Fun In Iowa: Part 3

Wow! Where has the time gone? July already? That means we're that much closer to school starting! NOOOO!! Well, Ryan is officially in his LAST year of his 20's...he turned 29 on Wed. We celebrated with lunch at Buffalo Wild Wings and ice cream!


Yum! Thanks for sharing your ice cream with me, Daddy! (Note: I know it appears as if Jack has a ridiculous haircut in this picture...I promise you, he does not.)



Haven't quite mastered the art of eating an ice cream cone yet.



The rest of these pictures are miscellaneous pictures from our time at home. They all came off of my mom's camera. They are in no order. You will notice that some of them are pre-haircut and some are post-haircut.


Lovin' me some time in the pool that Grandma and Grandpa bought me!


Cuddlin' with Uncle Brent!


Bath time in Grandmas sink!






Chewing on some yummy watermelon with Great Grandma B.!




My Grandpa B. with my mom and uncle Dan


Awwwww my parents. How cute!





This rocking chair belonged to my grandma, my mom, me, and now it's Jack's! As you can tell, Jack is right at home in it. See those crossed legs? Yeah, he does that ALL THE TIME!



Playtime with Grandma Sue! This toy used to be Uncle Jameson's!





















Heading to Farmers Market with Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt Morgan!









My grandparents on the Rosien side. Aren't they cute?



Jack is full of kisses!



You're still taking pictures of me Grandma?



My dad and grandpa. Think they look alike? Apparently they dress alike too.



I have strong legs! Just check out my thighs...



Bubbles!!


And last, but certainly not least, congratulations to our good friends Brooke and Zach who recently became engaged! Zach popped the question on the front steps on their new house! How cute! We couldn't be more happy for them!

9 1/2 Hours

9 1/2 hours until my sweet baby girl goes in for her third open heart surgery.  This isn't just any surgery.  It's a big one.  This surgery would be a big deal for a 40 year old.  So you can imagine the seriousness and high risk on a 3 week old.  I am nauseous and scared.  I pray with all my heart that her little body can handle the intensity and recovery involved with something this big.  The nurses have prepared us for the worst, which I am thankful for, but am remaining optimistic and strong in faith.  They have told me that she will be VERY sick for several days following her surgery.  She may even come back to her room in the PICU still on bypass.  Even if she doesn't come back on bypass, she could still go back on it a few days later.  In addition to all her machines and medicines now, she will also come back with a pacemaker, and possibly the ECMO (bypass) machine. Lia opened her eyes today, and looked around the ...

Praising God!!!

Lia has had a REALLY good 24 hours! She passed her carseat test! Has taken ALL her feedings orally! Feeding tube is OUT! Breathing treatments have been cancelled! Ryan and I have started a 24 hr PCS (parent care status) where we are completely in charge of all feedings and medications.  The nurse will only check on us periodically. This is done to make sure we will be able to handle everything at home. NO MONITORS!  I just walked into our bathroom with Lia...simply because I COULD! Pharmacy has come to talk to us about all her prescriptions, and how to administer all medications. Got a basket ready for all the 'skimming' supplies I'll need for home. Arrangements have been made for follow up care with cardiologist and pediatrician! Discharge, yes, I said it, DISCHARGE scheduled for Tuesday!  Ok, I'm crying now that I just typed that! Once again, thank you for all your continued support and prayer!  Don't we have an amazing God? These oral feedings r...
