Heart Cath Update
We heard from Naomi's cardiologist today and he has opted to wait on her heart cath/balloon procedure. The plan is to have another Ecocardiogram done in February and then compare those results to the one done in November (when we got home). Also, this procedure is inpatient and the doctor mentioned concern over placing her in the hospital during flu season.....so we are thankful and counting our blessings that, for now, we can continue to bond and let her thrive as she is now.
We had a 12 month well check up yesterday and Naomi, despite not liking any part of it, endured....she is in the 50% across the board in height, weight and head size. Her physical stamina and abilites are delayed but we are opting to give her another month or so before we seek any intervention (physical and speech therapy). She is thriving everyday right now. It is amazing to see the difference a month can make in the life of a little girl. Her ears still have fluid in them but she has another 4 days of antibiotic so we are hopeful they are clearing up and on their way to healing!! She seems to be feeling better. She also got 4 shots!!! Bless her heart.....she was a trooper. Glad that visit is over, for her and me.
Nate is doing great!! He is settling into the big brother roll very well. He has another week and a half of school, then a Christmas break! We register him for kindergarten in January!!! Where has the time gone?? We think we have decided on public school. There is a wonderful school only 2 blocks from our house and we feel very comfortable sending him there. So, unless the Lord intervenes by closing that door, we plan to register him there.
Christmas is only 15 days away!!!! WOW....and boy do I (santa) have a lot to do!!! So looking forward to watching our kids enjoy the celebration of the birth of Jesus!
