Happy Guy

Eli had a very successful second surgery to repair his palate.  He only had to stay the night and recovered quickly.  

From a princess to a hoe down!!

Surgery a success!!

Surgery is postponed

We have had to postpone Eli's surgery because of his respiratory problems.  He is using a nebulizer every four hours along with a steroid twice a day for his wheezing.  Hopefully we can reschedule in a few more weeks.  Otherwise things are going very well.  Eli can now get to a sitting, almost standing position from his back and tummy.  He is walking pretty well while holding one hand and has learned quite a few signs to let us know what he wants.  He also loves his babysitter Susanne who he gets to see two and a half days a week.  I was kind of disappointed with how easy the transition was for him once I went back to work!  We'll post the new surgery date as soon as we hear anything.
