Surgery

It looks like Gabe is going to have surgery very soon. It is possible he will have back surgery as soon as Thursday. We are meeting with the surgeon tomorrow and will know for sure. Gabe has two herniated disks as well as a 13mm piece of bone touching his spinal cord.


In April when we took Gabriel to the hospital I knew he was very thin. They admitted him to Devos on April 20th and kept him for a week. April 19th I took Gabriel to the hospital near where we live and they treated me like a crazy mother. I was looking back at pictures I took with my cell phone on the 19th while at the hospital near our home. I can not believe how awful my little man looked. I am so happy he is so healthy right now! Here are a few pictures from the 19th of April.




Now look at my healthy baby:)

beautiful day

It was such a beautiful day today! Gabriel and I went downtown to the art festival. You would think I brought the most interesting art with me. My little man was completely showboating. He was laughing and talking up a storm. So many people stopped what they were doing to look at him and comment on how amazing his eyes are.

A guy came up and told me that he had a 9 month old boy at home and how fast babies grow. Then he asked how old Gabriel is. I told him that Gabriel is almost 10 months old. The man's response was "no". I had to laugh. BoogaBoo is still pretty skinny but he is long. Of course he was scrunched up in his front carrier.

I hope everyone else was able to enjoy the weather!

goodness

I hoped I would be better about posting more often once I was at home for the summer. That doesn't seem to be the case.

Gabe hurt his back Wednesday last week. We have been to doctor appointment after doctor appointment. He had a MRI on Tuesday. We just go the results back. Herniated disk... SURGERY.

Gabriel is amazing and is getting stronger each day! It has been a crazy hectic week! That is all I have time to say. Gabriel is trying to help me type:)
