We Had A Blast!

Jassen and I had a great time in Cincinnati. Friday we had the chance to see Leyton Hewitt play Carlos Moya and Roger Federer play Almagro. That evening we watched James Blake defeat fellow American Sam Querrey and Nicholas Devydenko defeated David Ferrer. That night we got autographs from Sam Querrey and James Blake. Saturday morning we watched Federer defeat Hewitt. That afternoon we walked around the grounds and had the opportunity to be on ESPN2. Jassen was seen behind the commentators desk during the afternoon broadcast. Later we caught Patrick McEnroe doing a comercial for USTA, and then got his autograph. That evening we watched Blake defeat Davydenko. I got another autograph from Blake on one of his past magazine covers. We also had the chance to see the Bryan brothers play in a doubles match. Sunday we watched the Doubles Final and the Mens Singles Final. Unfortunately the Bryan brothers lost. Federer defeated Blake. Things weren't goint JB's way. But he was playing his heart out. This was definitely was trip we will take again and again. We were really amazed at how close you can get to the players.

8 Hours Until We Leave!!

We took Dakota to Owensboro to stay with his Nina and Pappaw. We left on a good note. We just hope it stays that way. They have plenty of things scheduled for him. We will miss our little guy.

We are soo excited. We get to see Federer, Hewitt, James Blake, Querrey, Davydenko, Moya, Almagro, and Ferrer play. Querrey beat Roddick today. We were pretty upset. We were really looking forward to seeing him. We will have plent of pics when we return. I've borrowed a good camera, and we show hope for the best. :)

Cincinnati Here We Come!!

One More Week!! Yes, next Friday we will be sitting in the grand stands watching some of the top male tennis players in the world. We are soo excited. Or at least I am :) Jassen and I are going to the Western Southern Financial Group Master Series tournament to watch the men play. This is our gift to each other for our 5th Anniversary. We will start Friday morning with the quarterfinals, and then Saturday we will attend the semifinals, and then Sunday is the final. We also get to watch the Doubles final. Can't wait!!

Skrawny Kid

Well, I took Dakota in for his annual check-up. We were also going to discuss his weight, and his MIC-KEY button. He is growing....Taller. He's now 37 in. tall. But he didn't gain an ounce. We are soo frustrated because we feel we have tried everything. Routine eating schedule, high calorie drinks, grazing all day, but nothing. The only "good" thing is Dr. Ransdell hasn't demanded that we go back on his feeds. St. Mary's now has an official Childrens Hospital. They have added a few specialized clinics, one of them being a feeding/ nutrition clinic. So, we are waiting to here when our appt. will be to meet with Dr. Carmicheal?. Hopefully she will be able to see Dakota eat during a meal, give us a specific menu and times, or even gives us some hints on positive reinforcement to get him to eat. We will just have to wait and see. So at Christmas he might weigh 26 lbs, or 30 lbs. We can only hope and pray for the

30 lbs. Ohh wouldn't he look healthy. :)
