Mommy report:Waiting...

Some pics of our morning so far... Getting the vitals done.


The belly before shot...


"Are you done messing with me yet?"


Here we are in the waiting room. Thank goodness that SLCH has patient-accessible wireless!! She had a rough patch last night, unrelated to this g-tube stuff, but she had some belly pain or something that woke her and me for about 40 minutes last night. I was worried that she would be somehow compromised today, but they didn't seem bothered by it. Most of you know that she never cries--like she's had maybe 4 episodes her whole life when she's cried for more than 2 minutes. And she screamed for at least 20 minutes, then sobbed on and off and complained for another 20 or so. Very unlike her. BUT...this morning she's been peachy, except for residual snot in her nose from all the crying last night. She was in a good mood from when we got her up at about 5:45 am till we handed her over at about 8:15 am or so.

Anesthesiology came to explain everything and verify health history. Then the pediatric gastroenterologist came to explain the procedure and also verify health history. All questions were answered, and off we go.

They estimate about an hour to 90 minutes total for the anesthesia, so it won't be a long wait like the last surgery. (9 hours for the open-heart surgery on 2/28/07.) Muncher and I are here in the waiting room, both of us with our laptops out and going strong. What tech-addicts we are! My parents will be up sometime today, as well as a few siblings here and there, and my in-laws will be around later too. So we've got a great bunch. But it's kind of nice right now to just have the peace and quiet.

Oh, and I'm still congested, but not as bad, so thanks for the prayers for my cold or whatever this is...

I'll update again once we get in the room.

Streamlining the blogs

I know it's been forever, and yes, Facebook is much to blame.  For as long as I held out and didn't join, now I see it's simplicity (and it's ability to suck up all my online time!!). BUT--After much pondering, I've decided I'm not giving up on blogging! Sometimes a narrative or story will be better served in a blog format, so I'm combining blogs into one.   Intentional Family is our new all-in-one blog for the goings on of our family, Braska's progress, celebrations, and challenges, as well as the amazing rise of little sister Kinlee. Other places you could check out if you so choose would be our new business Larae Photography LLC on Facebook or on the web at www.Larae-Photo.com , or the page for my hobbies-gone-busy Just RK Designs . So if there ARE any blog readers still out there, please come on over to the new place and join up for the ride.  All the old posts from the 3 previous blogs will be there soon so you can catch up if you need to!  ...

Happy 6 months to me!

I'm 6 months old today. Wow...it seems like a lifetime!! Mommy helped me put together a neat thing to share with you, but you should know that it's really for my dad.
