Picture Monday

Mom, this book is an easy read!  Can I borrow your Twilight book? Maddison wore this outfit for her 6 month pics.  America is wearing it at 4 months! I love this outfit!  I was able to put it on her on one of those rare warm days in November here in Ohio.  She’ll probably [...]

More On The Surgery

When we were moving to Cincinnati from South Carolina, my children’s pediatrician told me that Cincinnati had one of the top children’s hospitals in the U.S.  Of course, I’m a pessimist, so naturally I think, “Greeeeaaat…God’s probably sending us there because our kids are going to need a good hospital in the near future!”  Well, [...]

Surgery

The surgery went well.  Thank you all for your prayers.  As mentioned before, the doctor performed a frenulectomy (clipping her upper frenulum up to the base) and laser surgery on Madison’s birthmark.  I’ll blog more about our experience later, but I did want to post some pics for now and let everyone know it all [...]

Madison’s Lip

I took Madison to the doctor today.  I was thankful they were able to fit her in and surprised to hear that this lip thing Madison is suffering from was probably always there.  The doctor looked closely and she couldn’t find anything behind the teeth, and she said the area between and above the inside [...]

The last couple of weeks with pics

So much has been going on in our little world and I haven’t had a chance to post half of it! Sooooooo, I have some pictures to remind me of a few things!  First, Joshua had a concert a couple weeks ago where his class sang the song that they wrote with an awesome Children’s [...]

There’s no time for too tired!

Just when I thought I couldn’t go anymore, I was told I had to.  I called the doctor’s office to let them know that Madison is not responding to her inhaler very well.  She freaks out every time it’s time for her treatment.  I asked them if we could switch to a nebulizer because she didn’t [...]

Too tired

to blog.  Madison is sick (again).  The doctor prescribed her an inhaler (which freaks her out) and antibiotics.  The nights have been full of interrupted sleep.  I have so much I need to get done, but I just can’t seem to move my body right now.  I’m looking forward to Joshua getting out of school so [...]
