Drew's appointment today

She is still not gaining weight, she only gained 3 ounces in 6 weeks. :(
Drew now weighs 14 pounds 11 ounces. Any ideas on how to fatten her up in the next 2 weeks would be appreciated.
Her surgery is scheduled forJuly 13th.
The cardiologist said she looked great but the not gaining weight thing is scareing her. She really does eat alot so I don't know what else to do. She gets 24 ounces of formula which is more concentrated to give her more calories. She eats at least a half of an avocado a day along with cheese and plain potatoes and lots more.
I mean maybe if the girl would stay still for 1/2 a second she might save some calories. I spend ALL day following her around, I wish I could lose the weight instead. LOL
Just please keep our little munchkin in your prayers.

Pictures!

Surgery time



We had a message on the answering machine while we were on vacation. Drew's heart cath is scheduled for July 11th and her surgery is at 7:15 am on July 13th. While we are no where near ready to hand Drew over to the surgeons again we have no choice. :( God will protect our sweet little girl and she will be in good hands. They say the surgery will last about 6 hours. Please start praying for a great surgery and fast recovery.

On a happier note we had a blast on vacation. We ended up going to Disney World. Drew had the best time. She cut a tooth and learned to point. The entire trip she was pointing at something, mainly balloons. :) She was so entertained with all the new sites that she never wanted to nap. Rylie loved the whole trip too. She kept telling Steve "Daddy this is the best ducation eber" . LOL We ended the trip by going to Destin for one day. All Drew wanted to do was eat the sand, Rylie was not a huge fan of the sand and ocean either but still had fun! Now just 2 weeks till her next surgery. :(

HI

We will be on vacation so i will probably not post much. We will be out of town so Drew's cardiologist appointment has been moved to July 28 instead of the 21st.

We did get a call from the surgeons nurse Deb in New Orleans. Drew will be having surgery in July between the 11th and the 20th. They could not give a definate date as they were still working on getting all the teams to coordinate a certain date.
Please keep Drew in your prayers. At least it is early in the season for hurricanes. :)

Update

Drew is doing good.
The girl is full of life and energy, she never stops moving. Since she has started crawling she thinks she can go anywhere including climbing on top of the treadmill and pulling up and anything and everything. She throughly enjoys playing in the pool which is a great way to cool her down since it is soooo hot outside.

Her next cardiologist appointment is June 21. I also have a call out to the surgeons to see if they reviewed her echo yet. Just waiting for the call back.

I will get some more pictures up soon.
