Sorry for the delay in posts, things have been a little hectic around here since Avery's surgery... Tuesday was very hard at home, Avery was very upset and who can blame here who would want to have the inside of their mouth stitched up. When she got home she was very excited to see her comfort zone, she started to kick her legs and give us a smile. The nights are not so good, she is sleeping about 1-2 hours at a time and we think it has to do with breathing... this is so new to her now that her palate is closed and I think she wakes up very scared. Just keep praying for her to get rest and be peaceful. The doctor was very pleased with the results, the first thing he told me was that the hole was very large... but he said he was able to fix most of it. Praise God for that!!!! When the nurse in recovery called me this is what she said..."I am rocking your beautiful baby girl and have her calm, but let me tell you one thing she is feisty". That made us laugh because we know how feisty and determined she is... gotta love that baby girl. They finally brought Avery to us after surgery and the same nurse told us this "you can tell this baby is very loved" that touched my heart and made me so proud. Thank you all for your prayers and emails. I am so happy that God has allowed us to share this journey with you all. We love you!!!!!!
