Dr. Chris Meinhart

It's official...Chris now holds the title of MD. He has worked so very hard and we thank him for that. It amazes me that with a wife (who never makes demands!) and five children, Chris was not only able to survive medical school but thrive in medical school...Heavenly Father has truly blessed us.

The Meinhart Family Over the Years...

We thought we'd share some pics of our family over the last decade. Little did Chris and I know when our paths crossed 12 years ago that the outcome would be a marriage...5 children (especially since Chris was planning on having 1 child!)...living in 5 different states (especially since Tricia envisioned buying a house and growing old in it)...medical school...and lots and lots of fun times. There's never a dull moment at the Meinhart home and we couldn't imagine it any other way. Aren't families great!?

Surgery/Swimming

FYI-I wrote this blog on Saturday, but our computer was having some issues...hence the late posting!

Surgery-Chandler had an appt with an ENT doc on Monday who told us he'd need a second set of tubes for his ears and his adenoids removed. When I let the doc know we'd be flying next week he worked his magic and got Chandler scheduled for surgery ASAP. To make a long story short Chandler had surgery yesterday...all went well...and he's home recovering.

Swimming-In Texas it's very common for neighborhoods to have community pools. Thankfully our neighborhood has one...we didn't realize how important this was until we experienced "Texas heat." It's the only outside thing the kiddos do in the summer. Well today was the first of many, many trips to the pool for summer '08. It was Bella's first swimming experience and it didn't go so well. She didn't want anything to do with the water and held onto me for dear life. Thankfully she was content hanging out in her stroller watching all the kids swim. Enjoy the pics!
