I love you puppy




This week has been especially a good one. On the weekend my nephew came and spent the night and we had pizza and ice cream and played Monopoly until 1AM, just don't tell his mom! Then the rest of the weekend the hubby and I went shopping and I went for a run and put in about 3 miles which was a good feeling. Today I was at work and was up in labor and delivery. Did a few epidurals and one C-section for a placenta abruption at 27 weeks. The little one weighed little over 1.8 lbs. But he was a fighter so I'm keeping him in my prayers. Mom was only 16 and I'm sure has a long road ahead...keeping her in my prayers as well. Tomorrow morning I have a 4AM start time down in the open heart room. Double valve replacement - aortic and mitral valve redo. Those ones are tricky cases but will hopefully do okay. I'm so excited for our apointment at my RE next Monday I can barely sleep...hopefully it'll go okay. Just informational, but still. It's so exciting to be at that next step.

We have another appointment at her cardiologist in a couple of weeks so we hope that those go okay. Still doing the frequent feedings of mostly breastmilk and hoping for good weight gain. She continues to amaze me from day to day so I have very good faith that things will be okay. Every day that I work up in labor and delivery I have people tell me that they are hoping and praying for her so that gives me faith, you know? Her favorite thing is currently the moose on Noggin channel - she loves him so my husband has perfected his voice to sound just like him. She looks at him in admiration. It is so sweet it makes my heart smile :-) Hope everyone is having a good week and thank you so much for following along with us!

I'm sorry that I haven't been around in a while. I'm still sorta getting back on track.

I'm always amazed and how gorgeous your Brynn is! Those eyes of hers are simply stunning.

I'm soooo glad that things are inching their way towards your sparkly rainbow journey to a sibling!
