8 lbs. 13 oz is what you weighed yesterday although right before I went to pull you off the scale it had gone down even further to 8 lbs. 12.5 oz. Not exactly what we were hoping for. I have to admit, I was fighting tears the whole time inside the office. I truly know that you'll be ok but its just hard to watch you go through this process of struggle. You are now in the 3rd percentile for weight. The nurse said to not let this get us discouraged. This kind of weight issue is to be expected with your heart defect.
We had plans to go to the Rexburg Parade on Saturday morning, swimming in the afternoon, and then to the Idaho Falls Fireworks on Saturday night but while we were at the Dr's we were told that it wasn't such a good idea. If Syd gets sick at all, even with a minor cold, the surgery will be cancelled. Her body has to be 100% healthy to do the surgery because all her body should be focused on is recovering not recovering and fighting a cold. It's just not worth the risk. So, we aren't sure what we are going to do this weekend but whatever it is it's going to be fun!
We got our family pictures back yesterday. He did such a great job. I am putting a couple up but there are more that I love. We did more pictures where we are wearing white shirts with jeans but I am too lazy to get off the couch and grab the disk that has those pictures on them so for now...you just get to see 2 of the 100 that were taken while we were wearing brown.
I sure do love you. Your Dad loves you.
Love Forever, Mom

I hope you put more pictures up! They are GREAT! I sure hope Sydney gets a little more weight on her! Bless her heart! We are praying! :O)
I am slow. I have been assuming all this time that this blog was not replacing your old one and that it would just be a log of Syd's progress. I have missed out on so many things! I kept thinking you were such a slacker for not posting things on your blog and I only checked this one once in a while cause I don't have it on my blog roll yet. So- now I will stop being such a loser and keep checking this blog instead of the other one.
Those are such cute family pictures and you really shouldn't look that tiny. That is so depressing to me! I love you and, yes, I am still signed in as Mike. :)
