I am bummed that Geoffrey can't join us and be with us, but it's hard with both of us taking time off work and of course, the additional plane ticket we would have had to buy. Geoffrey will be going for his 2nd surgery on October 10th and I will stay behind.
On Monday we have a pre-op apt. with the dr and nurse to go over everything that will be happening on Tuesday. They will tell us on Monday what time surgery will be on Tuesday morning. Hopefully Brayden is the youngest one, that way he can go first. Especially since he won't be able to eat after a certain time Monday night, he won't be a happy camper if he has to wait too long for food again.
Tuesday is surgery day and Brayden will be staying the night in the hospital, that way the staff can make sure he is doing ok. Then the next morning, we should be able to go back to the hotel room. If everything is looking good, on Thursday we will drive back to Iowa until July 31st. Then on the 31st we have to drive back to Chicago because on August 1st, we go to the doctor at 9:30 am for them to show me how to do his 1st fill.
We fly back to Phoenix on August 1st at 5:30 p.m. Every week after that, Geoffrey & I will be doing Brayden's fills on his expanders, over the 12 weeks, each week they will slowly get larger.
Brayden is growing so fast! He is already 20 pounds 3 ounces and 29 inches long! He is 60% for his weight and 90% for his height. Guess he might be a tall boy someday :) He started "scooting" a few weeks ago and each day he is getting faster and faster!
8 months old already!
And he's off!
All ready for Iowa ;) Thanks Great Grandma Vauble for the overalls!
Please keep Brayden in your prayers next week on Tuesday when he has his surgery. Thank you everyone for the support and if you still want to order a cook book, we still have plenty left. Just let me know :)
