Sorry I havent updated in a while... It has been pretty hectic! We took Avery today to Crievewood for her first Easter egg hunt! Needless to say, it was more so grandma could show her off. There was no hunting eggs for Avery!!!! It was FREEZING outside too! She had a good time watching all the kids though and visiting with everyone. Yesterday was my brother Brandons 30th birthday!!!!! I cant believe he is 30, not that that is old AT ALL, but time just flies! We went and ate at my grandparents house last night with everyone. I love going over there. Avery had her 4 month birthday yesterday too, which she celebrated with 4 shots at the Dr office. It was pitiful. She screamed, and mommy almost cried with her. I swear, it is harder on me I think than it is on her... She weighs 14.9,a nd is 24 1/4 inches long. She is in the 75% for weight and 50% for height. We bought her a little jumperoo thing at Target to get her off the back of her head and to let her excercise her legs and she loves it. The Dr also said in a couple weeks we can start giving her veggies and more fruits. I cant wait. She is already taking fruit with her cereal. We have been putting bananas in it since it was such a struggle to get her to take any. She seems to really like it now. Last night she was opening her mouth for it. I also swapped to oatmeal cereal, which I think she likes better. She has been a little tired and fussy today though. I have been giving her Tylenol every 6 hours for the shots. Her little leg is bruised too. I think the Tylenol helps a lot. She just does not handle the shots well. She really hasnt been super hungry today either. Hopefully it will change tomorrow. She is getting Baptized tomorrow. I cant wait! Joshs and my family will all be at church together then were going to go eat at Denise and Jerrys. It should be a great time!
About Denise... we went to the Dr on Tuesday and the report was that they saw a spot on her lung. HOWEVER... She remembers having a CT done in 2002 cause the Dr saw a spot on her lungs when she had a CXR during a physical. That spot turned out to just be scar tissue from pleurisy when Josh was a baby. So, the surgeon felt really good knowing that, but got a repeat CT just in case. We still dont know the results of that. But, pur prayers were answered in that it has not spread to the other breast and he does not see any lymph node involvement!!!! PRAISE GOD, HE IS GOOD!!!!! So now we need prayers that the lung thing is not cancer!!!! She is having surgery on the 27 to remove the lump and have a node biopsy to be sure it isnt in the lymph nodes. She will be out for 2-4 weeks recovering from that, then assuming that it is not in the lungs or lymph nodes, she will have 6 weeks raditation and be done!!!! So that is what we are praying HARD for. Please pray for strength for her and the family too. I cant imagine just sitting and waiting. She seems to be doing great. Her spirits are up and she definitely isnt moping about it! She is a lot stronger that I would be. Avery wore her Save the Ta-Tas onsie for her today. It is so cute. Ill take pics of her in it, but she pooped on it so I have to wash it!!!! haha! Ill update more as I know. Thank you for prayers. OH!!!! And thank the Lord again because the tornados yesterday missed Jessica and Jeremys house by less than a mile. They are so fortunate. We drove around today to look at the damage and it is unbelieveable! I took picutres so hopefully I can get them up soon. Please pray for the victims. I mean some people lost EVERYTHING. These houses were just destroyed! It was about 5-6 miles from our house. It is so crazy! Thank goodness all of our loved ones are safe!
