I even caught one of her laughing...



Sleeping (Again)...



Addison with her buddy, Mark...



Mommy holding Addie...

What a day....

Here's daddy holding Addison for the first time since surgery...



Addie getting suctioned. She grabbed the suction and held it in her mouth and sucked on it! Maybe she's starting to get some teeth?!?!



Sleeping the day away...

Finally Sleeping

Just like her brother, she has some goofy ways of sleeping in her bed!



Looking comfy after a long day...

An Outing with Drew

Eating at Lonestar....



Here I told Drew he could choose ONE toy! As you can see, he had a hard time deciding which to choose....




....He did end up with two of the 6 he once had in his hand! I know, I'm a pushover but look at that face....

Another Day....

Addison using her entire "big girl" bed. This little move is what got her put into a crib!!!




Addison coming off drugs (dialated pupils and all).....




Drew "Chillin" at the condo...

A Day in the Life of Addison

I think I'm getting hungry.....



No,really, do you have any food for me?????



Nevermind....I'm going to sleep!!!!

Playing Hide and Seek

Our "Vacation" Home

A little more progress...

Getting a little hungry?!?!



Time to relax, I've had a long, hard day....

Another Great Day

When Addison finally woke up, she was wide-eyed and even smiling a bit! She looks SOOO good today! After the tubes came out, we got to put some clothes on her.... she was still a little drugged and then woke up just fine...

Sleeping Beauty

Here is Addison with her Daddy...




and this is how she looked when I got here this morning. She looks like a little angel...

Getting Stronger Everyday

Here are a few pictures of Addie that I took today. She was awake a lot more today and it was so nice to see her bright and shining eyes! I can't get over how much better her color is. She actually looks rosy.






She did finally fall asleep. Looks like she's having some trouble finding her thumb!

Extubation: Day 3.... Getting Rid of Some Lines

Addie LOVES her mobile! Here is a picture of her reaching for the buttons in her sleep, maybe trying to turn it on???



Addie gazing into the rainforest. It is SO nice to see those big eyes again!



She's been fighting sleep for quite awhile now. She falls asleep, but then wakes right up again. This morning she has finally gotten some good rest!

Day 2: Off the Vent Again

After fighting the tube for two days, Addie was finally extubated. She was SO happy to have that out and finally got to take a rest.



Here is Addie after throwing a bit of a fit for one of the nurses. After she flipped out a bit, she put her hand over her head as if she was a little embarrassed!



Here is Addie showing a bit of irritation and attitude! I wonder where she gets that from???

EEG

With our little neuro scare, Addie had an EEG. These probes took a good hour to place and she LOVED them....Just Kidding! We had to take a picture of our little Alien child.

The Adventures of Drew

While this is FAR from a vacation, we have tried to do what we can to keep Drew entertained. Most of the time, if he just get some attention he does alright.

Last night we took him to the Diamondbacks game. The receptionist here gave us some tickets and wanted us to get out of here for awhile. We all had a great time! We'd watch for a few innings and then walk. Here is a picture of Drew playing in the St. Joe's Sandlot! There's just no escaping this place!!!!!



Drew managed to find a pair of glasses and try to play some baseball. The plaid shirt adds SO much!!



One afternoon we had a visit from Mickey Mouse and Goofy here at the hospital. Drew was in heaven! Here is a picture of Drew meeting Mickey...



When all else fails, Drew loves to just sit and watch his movies. He loves Mickey Mouse, Tigger and Pooh, Little Einsteins and Cars the best!
