A true pirate never sheds the outfit. Sicily has much to learn....

Sicily loves to play the piano WITH Brooke. I'm not sure how much Brooklyn enjoys it, but she is nice and sits on the bench with the wild cousin Sis.

One of 2 family BBQ's we had over the weekend complete with Dallin's dutch oven cooking!

My mom came home from the hospital last night. Brooklyn was still in the ICU, and they are going to be doing another MRI today to see how things are going. She is very sore. This time the Dr. went right in the back of the head so Brookie does not want to move around much at all. She did give my mom knucks so that is improvement from the day before! Brooklyn is not wanting to swallow so she has a lot of stuff in the back of her throat which they had to suck out a few times yesterday. It is unclear if the lack of swallowing is from the tube she had down her throat from surgery making her throat sore, or whether it is a negative side effect from the surgery. We are hoping it is a temporary setback. Her recovery is going a bit slower this time around, but we are hoping she will continue to progress and at least be moved out of ICU today. Thank you for all of the texts and calls. We appreciate all your love and support!
