STILL RECOVERING...NEXT VISIT TO SURGEON IS OCT 13







All is well with the Carr family (just on the go as usual)! We go back to Dr. Sargent in a few days to determine whether Anna will have her palate surgery on December 3 as scheduled or whether we will have to reschedule it for January 2009. She is loving life without the "No-No" arm restraints and playing excitedly with all her toys. Her lip is healing fairly well, but still has a small hairline opening that runs horizontally across the top of her lip. She is eating baby food, well at times and not caring for it at all at other times. She is using a spoon like a pro, but we just have not got her eating schedule figured out yet. If we wait too long to offer her the baby food, she just wants her bottle of milk and lets us know clearly that the baby food is not going to make it into her mouth. :) Hopefully you can see the progress she has made in the last month from the photos I am including.






Samuel is growing more and more, talking more and more, and on the go more than ever. He is a good helper, though, and loves Anna. He is currently teaching her to say bye-bye and loves to go with her to her many appointments. We are still learning to share our toys (a lifelong task we will face, I presume). We will let you know how her visit with the surgeon goes next week. Thanks for your continued prayers.
