I am a mom of a cutie pie (very biased). And I wanted to share my experiences with others (including my cuties grandparents, great-grandparents, numerous uncles and other relatives). I love being a mom and can't imagine doing anything else.Update
The Echo went well. they had a hard time getting the picture because of all the gauze from the operation but they got a good shot and said function is normal. Thank you GOD!!!
She has been on room air for about 2 hours and is sitting pretty at 97% (before all of this she was at 98-100 so thats almost normal.) That is well within the range that we could go home. just a few more docs talking to docs and residents checking this and that and we will be heading home. They will check pulse oxygen another time or two over the next hour or so and if it remains this good we are going to make like a tree and leave. I am cautiously optimistic.
currently my dad is pushing Livi in her stroller and every once in a while coming over and running into my chair...which is making her laugh out loud. So good to hear that sound! I will update later...hopefully from home...after a nap in MY OWN BED!!!
Thanks to everyone for praying. We could feel how the love and support of all of you and it helped so much over these last few rough days.
Thanks to Kirk, Holly and Ryan for the bag-o-fun. I swear one of these days we will actually have lunch outside of the hospital and it will be so nice...or better yet.. go to a park.

Emily,
Thanks for the report. Praise God the echo came back good and that Alivia is returning to air room! Praying that the afternoon checks go well and you all are able to return home safely. I haven't checked the weather lately but I hope and pray you're able to drive home safely. Maybe you'll get some sunshine to welcome you guys home!
Much love,
Yay!!! Aunt Cheryl

Thank you, God - Alivia is LAUGHING! This is the first time today I have been able to catch up on your blog. How wonderful that her breathing is returning to normal, that her heart is OK, that you will be able to go home, that you are going to get something that resembles rest. God bless you. We are all still just trying to send you all the love we can.

Thank you, Lord.

Thank you, Lord, for being gracious to our friends. Thank you for rising from your throne to show them compassion. You are so good to us!
Will be praying for the calm after the storm, that no anxieties will haunt you, but only sweet peace from Heaven above to guard your heart and your mind.
Love you much, friend.
Praise God for answered prayers!
We've been praying often today and it is so good to hear that things look good at this point. Yay!! - for her breathing and heart and most importantly - laughter! We'll continue to pray for rest for all of you. With love...
