no fluid, hearing aids?, lookin' good


We have finished our round of doctor appointments for the week. Yesterday we went to the ent. As we had thought from how Maddy was responding to noises while we were on vacation, her ears have drained. That means no surgery which we are very thankful for; however, they did a pass/fail hearing screen and she failed it again in both ears, which may indicate she has some type of inner ear hearing loss still. So, the docs office is setting up another ABR (audio brain response, I think), to try to deermine what is going on. The ABR tests her hearing at many frequencies so they will be able to determine the range of her hearing. If significant hearing loss is shown, we will have to get hearing aids for her. So still lots to keep in prayer about her hearing.
Today was her checkup with Dr. Herring at Scottish Rite. He was pleased with her progress, ao looks like we will jusy continue for now with what we've been doing. We'll see him again in 3-4 months. Her appointment was at 12:30 today and neither of us got to eat lunch before we went so we decided to eat in the hospital cafeteria. We weren't sure how it would be but I think we'd both agree that we got the best BBQ pork sandwich we've ever had in our lives.
In other news, we are getting a "new" car tomorrow. It is a 2001 Toyota Corolla, 4 door, silver. We are buying it from a lady who is going back to India. Tricia has graciously let us borrow her car all summer while she's been at camp. She will be back tomorrow! We really need two cars since we have all these dr.'s appointments. God blessed us so we were able to pay cash for this car. We were also blessed to pay off the Isuzu earlier this year so we have two cars and no car payments. We also now have liability only on both vehicles so that will save us some monet as well. I will post some pics of the car soon.

I am laughing at the thought of Maddy with hearing aids in her tiny ears, I will be praying that she doesn't need them, but if she does, then hopefully they make them in extra small, plus you guys need one more thing to keep up with anyway. I am just kidding, I pray for you 3 a lot, it was so great getting to spend time with your sweet baby. Anyway the car sounds cool, I love paying cash for a car, no car payment is so nice. Love you guys!

Good day, sun shines!
There have been times of troubles when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright stupid person.
I have never imagined that there weren't any need in big initial investment.
Nowadays, I feel good, I started to get real money.
It gets down to select a correct companion who uses your funds in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, parts and divides the income with me.

You may ask, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to tell the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:

Getaway to Ticks Bend....I Mean Beavers Bend State Park

 Back in April, we decided we needed to do a short family getaway after the semester was over. The last time we'd been on vacation just to vacation (not going to see family in CO) was when we went to San Antonio when Maddy was 3 months old. We found Beavers Bend State Park close to Broken Bow, OK and decided to go there. We booked a cabin in the state park and eagerly awaited the day we could take off for our getaway. We left on Sunday afternoon and stayed through Tuesday afternoon. It was short, but so fun and relaxing. We had no computer and no cell phones while we were up there. We just got to enjoy being around each other and the beautiful scenery.  We built a fire and roasted some marshmallows. Also popped some jiffy pop. Aaron had never done one of those before.  This is a 100 year old cabin they had at the visitor center. I like the mud chinking ( I think that's what it's called). A couple named Comma and Mabel lived in the cabin when the CCC was building t...

Another Sonogram

We went to the high risk pregnancy doc today for another sonogram. This time he could see all four chambers of the heart, the pulmonary valve, etc. In his words it looked "dramatically better". He feels there is still some slight compression on the heart and that we need to continue watching it. As of now he cannot see anything that is causing it and the MRI did not see anything either. He also felt that the hands were okay. They are not clenched fists at least as he first thought, meaning that the fingers aren't overlapping each other. Her hands are still in fists and she won't open them but he said he has had other babies that have not opened their fist in the sonogram but the hands have been normal at birth, so we still have a lot of hope for those little hands. He was able to get a better look at the face today, no cleft palate, so that is a huge blessing. The feet are still concerning. They are definitely clubbed but she is also not moving them. She is moving her...

More Miss Maddy pics

Here are some more pictures of Maddy. I know everyone is eager for pictures. We got to put her first little outfit on last night. She got out of the incubator bed and into a regular bassinet so she can now wear clothes and have her own blankies and stuff. It is great.
