Tom and Maya

I know, I know I am HORRIBLE at updating my blog. But I am finally doing it, so here goes!

This post goes out to my oldest brother Tom and my sister in law Maya! We were able to see them a few times while we were in California for Burke's surgery. We were so grateful for their love and support during that stressful time. Maya is a doctor and so we were able to talk with her and pick her brain about the medical questions I had. They came to the hospital a couple of times and one time in particular Burke absolutely LOVED seeing them! We also loved seeing them. When ever we had company it helped our moral so much. It helped Burke's moral also. I know he was super bored with looking at that boring hospital room and boring mom and dad day in and day out.

My parents came to visit and help support us and see Burke also. It was so great to have them near also. They were a huge help! Here are pictures when they and Tom and Maya came. Good times were had by all. It was a beautiful day and we were able to take Burke out on the roof to get out a little. He LOVED it!

I think this blowing picture is by far my favorite of Burke. Maya was trying to get him to exercise his lungs and blow the flower petals out of his hands. He could barely do it, but he was determined to try. It was so cute.

Here is Tom and MAya with Burke at the awesome train at the hospital. This was our saving grace many a times. This picture is blurry of them but I love the look Burke is giving them cause it was the look he had on his face the whole time they were there. He was entranced by them and I loved it!

Tom is a teacher and he is so great with kids! He was helping Burke walk down the hallways. It was so fun to see them together.

Thank you Tom and Maya and mom and dad for coming out often to see us and help give love and support to us while Burke was in the hospital. We don't get to see my brother Tom very often and it was great for my kids to get to know him and Maya better. They were both so good with our kids and it was a nice break for Tyler and I as Burke was clearly entertained by our guests! Tom and Maya you are welcome anytime at our house- but as a warning my kids would probably be OBSESSED with you guys! We love you and hope to see you both sometime soon and thank you again for everything!
