Daddy's day....

 

The kids made several cards for Dad!  This is the back of the group card....it says "We love you from our fingerprints to Heaven".....and all the kids put their fingerprints on the card!

Keegan made Daddy his favorite breakfast:  pb & j.



We are very blessed with a great Daddy!  The kids certainly love their Daddy!!  We had a great day and tried to spoil Daddy all weekend!

 

Happy Father's Day to all the Daddy's out there!

water fun

The little lunch lady made an appearance at the house today!!!

Sorry...I realize after uploading the sprinkler pictures that there's not really any good ones.  Oops.

Well, try and enjoy what I have....I'll try and do better next time!

I will have some front of the house pictures coming soon!  We've got the front looking pretty good!  Weeded, trimmed and mulched!  Woo whoo!

3 week old ears

I realize I just posted ear pictures a few days ago...but I needed to send Dr. Reinisch pictures today so I thought I might as well share with you guys, too.

I think the right ear looks amazing!  The left ear is sort of sad looking...but I am hoping this will even out over time!  We are still claiming victory over these ears!  Please continue to pray for Lucy's new ears!  Thanks you all!!!

Here you go!

 

 

 

 

Over all, I think they look awesome!  So ready for them to be healed up!!! 

I have some cute pictures coming your way....stay tuned!

2 1/2 weeks post surgery

Love it!  This is Lucy's new right ear!  The swelling is already going down!!!  The coloring will continue to improve as well!! 

Back side of the new right side!

 



Lucy's left ear.  Bless this precious little ear!  This ear received the implant replacement....I think it's looking pretty good!  Again, just like Lucy's right ear....the swelling will continue to go down and the coloring will improve!  

Please continue to pray that Lucy's ears heal perfectly!  May God continue to bless our little girl!

tomorrow

Ear pictures coming tomorrow......stay tuned!

We are home!  Praise Jesus!  It feels SO good to be home! 

The girls are all playing together in the playroom....Asher is upstairs in his room playing...and Adam is getting caught up on some tv shows.....life is good.

Oh, and my cat, Donovan, won't leave my side!  Sigh.  Normalcy!

Thank you again for all the prayers!  I'll be posting some more ear pictures either today or tomorrow so stay tuned!  I'll be taking off the ear molds, washing the ears and taking pictures! 

two ears...

Waiting to see Dr. Reinisch! 

Two amazing women:  Francesca (front office) and Julie (the travel queen)!!!

Adam with Tracey....she wears many hats!

Lucy getting her stitches snipped!  Francesca was working her magic!

Dr. Reinisch giving the new right ear a once over!  He seemed very pleased!  Praise God!

Love that new right ear!  It looks a little rough but it's beautiful to me!  The swelling will go down over time and the color will even out.  The little sore spots around the ear is from where the stitches were.

Lucy was getting irritated right about now.  She was done with the stitch removal process.

You can tell by her face that she's about over it at this point!  Francesca was removing the stitches from the patch area from the back of her head.

Woo whoo!  Getting her hair washed after 2 weeks of no washing!  Shew!  Feels good!!

Dang it!  Look at that angel!  Praise God above from whom all blessings flow!!

Fingers in the mouth....going to her happy place!

Just look at the before and after photos!

Lucy loves Francesca and let me tell you....Francesca loves Lucy!  I mentioned to Francesca that I thought Lucy had her wrapped around her finger.....Francesca says "you bet she does"!!

Getting the blue molds on the ears!  These will protect the ears until we get home!  Once home, she will only wears these at night!




Dr. R making the left mold.....

Adorable.  Simply adorable.

The family with Dr. Reinisch and Francesca!

This is my sweet Nicole!  She is an amazing woman!  She loves my Lucy, too!

I can not thank you enough for all the prayers that have gotten us this far!  I ask you to continue to keep Lucy, those ears and our travels in your prayers!

I feel so blessed, so thankful, so humbled by this entire experience.  Lucy has touched so many lives and I pray that someone somewhere has seen the love of God through her.  I know I certainly have.

Thank you again for all the prayers!  Please keep them coming!  Love you all!

I'm gonna sleep good tonight!!!  Praise you Jesus!
