I hope that we start being able to drop some of these doctors by the end of our plan year, so we start the new year off with a minimum of doctors. But, it looks like we will be having surgeries into the next plan year, so I guess it's a wash.
Anyhow, as of this point we are still a go, holding strong at 3 surgeries 6 weeks apart. This is good news.
The bad news is that after his pull-through, we will have to smother his little bottom with a mixture of various petroleum based products to protect him from his own stool. The bad news about that is our cloth diapering dreams just got whisked out the window. Petroleum based products don't wash out of cloth properly, and hinder the absorbency of cloth diapers. Damn. Now we have to get with our diaper service and see what we can work out. Boo.
ECI is coming tomorrow morning for the makeup appointment of the one that I had to cancel. This should be interesting.
We bought Everett a new mobile today. It has lights and stars. But, it has to float SO high above his crib, it seems kind of uninteresting. Grandpa Lynn's star swing is still his favorite starry mobile.
Okay, here's what I know you've been waiting for. I'll even bet many of you just scrolled right down to the pictures (that's what Daddy does. :) ).
Here are new pictures from our mini photo shoot on Wednesday.
The grandparent's meeting went well yesterday. Everyone seemed ready to take care of the little man. :) Hopefully the enthusiasm will continue. :) At least it was nice having everyone together to socialize a bit. If only Kim had been able to be here, this would have been one of the few occasions where we would have had all of the grandparents together. Hopefully we will have everyone together next year for Everett's birthday. :)

ReplyDeleteMargot...you look beautiful!!! I love the new pictures. So happy to see that everything is a go with the grandparents keeping Everett while you and Dylan work. I don't think you have anything to worry about...regarding them getting bored with the job!!!! Just remember I am available if you ever need a last minute babysitter.
ReplyDeleteI learn fast and would be happy to help out anytime. Just give me a few minutes notice!!! I love the picture of Everett smiling!! I know God has special plans for this little guy. I will continue to pray for you, Dylan and Everett.
Dylan....It's so hard to believe you are now a husband and father. You have been given a hugh responsibility and I know you will continue to rise to the ocassion. I love you and if you ever need anything you just let Aunt Katanna know.
Everett....you are going to be the best thing that has ever happened to our families. You will teach us what real courage is!!! Godspeed my precious nephew!!!
May God continue to take care of Everett, Dylan and Margot. They so need your love in the upcoming months.
I love you three..
