Not much time to write as Brayden is waking from his nap. But wanted to update on Kaylin's CT angiogram results we just received.

Just to refresh your memory – this test was done to see what exactly, if anything, had happened to the aortic tissue as a result of fracturing open the metal stent in Kaylin’s aorta. It also gives a good look at exactly how narrow or wide the aorta is in the area of the stent, as well as above and below that so that the doctors can make the determination when or if something needs to happen.

After talking with Dr. Lawrence (our doc in Austin), everything looks good for now! We praise the Lord for that! There are no aneurysms which have formed, and it even appears her aorta has grown some because the area where the stent is measures 6.5mm and on the last scan (before the fracturing of the stent) it measured 5mm.

There is, of course, still some narrowing there compared to the rest of the aorta (we expected this) and she will at some point in the future need another stent placed to balloon the narrowing open further. The question now is WHEN to do that??!! Dr. Lawrence is sending the images to Dr. Justino at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston and the two of them will consult on what to do next. This is always the question with Kaylin – do we wait for her to show clinical signs that she needs something done? OR do we operate more proactively and intervene long before she shows real clinical need to do so. We do not have these answers and won’t until we hear Dr. J weigh in. He is typically the one who is the more “far-thinking” decision maker when it comes to Kaylin.

It does look like we can at least wait several months before having to place another stent! The rest of her heart looks really, really good and she is just an amazing little girl and I think about the best 3 year old patient the hospital here had ever seen. All the doctors and nurses commented over and over how calm and well behaved she was for everything they had to do. She didn’t fuss, whine, cry, or put up a fight over anything. I think they just don’t realize to her, this is just a part of life – she doesn’t know any different. But that is NOT to take anything away from what an amazing little girl she truly is. We are blessed and are all in all happy with this latest report!

Love to all,

Nancy and Chris

October is already over??!!!

Yep - here I am again, late as ever getting back to the ole' blog! Thank you for those of you who so patiently still pay attention to it:) Over the last few weeks, we have suffered through H1N1 - though without much fanfare thank the good Lord - continuous sniffles/runny noses/coughs (welcome to the first year of school), an ear infection with Brayden, and Kaylin's cardiology appointment! Life has been busy, but we can't complain.

Fortunately, Kaylin's cardiology appointment went very well, but it was only the first step in a two step process. The first step was an echo which revealed no change in either the gradient in her valve or the gradient in her aorta where her stent is! This is GREAT news and her doctor says she looks really, really good and can still never believe this is the same heart that was so sick when Kaylin was so little.

Step two will take place on Monday, November 2 and it is a CT angiogram at Dell Children's. She will be sedated for this as they will shoot dye into her veins and take pictures of her heart to get a good idea of what is happening to the tissue surrounding the stent in her aorta. If you remember, they fractured the stent open with a balloon back in March of this year and this is our first check up to make sure that fracturing it open didn't cause any damage to the tissue or cause any aneurysms to form. We don't expect this to be the case, but you never know since this was such an innovative procedure. We are optimistic, but of course a little anxious as well. We also do not like having to put Kaylin under anesthesia given the complications she has experienced in her past, but our understanding is that once they shoot the dye in her if she moves AT ALL they lose the image and she would have to come back on another day to repeat it. Exposure to the dye and to the radiation are both things we all want to minimize as much as possible as the dye can lead to kidney problems and radiation isn't good for anyone, so we totally understand having to use anesthesia here. I will be sure to update again once we have the answers to the CT angiogram. I don't expect we will know that day, but hopefully by mid week next week we will know more.

Aside from that, we are looking forward to Halloween with both our kiddos this year. Last year Brayden was still hanging on in my belly and I was pretty much restricted to bed rest, so it will be fun chasing our little Ariel (Kaylin) around and her best pal Sebastian the lobster (Brayden). Brayden is not walking quite yet so he will probably be pushed behind in a stroller, but he is definitely a boy that is on the move and as determined as Kaylin. He is doing a pretty good "scoot" as we like to call it b/c it certainly isn't a prime example of a crawl - but it gets him where he's going! And he is cruising everywhere, pulling up onto everything so we expect the walking to come in the not too distant future. It's hard to believe he is almost 11 months old! Ahhhh! And right around 20 pounds too:) That took Kaylin til 18 months to reach that milestone. A little over a week ago, he was 19 lbs 12 ozs but unfortunately still has his mama's short little legs. Oh, I certainly hope he gets Daddy's long legs sprouting soon! It's impossible to find pants to fit this boy! He is also starting to wave when someone says "hi" so that's pretty cute too.

I guess that's about it for now. Business with Thirty-One Gifts is going well, too and we have some adorable purses, totes, note cards, etc. for the upcoming holiday season so be sure to check out www.mythirtyone.com/nancyb for our latest catalogs, gift guide, and customer specials! If you'd like to host a party, email me and I'll be happy to donate 10% of my earnings to the charity of your choice during this holiday season! This way you get to celebrate your friends with a party and celebrate a meaningful cause as well. Love and blessings to all!

5 Teeth now and so many Milestones!

OK - tardy as always getting the blog updated considering Brayden's 9 month checkup was about 20 days ago:) It is so exciting to report that he is actually on the normal growth chart for his actual age! He doesn't have to be adjusted anymore. He is (or was at the time of the appt.) 17.2 lbs which is 5th %ile and 27" which is 10th %ile! He now numbers 5 teeth and I can't believe those all sprouted up so fast since my last post. He cut his first top tooth on 9/5, got his 3rd bottom tooth somewhere in there, and started cutting his 2nd top tooth about a week ago. Getting those top teeth has been pretty hard on him and it has already changed his adorable smile so much! I just can't believe he is only 9-1/2 months and already has so many teeth! So opposite of Kaylin who got hers very slowly and much later. So, needless to say, I stopped the nursing because all these teeth were not agreeing with either of us very well anymore. It was sad and hard on me to stop, but I'm so thankful for the 9 months I got to do it this time and I hardly had to use the pump at all (unlike with Kaylin when I could only exclusively use the pump for 8 months!)

Brayden is a big, big eater and will pretty much eat anything but he sure lets you know he doesn't like it. He loves fruit and now yogurt - which we just started after his 9 month appt. - and anything else he will tolerate and eat but will fuss through the whole thing just to let you know he doesn't like it. Yesterday I finally came up with the bright idea to mix his veggies with his fruit and he lapped it right up. Duh! Why didn't I think of this sooner?! I also have mixed some into his yogurt and he likes that too. He is obviously going to be my kid that I have to sneak healthy things into. Kaylin, on the other hand, always ate - and still does eat - pretty much anything you put in front of her. While she doesn't eat very large quantities of food, she pretty much likes everything - including vegetables. But with Brayden, I'm definitely going to have to do the whole "Deceptively Delicious" approach to meal-making!

Brayden has had some huge milestones this month - on 9/12 I walked in to find him sitting up in his crib for the first time! Up to this point, I had to put him in sitting position and then he would stay seated forever chewing and playing with toys. But on this day, he got himself to a sitting position and then later did it on my bedroom floor as well. He is doing it more and more these days and in fact does it almost every time I try placing him on his belly to practice crawling. He has completely "poo-poo'd" crawling and is totally going for cruising - just like his big sister did! If I am completely out of the room, where he thinks I can't see him, and there is a toy he wants to get to.....he will get himself just about to all 4's to attempt to reach it, but then sits himself back down. If I am in the room, however, he wants to hold onto my hands, stand himself up and walk (or really hobble) himself over to get the toy. If I try to get him to crawl over there, he will fuss and roll over on his back or bend his legs under and sit up. He is downright determined as seems to run in this family!

I know this is a lot about Brayden so far, but I have finally started doing a better job and recording his milestones (poor 2nd baby!) and I want to get it down somewhere more official so I can remember to record it in his baby book (if I EVER get him one!). He has also started babbling quite a bit and is pretty good at saying "dadadadada" - of course! On 9/13 he pulled himself to stand on his block table and started the babbling so it was quite an exciting day! Then this week he pulled himself up to standing in his crib for the first time. That was quite a surprise to go in and see him standing up. Good thing Daddy had already put the crib all the way down to its low setting because we just figured this was coming soon. And finally, our intelligent, talented son has also started crudely waving whenever you tell him "hi". At first it seemed on accident, but this week he does it when prompted and waved to and it's just so adorable. He is definitely loved and adored, especially by big sister.

Now, speaking of big sister (and I apologize for this getting to long) but she is doing fantastic at school and loves it very much. She has had several milestones this month as well and is just growing up so fast! First - she got to go dove hunting with Daddy this month for the first time and completely astounded us all with how much she loved it! We went to the deer lease in Brady with Gram, Papa, Uncle Brett and our whole family. On our first day there, Kaylin went with Daddy and Shiner while Brayden and I sat in our camo in the bed of the truck watching. Kaylin wore her earplugs and watched her Daddy and Shiner as they shot and retrieved birds. I think she even took one from Shiner's mouth and gave it to Daddy. Then to my astonishment, as the guys went back to clean the birds and prep them for freezing, Kaylin watched them very intently and asked if she could help. Without hesitation, of course, Daddy put some rubber gloves on her and handed her a bird. She completely imitated what she saw them doing and tried pulling the bird's head off (stop reading here if you are a bird lover and easily grossed out!). She pulled and pulled but couldn't get it so she had to ask Daddy for help. Well gladly, of course, he helped her and then told her to clean all the feathers off the bird. Within a few minutes, she handed that bird back to Daddy and he said he had never seen a bird picked so clean!!:) She enjoyed it so much and wanted to do it again and again. And for those of you wondering, NO, I didn't know what was going on outside. I was busy inside with Brayden and it wasn't until I saw Kaylin with blood all over her shirt that I heard the tale. I guess I am not surprised, though. She definitely has it in her blood as both her grandmothers are no strangers to bird hunting and cleaning birds themselves! And she is named after each of them if you recall. So I will definitely be a hunting widow when the kids get older. NO hope that even my little girl will be staying back with Mommy. Guess I better get myself a little more geared up for some hunting if I want to see my family!:)

This month Kaylin also had her first Sing Song at her school and her Nana and B-pa came to witness it. She was so excited to have us all there that she just could not sit still and was practically doing handstands and cartwheels on the gym floor. But she did very well and sang all the songs for us later at home. She LOVES to sing! She is definitely one of those that if you want for her to do something, put it to a song and she'll be all over it and singing that song for years to come! She is also learning Spanish and Sportball at school and her friends she talks most about are Wyatt, Caroline and Owen! She still loves all of her NICU friends as well and asks to see them quite often so we certainly miss Mason, DD (Daylan), Rainey, Caitlyn, Kayden, and Dakota. Hopefully we'll see them soon!

OK - this is long enough now! I just checked my calendar and Kaylin goes for her cardiology appt on 10/15 so we are anxious for that! Please pray for continued health in our family. I'm a little afraid that she has not been given the flu shot yet, but we go on 10/6 for that. I need to go get it myself. Ugh - I hate shots! Blessings to all!

Kaylin's Gone to Preschool!

It is so hard to believe, but my dear, sweet, baby-girl Kaylin is getting all grown up and is already off to preschool! It was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do when we dropped her off at school. I cried all day while she was gone. I cried before we dropped her off, then after we dropped her off. Then I cried when I got home and sat in her empty room while Brayden slept. That was normally "our" time together - to go ride her bike or play Candy Land or have a tea party. Then I cried as Brayden and I sat and had lunch together for the first time without Kaylin. It was such a quiet lunch! (As those of you who know Kaylin well know that when she is around, it ain't quiet!) Then it was finally time to go and pick her up from school - hallelujah! This was last Wednesday, 8/26. It got a little better on Thursday and then a little better on Friday, and now this week I think I have begun to accept that she is not a baby anymore and that she is where she needs to be - because she LOVES it! For those who don't know, she attends Casner Christian Academy in Austin and is known school-wide because her Gram teaches the 4 year olds there! It's a wonderful place for her to be.

Brayden is doing awesome, and thank goodness I still have him home with me or I don't know what I would do with myself! He reminds me so much of Kaylin when she was a baby. He is just so determined and active, and all he wants to do is hold my fingers to stand up....ALL THE TIME!! Kaylin did the exact same thing. He seems to be a more jovial baby, though. He giggles so much and is the most ticklish little baby I have seen. Just tickling his back gets him into a giggling fit! It's so much fun and just brings a huge smile to my face no matter what is going on. He is still a poop-machine, as he has been since his NICU days. He literally poops 5 or more times a day! That's kind of wearing me out, but it sure is better than living constipated like his sister all the live long day! He eats 3 huge meals a day and still nurses once in the a.m. But considering he turns 9 months old tomorrow (!) and has 2 teeth now, I am pretty much winding that down b/c I have to be honest, he uses those teeth now and it HURTS! I have just been so blessed to be able to nurse him since I didn't get to with Kaylin. Thank you, Lord, for that!

So, all in all things are going pretty well for our family. Brayden has his 9 month checkup tomorrow so I will update again after that with his weight, height, etc. He has come such a long way, it's just so hard to believe he is already 9 months old! Kaylin doesn't go back to the cardiologist until next month (I am anxious about that as always) and has become such a big girl that we can now give her her heart med as a pill to swallow instead of paying out the wazoo for the compounded liquid! Way to go Kaylin! At the suggestion of another CHD parent, we practiced with mini-M&Ms and it worked. Now we can buy the $4/month Rx instead of the $65/month one - every little bit of savings helps these days!

That's it for now. I need to go get Brayden who is up from his nap. By the way, I am still a consultant for Thirty-One gifts and we just came out with a new catalog in August so check it out at www.mythirtyone.com/nancyb - there are some really adorable new purses, totes and bags! Hope everyone had a great summer!

Bad Mommy!

OK - I know I am horrible at getting this blog updated. I just do not seem to have the time like I did when it was just Kaylin.

Kaylin is now 3 years old, as of June 21, and is just an awesome little girl! Despite the fact that she is growing up way too fast for me, everything is going great. We celebrated her birthday at a local sprinkler park and she was so thrilled to have so many of her friends join us. She is really into her friends these days and definitely knows who they all are, and who their mommies and daddies are. She prays for them each night and is starting to think they are actually part of her family! She is just too cute.

This summer, we have done a lot of swimming and a LOT of games of Candy Land!! It's just been too darn hot to do anything else. When it's 105 degrees outside, you just really don't want to leave the house - even to swim. She also likes to play Memory card games and loves Diego and reading books. Yes - we finally got her off Barney! Now we're on to the next obsession - Diego. But I will be FOREVER greatful to Diego b/c it has encouraged her to go pee-pee in the potty!!! Yes - I almost hate to even write it here for it is sure to jinx me - but Kaylin is pretty much without fail going pee-pee in the potty now! When she goes, she gets to watch a Diego. Otherwise, no t.v. and it has been just what she needed to get motivated. We are nowhere near poo-poo in the potty yet (she still does that by asking for a pull-up) but we are working on it.

It's hard to believe but Kaylin starts 3 day preschool on August 26! I will be so sad to send her off to school, but am looking forward to some alone time with

Brayden and I also know that Kaylin is just so ready sociall and mentally and will absolutely LOVE it! She will attend Casner Christian Academy and will be close to her Gram who teaches the 4 year olds there. It's going to be a great thing for her. I don't know if Kaylin will be fully potty trained by that beginning school date, but we are sure trying and I'm very proud of her!

Brayden is also doing great and has hit several milestones himself. For one thing - he already at 7-1/2 months outweighs what Kaylin did at 1 year old! He is 15-1/2 pounds!! He is a huge baby to us, but those in public who guess his age still guess him as 2 months younger than he is. That's OK - technically, he is 2 months younger since he was born 2 months premature. But he sure seems to be doing things physically that are on track with his actual age. On July 21, he started sitting up and can sit on his own now for quite a long time! He also cut his first tooth on July 18th! Quite early compared with Kaylin and as much as he likes to chew things and chew on my fingers it sure does hurt!

At this point he is also taking 2 solid food meals a day and LOVES it! He pretty much has liked everything I've given him - oatmeal cereal, sweet potato, carrots, squash, peas, green beans, applesauce, bananas, and avocado - but definitely did not like the egg yolk I tried to give him today! My book said not to try egg white yet - because it is an allergenic food - but that trying egg yolk is fine but I think we'll put that one off again for a little while. He seems more than ready to do 3 meals a day, I just have to find the time to squeeze it in! His 8 month birthday (August 3rd) will be my goal.

It's so hard to believe he is already going to be 8 months old. Seems time for him to sleep a good 12 hours through the night, right?! He currently goes to bed between 7:15 and 8p and without fail wakes at 5:15a!! Then he is not a great napper (though no surprise since Kaylin wasn't/isn't either) and maybe gets 3 hours worth of nap a day. Just doesn't seem like enough sleep for a baby but seems to suit him, unfortunately! Don't get me wrong - I am ecstatic that he goes at least a 9 hour stretch as I know many mommies out there don't get that for quite a while. But of course everyone I know seem to have babies who sleep 10-12 hour stretches so I'm just wishing for a little taste of that!:)

All in all, we could not be more blessed! We have found a great church that we love - Austin Christian Fellowship - and have gone religiously this summer. It has been such a nice feeling to function as a normal family and actually take our babies to public places! For so long we were so sheltered with Kaylin (and I wouldn't change that for the world) and even though Brayden was born prematurely, he has been so much better off that we can pretty much raise him as a normal full-term kid. It's just a weird, wonderful feeling! Kaylin loves going to church and Brayden does excellent in the nursery. Certainly one silver lining of having to go through a stressful NICU stint is that our NICU kids pretty easily go to other adults b/c it's all they knew from birth.

OK - I think that's about it for now. I promise I will get better at posting once Kaylin gets into school and I have a little more time. I am also working a second job (though only a few hours a month) selling products for a company called Thirty One Gifts (www.mythirtyone.com/nancyb) to make some extra money and that has taken quite a bit of my free time as well.

One last thing - we don't expect to have to take Kaylin back to the cardiologist until early October when they will do the routine echo and EKG. They will also, however, have us go to the hospital here in Austin for another CT scan to make sure the fractured stent in her aorta is still looking OK and not causing any more issues. In the meantime, if anything comes up I'll be sure to post. Thanks for your continued prayers for our family!

Everything looks good!

Happy, happy, happy to report that everything looks good with Kaylin! WHEW! After doing the normal workup - echo, blood pressures, and EKG - she looks good and her doctor thinks she has vessel motor control issues which are controlled by the central nervous system, not the cardiovascular system. It's nothing serious at all - just that she has a much higher sensitivity to cold than others. When she was younger, her hands would turn purple if she was out in the cold and her skin would get very mottled and that is just further evidence of this vessel motor control.

So, we cannot wait to resume water activities for the summer! Good thing because her upcoming birthday party is at a water sprinkler park and that was going to put a real damper on that if the birthday girl couldn't participate!!:)

We did learn that the gradient in her arch has gone up from a 2.7 to a 3.5 which you don't want to see. But because everything else looks good, nothing needs to be done at this point. We will return to the cardiologist in 3 months and then do a CT angiogram right after that to take a look at the stent which was fractured open and make sure everything still looks OK. Thanks for all your prayers! Now, if you could just pray that we get this girl potty trained ALL will be good in our world (hee hee)!

Brayden 6 months/Kaylin 3 years!!

On June 3rd, we celebrated Brayden's 1/2 birthday as he turned 6 months old! It's so hard to believe he is already 6 months!! He is doing awesome and weighed in at a whopping 13 lbs 4 ozs (at least whopping for our family!)! He is 24-1/2 inches and in both cases is just below 3rd percentile on his "actual" growth chart, not adjusted. In other words, at 6 months of age he is almost on his regular growth chart which took Kaylin 2 YEARS to get on her "actual" growth chart for her age! We were thrilled to get the "go ahead" from our doc that Brayden could start on solid foods. Again, Kaylin was not able to start them until about 1 year of age because she had so much catching up to do. So this week Brayden had his first taste of cereal and he LOVED IT! He literally lapped it up like a dog would water out of his bowl. It was so funny to watch. It was almost like he was saying - "what took you so long to give me some REAL food"! The next day I gave him 2 bowls of cereal and he lapped it all up and seemed to want more. Each day I add more cereal and he eats every bit of it. If I'm not quick enough with the spoon he starts to eat his bib and then his hand until I get more cereal in there! He also had carrots yesterday and loved those as well. It is just so amazing to experience what a difference this is than what we went through with Kaylin. As I said to Chris, a small jar of baby food would feed Kaylin 3 different times. At this rate with Brayden, it won't be near enough for 1 meal!

Brayden is also rolling over - front to back, back to front, rolling and rolling and rolling! He LOVES to watch his big sister and laughs hysterically if she hides and then plays "peek-a-boo" with him. He also giggles quite a bit when mommy changes his diaper or takes off his clothes and is quite ticklish on his belly. It is so great to hear his belly laughs and giggles! Nothing better than that! He loves to chill in his bath at night and watch big sister splash around like a fish out of water and he enjoys spending time in his exersaucer. He is just so cute and so much fun - oh, and he's already grabbing his toes. I know this may not seem like a big deal to some, but I just remember fretting over Kaylin not grabbing for her toes until she was over 9 months old and I worried about it forever. He's already doing it now and I'm just so happy that it doesn't seem like we will need any ECI therapy for him even though he was 2 months early!

And speaking of big sister - she turns 3 YEARS OLD this coming Sunday, June 21st!! She is such an amazing little girl and I just want to freeze time with her right now. Many of her tantrums have stopped and her behavior has been really good these last few weeks. She is very excited about turning 3 and going to "Gram's school" next year. She will attend Casner Christian Academy in the fall where her Gram teaches 4 year olds and she just can't wait. Before then, however, we must get her potty trained! You probably remember well the potty training sagas I was writing about here. Well.....she completely ceased going potty anymore and I just let it go. But now that we are approaching 3 years of age and have the beginning of school looming over us in August it's time to get back to work. Two days ago we started it up again and I would say it's going "average". She likes wearing panties but it doesn't hinder her at all to go pee pee in her panties so we've had several accidents on the floor so far. Poop is a whole other issue and I don't know how we'll EVER get her potty trained for that. At this point her doc has said to cut a slit in a pull up and let her wear a pull up when she has to poop. At this point, I can't get her to tell me she needs a pull up and he is so attached to her "poop corner" that it's impossible to get her near the toilet like the doc also suggested. If you pick her up and carry her in there, she screams and cries and then won't poop. She has enough constipation issues as it is - the last thing we need is for her to start holding it in now. So we'll have to see how that continues to go. I just never knew potty training could be so hard!!

Now for some health concerns with Kaylin that we would love you to pray about. For the last year Kaylin has taken swim lessons at an indoor pool - one that is heated to 90 degrees and they also keep the building temp at 90 degrees by the pool as well. Well, as Kaylin would wait for her turn in the pool she would just sit on the side and shiver and tremble because she was so cold. Some days were worse than others, and sometimes the instructor would put a wet suit on her because she seemed so cold. It didn't inhibit Kaylin from getting in the water, but she was shivering so much that she just couldn't control her movements as well. Neither of the other 2 kids in her class were shivering like this, but I shrugged it off to her being so skinny and slight for her age. Then came Memorial weekend when we blew up her inflatable pool and filled it with water and let her play around in it in the 90+ degree heat outside in the sun. After only a couple of minutes in the pool she again started shaking and trembling, her teeth chattering (mind you it was 90+ degrees out in the Texas heat) and her lips turned blue. She also couldn't catch her breath and actually wheezed a few times trying to get her breath. We forced her to stay out of the pool, which she didn't take well at all, and she shivered until we could get her dry. Seemed quite odd to me, but we thought the water must just be too cold for her. Then last week we went to swim at her Gram's house (can you see the common theme here - this girl LOVES water!) at 5p in the afternoon when, once again, it was about 97 degrees again. And again she started shivering, trembling and her lips turned blue. Again she also didn't want to get out of the pool but I was getting quite concerned at this point so we made her get out and play in the hot tub which was warmer. At this same time, her 20 pound niece and little Brayden were both in the pool and neither of them were shivering or trembling due to the cold.

The next day I called her cardiologist just to be sure. That's the thing with Kaylin, you just can't shrug things off with her - I feel like we always need to make sure something is not wrong with her heart. In this case, I worry that her blood is not profusing to her extremities correctly which would be due to her heart. I also worry that her getting so cold and shivering so uncontrollably is taxing on her heart. As I guessed, her cardiologist was concerned and determined to see Kaylin before she leaves town this Thursday. She is completely booked before her vacation, but double-booked us so that she can evaluate Kaylin. Needless to say, I am quite nervous and concerned and just hope that everything is going OK with her. We go see the doc tomorrow at 2p - but like i said, we are double booked so it may take several hours to get an echo and get evaluated so it may be a while before I can update. Please pray that everything is OK with Kaylin's heart and that she is just too darn skinny to handle cool water. I can't imagine a Texas summer with no pool time, but even worse I can't imagine something already being wrong with Kaylin's heart after the success we had in March. However, because what we did was experimental Chris and I are pretty nervous to see if some problem has arisen.

I will update tomorrow once we are home from her appointment. Thank you for your prayers! Gotta run as Kaylin is tugging at me now to go play!:)
