Good Late Night to everyone! Sorry I haven't updated in a few days but I wanted to turn our CaringBridge site into a book and I thought the last posting was a good cut-off point. Unfortunately, putting the book together took me a little longer than expected! But, it's finally done and we will see exactly how it turns out when it arrives in about a week! (And, yes, all of your sweet Guestbook postings are included so Ian and Bonner can read your kind words of love and support for years to come)!
We have enjoyed several days of snow -- the kids first snow! It was so hard to get them in everyday from playing out there -- they love making snow angels and the idea of a snowman really thrilled them :-)
We went and saw the pediatrician last Friday for Ian's RSV shot -- it ended up that both children were able to get a flu shot, too, so Bonner didn't escape quite unscathed! Ian weighed in at 17 lbs 1 oz and Bonner, 15 lbs 15 oz. So they are still a little over a pound different!
Ian continues to do so well! He's getting back to 100% and you can just tell that he has so much more energy these days! He started rolling over today which was good and his tooth is really shining through! Bonner is doing great; they are both just such happy babies and we are so blessed to have them in our lives!
Our cardiologist has invited our family to a luncheon with community leaders tomorrow (Wednesday) in hopes of spreading the word about the services offered for cardiology patients here in Upstate SC. Since we utilized all the services of the hospital throughout the past year, he thought we would be a great example and a good family "to put a face with the problem!" We are truly honored and look forward to helping spread the word.
Also, for those of you in Greenville that might be going to the BMW Golf Tournament in May, I would be honored if you would purchase your tickets through Palmetto Hearts, a non-profit in SC that supports families with congenital heart defects. You can read all about the organization and order BMW tickets through their website www.palmettohearts.org.
We do not go back to the cardiologist for 3 weeks so there's really not a lot of updating to do these days! In other words, no news is good news :-) However, for our friends and family so far away, I will set up another website so that you can stay in touch and see what all is going on in our lives! CaringBridge has been a great way to keep you informed so far and we are so blessed that you have stayed in touch and walked beside us through this process!
We love you all and will be in touch very soon!
Jennifer
