My heart is full!
And Ivy's... Oh my goodness!!! She is just beaming!
We had the most amazing flight home. It was a mere 4.5 hours from
the time we stepped in the plane to the time we stepped out!
We live in AZ!! Incredible!
I gave Ivy her lovenox injection during the flight and had
to choke back tears as I thought about all the hardship my
sweet friend Kim and her beautiful family saved Ivy from
having to go through by arranging this flight!
Can you imagine having to give a baby a shot on a crowded airplane?
Uncle Bryan and Ivy napping on the smooth flight.
Ivy soaking it all in!
Our family and a few friends were all waiting when we landed. Ivy was
so happy to see everyone and went right to daddy and her siblings. We
drove home and as soon as we turned in to our neighborhood Ivy screamed,
HOME!!!!!!! It absolutely melted every one of us!
She has not stopped beaming since we arrived! She is just in love with Lexi.
Always looking for her and always copying her every move. She is eating
well. Not coughing or having any trouble with fluids!! She is talking like
crazy, I mean really just talking up a storm. Even the doctor commented on
it today.
We still have a bit of home nursing going on, courtesy of mommy. 4 wounds
that need dressings changed twice a day. Her lovenox shots (we stopped these
as of today). We go for INR blood tests every day. We saw the new
cardiologist today. She had an ECHO, EKG and regular exam. Her doctor was
pleased with what he saw. She goes tomorrow for another echo because the
person who did it today forgot to take photos of her coronary arteries as
well as to get her daily INR. We see the pediatrician on Friday. Add the
the fact that I do have 4 other children at home and that Im really trying
hard to just suck in every moment of this beautiful re entry and that is why
it has taken me a few days to post. I am absolutely on cloud 9!! The girls
are so sweet with each other. Ivy has picked up right where she left off
with everyone. They are sleeping well and just so so happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The house looks like a tornado hit it but I have given myself until Thursday
night to get a handle on it (I hope wednesday is an extra long day!)
Thank you everyone for checking in on us and of course for your continued
prayers!!! I promise, if there was a problem I would have let you know. We
just really needed a few days to just be a family :) God is so great an life
is so good!
