Busy Week!

This past week was very busy for little Caelyn!

On Monday, she had her 3 month check-up. She was 11 pounds 7 oz and 23 inches long. We had bloodwork done Tuesday and Wednesday to rule out Digeorge Syndrome, those test results came back normal!

Caelyn stayed Wednesday night with my friend Hannah (first night away from my baby girl! I was worried the entire night) so Darren and I could celebrate our 4 year anniversary. We stayed at Diamond Jacks casino, and ate at Wine Country. It was a great anniversary.


We drove to Dallas Friday for her cardiology appointment. We did an EKG, which looked good, and her O2 levels were at 94%!! Yayy!! We didnt do an echocardiogram this visit, but we will next visit (June 20) to look at her coronary arteries to see if she will need a catheter put in before her surgery. Her cardiologist, Dr. Kao, said the bloodwork that was done the previous days dont necissarily rule out Digeorge Syndrome, so we are going to do another blood panel called FISH. It's specifically for Digeorge Syndrome. We scheduled her open heart surgery for July 7, give or take a few days depending on Darren's work schedule.


Saturday morning was the blood drive I sponsored in Caelyn's honor! It was great. About 37 units of blood were donated, and a few people donated platelets/red blood cells. It was a chilly day (hard to imagine a chilly day in Louisiana!) and very windy, but around 2 it finally warmed up.

Hopefully this week is a little more quiet! I'm sure Caelyn is pooped from her busy week.

Caelyn was 13 weeks old on Friday. She is eating like a little piggie, about 5 oz every 3-4 hours. The last two nights, we fed her around 7 pm, put her to bed about 8:30, and she slept until 7 am Saturday night and 6:30 am last night!! She is such a great sleeper. She is smiling and giggling so much lately, but is pretty clingy. She doesnt like being laid in her swing or sitting in her Bumbo. She wants to be held all the time. So it's pretty hard to get anything done around the house! Oh well! ;)
I love my little princess so much!
