It’s been such a busy week that I haven’t found (taken?) time to post an update on what happened earlier this week! (Thanks, Sher for the “friendly” reminder).
On Tuesday Jess was feeling well enough to be left home-alone while Ella and I ventured out for a quick-trip to Naperville where my folks from Pennsylvania were visiting my sister, Sherilyn for her birthday! Ella and I had a fantastic trip together and enjoyed visiting with my family very much. Ella loved being able to be surrounded by the young girls that Sherilyn is the Nanny of there in Naperville.
More pictures from the trip to Naperville are here.
On Wednesday, I was able to take Jess to get her CT Scan that revealed a for-sure kidney stone that is apparently still attached to her Kidney – NOT the source of her pain. Jess had an appointment with a Urologist in Waukesha yesterday and was told that he thinks she may have already passed a stone during her most-painful days and that they will be taking another CT Scan next week and a follow-up visit with the Urologist to see how things are going!
Jess is feeling much better these days, though she is very sore from the extreme pain that she did have in her side during those difficult days! Continue to pray for her as we sort through these days and weeks!
Those were great pictures! Happy Birthday Sher…..
OH how I wish we had captured Ella’s face when we opened the door to her in her daddy’s arms…she had the widest grin with her face in fullest radience of jubilation!! It was the BEST welcome we could have received at this point (she does not yet call us anything, so she can only grin at us with her limited knowing us that she has)!
Thank you Jessica for allowing your hubby and baby girl to come to visit us though you couldn’t be with them! Thank you Stevan for being willing to do the trip with Ella without the caretaking of your wife! And dear Ella, thank you for the many laughs we had from hearing your jibber-jabber, and the tenderness you offered from your generous kisses!!! We love you ALL!!!
