Ivey had a semi-restful night. We kept the pain medication pumping every two hours. Around 4 am the swelling started setting in - there will be alot of swelling for many days. We still have not seen her incision -
Last night she was a little upset and signed "Ivey" and I signed back "Momma's beautiful girl" and she settled. She settles to Matt's kisses. During the night she even instigated a game of 'patty-cake' and played with her music cube. Ivey's music cube is the equivalent to Walker's bear blankie - it's her snuggie.
She is resting now - I'll update everyone today as I find out more from the surgeons after their rounds.
The next several days are going to filled with pain and confusion for Ivey - so keep her in your prayers.
She is a trouper - we have seen that throughout her years; however, we have a new little tidbit of information about her ... the neurosurgeon said her skull was very thick, more like that of an adults. I've always thought she was hard headed - I guess now we know she really is -
