Prayers again please

Well it is the 29th of September and my niece Abigail will be going in for another surgery. This time they will be operating to fix the reflux problem that she has developed. She has had an infection in her lungs since the last operation and has been feeding intravenously.

I know that my brother, sister-in-law, and nephew are very anxious for her to come home. We are hoping that she comes home very soon.

Thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers!!!

Update on my niece Abigail

Well, your prayers have worked. Abigail had her surgery this past week and so far everything has been going well. They were able to completely connect her stomach and esophagus!! She is still in the NICU and will remain there to make sure there are no leaks, but the doctors are optimistic that Abigail will be able to go home and feed by mouth very soon! I couldn't be more excited for my sister in law and brother to be able to bring their daughter home!

Things around here are great!! Just gearing up for Reese's 4th birthday....wow 4!!! She wants a Tiana birthday this year and so I have thought up a Mardi Gras theme party since Tiana is the princess from the movie "The Princess and the Frog" which is set in New Orleans during Mardi Gras! It is going to be a lot of fun.....she can't wait for her birthday this year.

I hope that this fall goes by at a slower pace then I remember last fall. I am sure it is because we were closing on the house, gearing up to move, and of course moving in right before having her party here!! I just love fall and there are lots of things that I would love to be able to do with Reese and Rob this season!

I can't believe that we have been in our house almost a year!! We still really love it (guess that is great that there is no buyers remorse!!haha).

Thanks again for all the well wishes and prayers for my niece....just keep praying for a speedy recovery from surgery and pray she will go home soon!!
