Honey Creek

We enjoyed a night away last night to Honey Creek Resort on Lake Rathbun.  We had a blast with our friends, the Olesen's!  Highly recommend it for a small get away, especially with kids!  There is a fun indoor pool area, and gorgeous lake setting. Ryan and I both agreed that we would like to go back again sometime.

Jack on one of the slides!  This one comes off a pirate ship, so of course he loved that!

Gorgeous fireplace!  Jack and Lia look so tiny standing there!
Jack thought maybe these rocks would turn into trolls (you'll only understand this if you've seen Frozen!)

The sun was so bright!

Skipping rocks.  Their goal was to get the rocks to skip onto the ice!
This photo is not from Honey Creek, but thought I would throw this one in from St. Patricks Day with my girls, Amy and Jessica.

 In other news: Lia turns 2 next week!  We are having a party this Saturday with my side of the family, and a party next weekend in Fairbank for Lia and her cousin, Zach, who has the same birthday as her!  Be sure to check back for pictures!  Hope everyone is enjoying their spring break!

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.

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!

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...
