we were always a co-sleeping family. when i was preggo with ez, sherp would snuggle up on my belly.
the sweetest.
Friends came to visit and sherpa greeted them kindly. he loved to be on my lap; i am about 7 months preggo with ez.

playing catch with e in the backyard.
at the beach (the wonderful town of buxton!) last spring for a camping trip.
getting some love from lil e. after this, she threw a pad of paper and a pen on the floor and said, "sherpie, draw!"
out on a nature walk. can you see his heart shaped butt?
last month, getting more love from ez.

he had to have surgery today. he had a lump on his leg and it grew over the past week. he was licking it and it started to bleed some. so, we had it removed for him. he seems to be doing really well in his recovery now. we are just loving on him and have been praying for him all day. please pray with us for him. ez is learning so much through this time; right now she's staring at his incision curiously.
