Colby has recently discovered that sucking on his hands is fun....which normally would be fine except for in his case it usually pulls the tape off his lip. So needless to say, we have been going through more tape lately. Which, I will not miss at all after next weeks surgery. We have been trying to imagine what his little face will look like with his lip repaired, but it is hard to picture. To us, he is perfect now and I really don't think about him looking different until I see one of my friends little ones that have a normal nose and lip. So yes, I am excited to quit taping, to be able to kiss his little nose and lips and for him to not take in so much air when he eats. But at the same time I am very scared and anxious about sending my 11 week baby into full surgery. But what does bring some comfort is that God is on our side and watching out for our little guy!
Not much else is happening here....Luke is staying fairly busy at the clinic and I, well I am in Colby land each day! The weather is finally looking like fall in CA and it is brisk in the mornings when we walk.
All Smiles....just "monkeying" around
Sporting the overalls and polo shirt! Very serious face....
Miley likes to lay on Dad too!
Luke and Lindsay,
ReplyDeleteWe will be thinking about Colby next week. I am sure he will sail through surgery and have a fast recovery! He is so precious, I love following your blog.
We miss you guys!
