A scare with our baby girl

poor navy just got her blood drawn at our following appt for her ear infections which ended up sending us to the hospital for a CT scan...

just a little versed to calm her from our neighbor who happens to be the chief Anesthesiologist at Kaiser Sunset

a little loopy before her CT

 After her CT scan we were transferred into the ER where the Ear, Nose and Throat surgeon would come and explain what exactly was going on and what needed to happen next....once he came he informed us that Navy had two abscesses. One just below her left ear and one in her throat partially blocking her airway. When I heard this I was scared to death! What if we never found this out? What could have happened to my baby? We quickly decided that surgery was our best option so not too long after the surgeon left they were wheeling Navy and I down to the OR. Everything was happening so fast to my little girl.

On our way to the OR

one last goodbye before my babies surgery

 After Surgery:

About an hour and a half after I told Navy bye, they called me back into the recovery room and this is how i saw my little angel. I was so thankful everything went well. Once she heard my voice, she popped right up and wanted to be held by her mama.

so sad for navy

we had to stay the night in the hospital and the morning when Navy woke up she was so swollen from all the anesthesia

my swollen little girl

Daddy & Hudson came to visit us that next morning. Navy was so happy to see her dadda.

I asked the nurses if Navy could get unhooked from all the cords for a little bit so she could walk around. She was in heaven!

Poor girl hadn't eaten for 24 hours. So this was heaven to her!!

loves from her brother

Navy is doing really well now but her abscess on her neck I continue to worry about. The last few days its looking more swollen and red. We have a follow up appointment with the ENT on Tuesday so I should have more answers then. Thank you everyone for your kind words, meals and being so willing to help our little family out. All of my family and friends amaze me more and more each day.

Easter 2013

We love playing at the park with our cousins

Aunt Diane and Aunt Sheri came up from Tucson to see the kids and we ended up eating lunch at Tia Rosa's

We finally got to meet cute little Vera. Josh and Brooke's new addition!

We even got some pool time in!

Nana helped the boys dye Easter eggs

Our Easter best

Wyatt had a job interview on Monday April 1, so we decided to leave the Thursday before to spend Easter in Arizona with his family. We got to catch up with friends and family, and of course eat at our favorite places in AZ.

Spring Break Part 1

 
Started our Spring Break at Alex's 2nd Mickey Mouse Birthday. Whitney did such an adorable job with everything. It was perfect...even her nails were painted red and yellow.

Hud & Alex

Peter. Charlie. Crew

Navy is at a phase where she has to eat everything all by herself. She went to town on this cupcake!

Pinata time! Check out Charlie's arms around Crew and Peter. This picture melts me.

 After the party we hurried home, packed up some clothes for the next few days and headed toward the beach house. Our first stop was Big Air to meet up with our cousins...

 Sachia and the girls met me down at the Beach House for some extra added fun!

we stayed up until 3am talking...

Dinner at Los Golandrina's...do you think Navy likes guac?

 Tuesday=LEGOLAND!

the best part of Legoland is that every ride has a little gated section where the kids can play with legos while you wait in line. Genius!

They all passed their drivers tests!

We were busy trying to get out of the house and totally spaced putting Sachia's stroller in my car...so we got this beauty for the day!

We ran into Crew's school friend Allison while we were there

Sachia was such a trooper to go on this ride twice and get soaked with all the kids

Hero Factory!

My favorite part of Legoland was the miniland. It was adorable and spot on!

love bugs.

Lisa met us by Legoland and took Navy all day for me so we could enjoy our day and move a little faster. I'm so thankful to have such willing to help sisters!
