Surgery Completed

Hi Folks,

A few weeks have passed since my last post so thought it was time to give an update. Yesterday was Julianna's palate surgery. We left the house bright and early at 6:30am to be there for 8:00am. We arrived on time and received our paperwork and then sat in the waiting for the appointed time. 10:10am. At 9:40am they called to say they we are their way down to take her upstairs only to call back 2 minutes later to say there was a delay. Finally at 10:40am they came and we went up to another waiting room outside surgery to wait again. We talked to the surgeon and to the anesthesiologist before actually going into the OR at about 11:30am (I got to go in with her)where they proceeded to try to get in an IV, to no avail. So they used the mask to get her off to sleep. When we saw her later they had tried in both hands and it ended up in her foot. Amazingly enough not 24 hours she was released and is doing great here at home. Her mouth doesn't seem to be causing her any great discomfort and she is eating just fine. Stephen stayed the night with her and was kicked out of his bed at about midnight because they needed it for another little girl. We are so thankful she is on the mend so quickly. She is quite the little trooper.

ROCK BAND DRESS UP

Well folks, it has been awhile. I thought it was time to share a few new pictures of a rock band dress up day. Julianna had a blast and was quite in character. Jacob tells me not to post any of him but they really are fun to look at. A good time was had by all!!!










Julianna also dressed up in a ladybug costume and liked it so much she wouldn't take it off for quite awhile.

And lastly a prim and proper Julianna dressed for church.

Not flesh of my flesh, Nor bone of my bone.
But still miraculously my own,
Never forget for a single minute,
You didn't grow under my heart, but in it.
