Brayden's Journey

Tuesday, September 27, 2011

Stitches are out!

Today was finally the day, to get Brayden's stitches out.....he hated wearing that ace wrap for the past 2 1/2 weeks.  Poor little guy would get so hot with the ace wrap.  Dr. Price ( who is Brayden's dermatologist) and Kellie, kindly offered to remove Brayden's stitches for us.  I was happy knowing Brayden would be in good hands. 

Geoffrey had to work today, so that left me taking him alone.  I packed his diaper bag with plenty of treats and his DVD player.  To remove the stitches took an hour, since he had over a hundred of them.  Brayden was such a GOOD boy and he just leaned forward and ate his gold fish snacks and watch Mickey Mouse on his dvd player.  He didn't even cry, just at the end he wanted me to pick up him, but other then that he was PERFECT!

Brayden has been through so much and everything that he goes through, just amazes me how strong he is.  I am super happy that things went good today and his stitches look great and I think it helped that he was in good hands with Dr. Price and Kellie, they are both great!

Now Brayden has a break, well until next Wednesday, Oct. 5th. He will go to Phoenix Children's Hospital for his 2nd round of laser treatments.  He will be put under and surgery last around a hour.  They will be zapping all his satellite spots.  Please keep him in your prayers, since he will be going under for this surgery.

Brayden is growing up to fast, can't believe he will be 11 months on Saturday.  He has been "army crawling" for the past few months and Sunday he crawled for the 1st time.  I was so excited I was clapping my hands and he sits up and claps his hands as well.  It was so cute! He has also become a dancer, when he hears music playing or a song come on, he will wave his hands in the air and if he's standing up, he will bounce up and down. So fun to see him grow and learn new things.

For those of you that don't know, October is cookbook month, if you haven't bought your cookbook yet, we still have plenty left and thank you for all the support to everyone who has already bought one.
