She smiled

as the anesthesia began to wear off. I think that says it all. Her surgeon did a great job. Ivey is always in good hands with him. Ivey also had a MRI, but it will take some time before we know the results. She is home!!


Here she is before, after and today. Ivey looks great today and she is in a fantastic mood. All she needs now is Tylenol an antibiotic and don't forget the welcome sleeves. She will wear the sleeves for a week or two (probably two) to keep her hands from her eye. The lid and lashes are out.

Thank you everyone for all of the thoughts and prayers. We could not do this without them. They make her stronger. Oh, and a special thank you to G&G, dinner was delicious.

Yeah!!! So happy things went as planned! Ivey sure is a miracle baby:) I love the picture with her piggies:)

So glad she is home. Those piggie pictures are precious!

I love new pictures of that sweet girl! Are those sleeves going to drive her crazy? Addie sucks her fingers, and if she had to wear sleeves, she'd (and I'd) lose her mind!!

AMAZING!!!! So glad it went well!!!

The sleeves are pretty irritating to her. Ivey's favorite thing is to suck on her fingers. She did tolerate wearing them for two weeks after her palate surgery, hopefully this week will go by fast. They will be off just in time for a birthday!

Ivey looks amazing! I'm so glad you've allowed us to "meet" her and keep up with your story. You are right. We are blessed to get to be a part of that. And I thank you for it. :)

Praying for continued healing and for strength for you Momma :)
