Pot Roast, Potatoes & Carrots
So we had to update my website/blog last night, and it took forever, and required additional maintenance from my personal IT professional, Jeff. So I took the night off, and planned to just write two posts today. So this first one is Thursday’s update…Emmie and Nana went on another morning nature walk, and collected all sorts of good things to bring back and show me.

Nature Walk, Sloth Socks & Igloos
Emerson loves helping with chores, and feeding Pretzel is one of the things she can actually do on her own, even with all of her post-op “sternum precautions!” She loves doing it, and I love watching her do it.

Tongue Tattoo
I was off work again today, for one last full day, because we were supposed to go to the cardiologist’s office here in town. But there were a few miscommunications, and long story short – the appointment isn’t until Friday afternoon. So that just meant I got to spend one more day at home, doing nothing but being with my girl! We started off the morning with some “cunch cunch.”

Letters & Flashcards
This morning, Emerson woke up asking to do the letter book. At first, I didn’t even know what she meant, but then she said the letter book from Ms. Q, and I remembered this letter tracing book Ms. Q got her. She has such a great memory! Also, she was surprisingly good at this, for never trying to write letters like this before! I was super impressed!

Tallahassee
We had one last meal at the little “picnic table” in the common hallway this morning, and then spent time cleaning and packing and getting the room spic & span again.

Jax Skyline River Walk
We had an extremely slow, lazy day, and barring a few traumatic experiences with bandages and medicines, it was pretty nice not to have to do anything or go anywhere. Emmie slept until around 7:45am, and then she got to open up a few more presents from some more of her favorite teachers from school. These were from Ms. Bridgett and Ms. Julia!

Miracle Recovery! (Post-Op Day 2)
Jeff stayed in the hospital last night for the overnight shift, and he said both of he and Emerson were up pretty much all night. Emmie slept for about an hour at 10pm, and for about two hours at 5am. So both of them were obviously exhausted.

Orange Popsicle (Post-Op Day 1)
Last night, in my “bed” from across the room, I could NOT make myself close my eyes, even though I was super tired, because I just didn’t want to take my eyes off my baby girl.

Successful Open-Heart Surgery
Since we’ve posted a couple of times on Facebook throughout the day, most of you know the details by now. I’m of course still going to write today’s blog post though, although it’s certainly going to be difficult…
Perfect little angel baby, sleeping before we woke her up super early this morning. She had to have a bath in special anti antibacterial soap first thing this morning, and we had to be at the hospital at 6:30, so we had a very early wake-up call.
