Thank you Tuesday for being better than Monday was to us....

Tuesday you are so sweet!!!
Great news.... Gracie no longer is in her cranial helmet!!! Because she is PERFECT! The company is emailing me the original scan and the one from Tuesday during her exit appointment. She went from over a 15mm to a 4mm. Usually they only hope for a half mm change, of course our little sweetie beat that and made an A+!  We are so happy for her because the thing is so hot and she is already very hot natured as is, and it stinks so bad even with us cleaning it daily.

they put this on while they are doing the head scans

Look at the sweaty head. She is so happy to have the hot stinky thing off!

We had her fitted for her new leg braces. She will be in the same shoes she was the first brace go round and we are hoping and praying that she won't get her heel infected this time. The new braces should be ready in a couple of weeks. In the mean time we are doing therapy weekly and will meet with PM&R (Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation) on Monday. I will update about that as soon as we find out. 

So Monday I was so bummed to find out the extreme cost of Mother's Day Out. Well, when given lemons one shall make lemonade! I've really wanted to volunteer at VBS (Vacation Bible School) this year but wasn't sure how I could do that with our appointments and needing a sitter, I was pleased to find out that I can help and they have the nursery open for my kiddos! Tonight I was on the church website and found what seems to be a wonderful parenting class during Sunday Bible study that starts at the end of the month as well as a women's Bible study starting in September on Tuesday mornings that offer childcare free of charge! I have my fingers and toes crossed that we can move our therapy for Tuesday to a later time so I can go. A little more digging around on the website I found that they have a huge gym that is free to members and they offer daily workout classes (for a very small monthly fee) and during those classes Monday- Friday they have child care! So 8:45-10:45 Monday- Friday the kiddos can go to the nursery and the cost is only $35 per month!! This is all I needed just a couple of hours and I can work out :) WHOO HOO! Bottom line is this, God will take care of you and when a door closes a window opens! 

Madi is feeling better and Brody and Gracie seem to be on the mend as well. Please keep all of us in your prayers. God is working on something big behind the scenes and I am very intrigued to see how it turns out.
