We have a Surgery Date!!!

Dr Dable's nurse called today to schedule my heart surgery. We set the date for Monday, June 22. We will have more updates soon. Please, continue to pray for us!

Recent Dr Visit

Today, I went to see my cardiologist at UAB. I had a very good report. The Dr said that the pulses in my feet were very good which means that the balloon procedure they did about a month ago during the heart cath was very successful, yea!!! My weight was up to 11lbs and 7oz. The hole in my heart has actually gotten a little smaller however, Dr Colvin still feels that open heart surgery is necessary. My parents and I are not too sure about that. We still believe that God could continue to close the hole so that is what we are praying for. If it doesn't close on it's own then we are praying that the surgery will go as smooth as possible with no complications and that I will be on my way to a full recovery as soon as possible.
Dr Colvin did not schedule me another appointment with him. He said he would notify the surgeon and when we hear back from the surgeon then we will schedule the surgery. I am assuming that means I will have the surgery sometime next month or the following month. I will try to keep everyone updated and please, please, please continue to pray for me and my family as we go through this bump in life.
Love In Christ,
Harper

4 MTHS!!! WOOHOO

I am now 4mths old, man how time flys! Yesterday, I went for my 4mth checkup with Dr Massingill. I now weigh 11lbs 4oz, yay!!!! My mom says I am growing like a weed. I was able to start eating baby food yesterday. I have been eating ole bland cereal for about 2 weeks. I get to actually eat foods that taste now. We started with carrots last night for dinner. I wasn't really sure about them at first but, by the end of dinner I absolutely loved them!!! My mom says they will give me a gorgeous orange glow and that they are really good for my eyesight. My mom is always worried about my eyesight, my hearing, my skin, my everything! My teenage years are going to be CRAZY!!!!!!

Mother's Day

As you all know about a week ago we celebrated some very special people in our lives... our mothers! Besides having the most wonderful mother in the world (remember folks these are Harper's words not mine. I'm just writing this for her because she can't type yet), I have the most incredible grandparents and great-grandparents!!! I enjoyed being able to see them on this very special day and celebrating their lives. I love all of you! (My MiMi was sick so I couldn't get a picture with her but, she is great too!)

Couldn't resist posting these!!!
