Dear Family and Friends:

Sorry that it has been so long since the last update.  End of summer/beginning of school is our excuse…..  The Marys are doing great!  Still eating through the G-tube, but gaining weight and developing at a good rate so we are happy with their progress.  So are the Doctors .  Baby Ryan is doing really well.  He eats like a normal Govea and we expect him to catch Elizabeth by Christmas.  Right now Ellen is 19.10, Elizabeth is 17.9 and Ryan is 13.10.

Megan, Michael and Nicholas are the best big brothers and sister in the world!  They are changing diapers, dressing babies, calming sad babies, hooking up the feeding bags, cleaning up puke,  loving and hugging.  We are so proud of how responsible they all have been.  With very little complaining.  

As you can imagine, we are busier than ever.  Chaos is the norm and we are learning to enjoy it.    

Oh yeah, Ellen started walking last week!  

Peace, Love and Blessings to all of you!!  Bo, Stacy, Megan, Michael, Nicky, Ellen, Elizabeth and Ryan
