Stardust Diner...day after surgery...

Sorry this post is a little late, we realized we had forgotten to put this one on! Sarah did very well this morning getting her stitches switched, talked to Dr. Waner, and he doesn't know what the next step is until we send him some pictures in a month to see how well she is healing, so we will find out later.
But she did well, a little grumpy girl, but shes doing much better!
But we did take Sarah to the Stardust Diner the day after her surgery...and of course she enjoyed it! While the wait staff was getting the music ready to play for the next song, Sarah took that opportunity to sing herself! One of the waiters started to joke that he was going to take a microphone to Sarah! She was singing so loud and having a ball! She did it in between all of the breaks! Her songs were "ABC's" and "Old McDonald!" Here's a picture or two while we were there!

Out and About...

When we come up, we always try and do things for Sarah, at least something everyday, when the weather is warmer, we go to the park, and the Zoo, etc. But when its cold we have to find different things to go and do inside...so today we decided to take our candy loving little girl, to the very popular and famous "Dylan's Candy Bar" it's not much different from other big candy stores, but its neat and has some really cool things, and its been around for a VERY long time! Sarah was in love! She started to walk around just touching the bins full of candy and looking at everything, and then when she figured out we were letting her pick some candy to go into her bag...well that was all she wrote! She really enjoyed it, and it was a cute place to go and do something for the day! On the way back, we stopped to meet a few of the horses that line up with their buggies waiting to take people on a carriage rides...Sarah and Fredia Joe (the horse) really took a liking to each other! On the way back, right as we were walking up to the apartment building, i looked up and saw Sarah fast asleep on top of Chuck's shoulders! It was a nice day to get out and walk around!
Sarah goes back in to get her stitches switched out in the morning at 8 a.m. Please pray that all goes well, and the pain afterwards isn't too much!
God is Good!

Snow day Continued...

Well we took off with the girls in their "bubble cart"! They were so snug and warm all bundled up and protected from the wind...it was so nice knowing they were comfy enough to both take a nice nap before the museum. It was very interesting to go, we got to see the Titanic exhibit and the Leonardo DaVinci exhibit. I mostly wanted to do this little blog entry just to show you some neat pictures...i took some really neat ones so its going to be hard for me to pick just a few! Thank you so much for praying for Sarah! Enjoy the pictures! Chuck pushing the girls...and a little lady feeding "her" birds! It was so cute! And a picture of the stroller, with the girls asleep inside once we got to the museum...the cover was covered in snow!!
God is Good!

Wednesday is Snow Day

We woke up this morning and already had 3 inches of snow on the ground. We are supposed to get up to 18 inches total which is fine, as long as we can leave Saturday. Friday, Sarah is going back into the hospital to get her stitches replaced with dissoluble stitches for the trip home. Today we are going to try and go to the Discovery Time Square Expo and see the Titanic and DaVinci exhibits. The Expo is only 15 blocks from where we are staying so we think we can make it. This is a picture of Sarah at Magnolia Bakery Yesterday. Her chin looks so much better.

Surgery Day...

Today was a little different than the other surgeries that Sarah has had...instead of going early in the morning, we went later in the afternoon at 12 to be there for her surgery at 1. It was different because Sarah had to go most of the day hungry, instead of sleeping through most of the hungry part! She did good though...
They called us back to pre-op a little after 1:00 to get Sarah ready, and Sarah, Riley and Daddy sat down to watch some Veggie Tales on the DVD player we brought with us! So cute!
When getting dressed in her gown to go back the the operating room, she wanted to keep wearing her tutu! She was so cute...and I'm sure the most fashionable little 2 year old back there in a hospital gown!! (Chuck takes her back, so he took it off for the surgery once she was asleep)
Surgery lasted a little over an hour and Dr. Waner came out to tell us how it went, at first Sarah was supposed to get dissoluble stitches that we could go home with, but when Waner started working he realized that the plan of what he was going to do and how he was going to do it needed to be changed, so she got regular stitches, and on Friday we are going to go back, and they will do more laser (they did some today) and take out the regular stitches and replace them with the dissoluble ones; for us to go home with.
Sarah bounced right back, and was drinking her juice out of a cup and eating goldfish in no time!
Thank you all for your prayers, and love!
God is Good!
