Happy Heart Day!

Today is Addie's heart day! I can't believe it has been three years. How far she has come! You can read all about the events of her surgery here.

I have been reading through all the comments made over those several days during surgery and the recovery process...makes me kinda emotional to see how God has used those same people to raise Addie to be the amazing little girl she is and also those people who have helped to bring sister home! Pretty amazing!

Here is a picture from when we first got to see her after surgery. =(



Amazing how far she has come...mainstream preschool and Sunday school, walking, talking in two and three word phrases, running, jumping, climbing, dancing, recognizes her upper and lower case alphabet, and numbers 1-10, counts to 10...working on counting to twenty..but that's hit or miss. =) If she asks you to sing a song, 9 times out of 10 she's going to ask you to sing E-I-E-I-O....and she continues to give the best hugs and kisses! Her favorite thing right now is to go into her playroom and turn on her CD player and turn it up as loud as it goes and start dancing....it's so hard to discipline her when I go in to turn it down and she puts her hand up and says STOP! I DANCIN! Love her!

Here she is on a recent trip to Chicago to see our good friend and amazing photographer Darcy Demmel

Happy Heart Day Baby Girl!!


Yes a year ago this is the sad sight we had to look....but Addie has continued to amaze us all over the last year....




She now has 7 signs and is working on walking with a walker! Who would have thought that a year ago this little girl had just been through major surgery! These pics are courtesy of Tiffanie Lloyd Photography. (Thanks Tiff!)




Addie has just blown us away since doctors repaired her tiny little heart....just amazing....




Yes, we have been busy, but I hope to get you all caught up on the last two months over the next couple of days....and A LOT has been happening!





Happy heart day baby girl! You are so very loved by your mommy and daddy! And lots of family and friends!
