Update on Garrett.. So he DID NOT have to get an CT scan or MRI. I was grateful for that. He went to the ophthalmologist & he has a dermoid cyst which needs to come out.
2 times a year they have the pediatric ophthalmologist & pediatric plastic surgeon working together during surgeries all day long. The doctor said we can wait to get it out there is no real rush but, when he starts crawling more & when he starts to walk he could very well bump it & rupture it. That is what concerns them the most. So, right now we are making our decision but, leaning towards getting the surgery done May 28th @ 7:30 in the morning. He will be the first case of the day. Nate is talking to his friend who happens to be a fantastic anesthesiologist who Nate is asking if he will be willing to help out in surgery.. We feel he will be in good hands! We will all be praying for him!

A picture is worth a thousand words, hope you enjoy these pictures as much as we enjoyed the truly most excellent adventure of 11 Days and 10 Nights of some of the best experiences in our family to date.
The Inaugural Meridith Family Reunion
LOVE YA GRAN!!
Friday when we arrived in Utah nate & my mom kept this HUGE secret from me so it would be a fun surprise . It is the first time that my mom's brothers & sisters have seen each other in 18 years. It was so fun to see ALL my cousins & family. There is nothing more important than FAMILY. I love each of them so much!! My mom put SO much work into this wonderful dinner at my cousins club house across the street from them. She amazes us so much. She made each & everyone their own "goody bag" to take home. Not to mention she did one for all the kids that were there!!! Thank-you for making this happen! My Grandma has pancreatic cancer & it was her birthday wish to come & see everyone especially my mom. What a sweet reunion it was because it was the first time that my grandma & mom have seen each other since she found out she has cancer. I love all my Aunts & Uncles they truly are such a blessing in my life! What an awesome family I have!
AHHH HAWAII!!!this was great fun, Nate made his best attempt to make up on 22 months of sleep debt but between the beaches, snorkeling, swimming with dolphins, the temple, and war memorials. We spent a lot of the time going, but it was still very relaxing!

I am glad that Garrett didn't have to do the MRI and CT scan, those tests make grown men cry. He is such a cute little tyke I am positive he will be o.k.
It was great seeing the Washinton Millers, come back soon!

Glad your li'l guy didn't have to do the scan, but I'm sorry he's got to go through surgery. It'll probably end up being harder on you than him when it comes down to it though, right? I'm sure he'll be in good hands. By the way - your Hawaii trip sounded awesome...I'm soooo jealous!
