Kaitlyn's Blog: June 2009

We've had a LOT going on recently, so I'm sorry there have been no postings. I seem better about getting pictures up on Facebook, but all of the videos are here. I finally sat down and spent some time getting things loaded, so there are a bunch of things in this post.

Let's see... in the past month, we've learned that Kaitlyn has to have surgery again for her hernia (it came back) and we went to Mississippi for a wedding. The trip was good. Kaitlyn did pretty well flying. We were even told she was great on one flight. She was fine napping a bit on them, others I just worked to keep her entertained. She was a party girl at the wedding! I got a few video clips of her below dancing. She didn't want to stop and was having a blast.

She will be having repeat umbilical hernia repair surgery on the 28th of July. We took her up to Children's in Omaha for this consult. He is sure the first one didn't work because of a weak abdominal muscle which couldn't hold the original stitch. He will do this one horizontally instead of vertically. He said it will be harder on her this time around. Last time it took her 2 days to be back to normal, so we'll see what happens this time.

She has had her first encounter with her wading pool (and a few more since then) and she loves it! Splashes all over the place. Hopefully things will settle down a bit now so that we can take her out there more. She's also been to the Children's Zoo here in Lincoln and we hope to be there again soon, too. It's been a crazy summer so far.

Where are we going?
