Monday, November 15, 2010. Help For A Friend. Remember that friend from grade school who always made you laugh.laugh to the point where milk was coming out of your nose? Well, that was my friend Courtney. Courtney was everything you could want in an elementary school friend.she was kind, she was intelligent, she wore cool clothes and had a pool in her backyard! Of course, what was important then isn't quite as important now! I can't remember the last time I laughed as much as I did that year! Courtney an...

Thursday, February 10, 2011. Has it REALLY been 3 months since I last posted? Where has the time gone? Since my last post we have celebrated Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years.and here we are, just about ready to celebrate Valentine's Day. What does Valentine's Day mean to you? For most of us it means celebrating with a romantic dinner, the giving of cards and presents and spending time with the one we love! Congenital Heart Disease is considered to be the most common birth defect, and is a leading.

Monday, May 17, 2010. One year ago yesterda Lily was released from the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics following her birth and two open heart surgeries. Getting ready to go home! And here I am today! She would get up on her feet, take a step and fall and get right back up, take a few steps, fall and repeat this over and over until she had made her way over to me! All of this I got on video. It is just amazing to see how far she has come in one short year! Saturday, May 1, 2010. We are so thankfu...

Wednesday, March 31, 2010. Appointment at U of I. Today was Lily's sedated echo and EKG down at the University of Iowa. This is the first time we have had an appointment down there since November.4 months, can you believe it? Her heart function is great! Although she is considered a single ventricle, Dr. Reinking states that she actually has two very strong ventricles that do all the work for her heart and her heart should last a long time! Monday, March 29, 2010. Busy, Busy, Busy. Seems like forever sin...

Wednesday, September 22, 2010. A Horsey-Riding, Tap-Dancing Kind of Girl. Recently, Ellie started a tap dancing class. She is so excited each Monday to get her tutu on, and her tights and of course, her "tap tap" shoes! Turns out Ellie decided she was just going to be a spectator. Her instructor said she was sprawled out on the floor enjoying watching the other girls! So we've decided at this point to give it a couple more weeks. Hopefully she will get over her shyness and start to participate. Olivia Ka...

However, this past Friday night Russ came home from work and asked if we wanted to take Ellie to Wisconsin Dells for a night.that meant we had daddy to ourselves the whole weekend! And what a great weekend it was! We final...

Wednesday, August 25, 2010. Every Heart Has a Story. A fellow heart mom, Stefanie, has put together a great blog event to help families connect with other families going through similar situations. I have decided to join the event and tell "Lily's Story.". Our heart journey began on December 4, 2008 when we found out that our unborn daughter most likely had a complex congenital heart defect. We were absolutely devastated. The months leading up to Lily’s birth were an emotional roller coaster. I finally g...
