Field Trip

Well, I survived the first field trip of the year! The pumpkin patch! What do all teachers hope for at field trips? Perfect weather and lots of parent volunteers! Luckilly, I had both! The students had a great time!

The pumpkin patch also had a petting zoo. Little did I know that as she was feeding the goat, there was a turkey staring me straight in the eye! Ahhhh!! I ran away sooo fast and took pictures elsewhere.


TONS of hay bales to climb on!


Slide going down into hay bales.




Who says teachers can't have fun?

Ok, so I didn't get any actual pictures of any pumpkins, but I do promise they were there, and everybody got one. We also went through a cool corn maze that the kids loved! There was also a hay rack ride! Good times had by all today!

You'll have to stay tuned, because on Friday, Jack's daycare is going on a field trip to the pumpkin patch and...wait for it....RYAN is going as a chaperone!! He promised to take lots of pictures for me, because I'll be at work! What a great daddy!

Oh, and one more thing! My mom is coming down to Wichita for the weekend! Yay!!! We have lots of fun stuff planned! Can't wait to see her! (Although, I think she might be more excited to see Jack!)

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...
