Look How Busy I Am!

Lia continues to do well at Children's. We are 4 days into our stay and she is getting close to being able to go home. They are adjusting some of her medications and she can't quite decide to stay off her oxygen all the time so it may be a day or two longer. She is still smiling her awesome smile to everyone she meets. We thought we were going to get to meet some of the Dallas Cowboys this morning, but ended up down in the echo dept while they were here. Miss Lia was definitely disappointed to miss that chance (but not as sad as her mommy). She was decked out in pink Cowboys gear just in case. She did, however, get a chance to visit with Santa yesterday. I'm amazed at all the cool stuff Children's does for these kiddos. Imagine how cool it was for all those little boys who got to hang out with Jason Whitten and Marion Barber this morning. Have I mentioned that I'm really sad to have missed it??? We did manage to snap some cute pics of Lia with all her pink Cowboys stuff.

Guess what? Lia's decided she does like to eat! We have seen the biggest change in her eating. I guess she just feels that much better. This surgery took some of the workload off her heart and she must be feeling it. She had to be sedated for her echo this morning and was fussy because they made her go without food for several hours. I'm so used to having to force-feed her every few hours...it's been a nice change.

That's all I've got for ya...we're just hanging out and trying to get her home. It shouldn't be much longer now. Thanks again for all the messages, calls, and texts...we love hearing from you guys. Keep praying...no need to stop now.
