throwing up all over her when she stuck in his mouth). But Angela wouldn't let something like that deter her from her end result. She took off Tucker's training wheels, put him on his bike, and sent him down the street. Tucker was yelling "don't let go, don't let go" all the way down the street - and she had stopped way back. He took off like a shot and hasn't looked back since. We are now working on him stopping (instead of just falling off his bike like's he has been doing.
The next day, Cade announces he is going to ride his bike. Now, after puking all over Angela when she tried to teach him how to swallow a pill, I was very leery on how this one was going to go. And, since Cade is deaf in one ear due to his middle ear not formed correctly - it leads to some of his coordination and balance issues.
But, Cade, surprising us all, took off and didn't look back. (Of course, we are also teaching him now how to stop and not just fall off - but that's what helmets are for!)
Becky and the boys (minus Titus) took off for Houston today to visit friends. They will pick up Aidan Thursday afternoon at the Houston airport when he arrives for Belize.
Titus and I are hanging out at the house. Lisa is with him during the day, and I'll take care of him during the night. His cough has improved a lot since last week, but he is still having some heavy secretions. We have a new medication that we started yesterday and will see how that helps.
Please continue to pray for Aidan in Belize. We've been getting reports and seen some pictures and it looks like he is having a great time.
