Recovery and random stuff...

Here are a couple of pictures from our trip to Salt Lake last week. Drake loved playing with his cousins. This is blurry, but I still thought this was cute of Drake and Ivy. They are only 9 days a part in age.
Drake and his cousin Jaxon who he absolutely adores:)


Grandma Debbie put Laynie in the sink and curled her hair. Laynie felt so proud up there!!!
Laynie and Aunt Afton

Laynie is doing really well. Today is the first day completely off of her pain medicine. Well she has gotten it once because she pointed to her head and signed hurt, but I don't think she was in serious pain. I gave it to her anyways though!!! On Sunday night she was in serious pain and vomiting everything. She couldn't keep her pain medicine down and she was super miserable. By monday afternoon she was feeling so much better. I feel like she had a migraine or something. It was really weird. We were also a little concerned about her bleeding, but it finally stopped on Monday also.
She is finally back to her happy self and is doing great. We are still trying to keep her healthy so she can heal well and not be prone to any infections.
We have to wait 2 weeks for her incision to heal and then we go down for a post-op appointment with the surgeon. If it is healed properly then she will get it activated the same day by the audiologist. That will be so exciting!!!


Back to her happy self:)

What her head looks like today. She can finally have her bandage off since she isn't bleeding anymore. It is pretty yellow and starting to bruise. The steri-strips can come off on Saturday.
Mom and Drake went on a special date to Walmart and to ice cream!!! He is such a good boy and puts up with getting way less attention than his sister sometimes. It is so hard to balance motherhood when one child requires so much more than the other. Thank you for being so sweet and patient Drake. I love you to pieces:)
