Fun-Filled Week

This week has been jam-packed and has flown by! On Monday, we took Maggie to Chuck E. Cheese for the first time. She loved it! She really seemed to go back to the same 3 or 4 games the whole time!

Showing off her dance moves!

She said this was just like a roller coaster!
This is one of the games she played multiple times!


This week we also met up with Papa Bob and Nana Karen for lunch one day since they were in town, played at the park (you've got to love this wonderful weather!), got Maggie's hair cut for school, and she even "helped" me work in my classroom!

Maggie's Cardiologist Appt.

I was wrong a few months ago when I said Maggie was finished with all her specialists. Right after I posted that, we got a notice to schedule her 2 year follow-up with her cardiologist (2 years is a long time to remember that!). Well, yesterday was her appt. They did an EKG and an echocardiogram and we got some mixed results. The muscle tissue that was so thick from working overtime is now normal. She still has a small hole in one part of her heart that her doctor is not concerned about because 20% of the population has it. The doctor found a leak in one of her ventricles. The doctor said she isn't too worried about it because she said it could fix itself, but she wants to follow-up again with Maggie in 2 years to check it. It was hard news to hear, but we know our faith will see us through once more.

Maggie and Ben

We had a great visit with our friends this past week and Maggie absolutely loved playing with their baby, Ben!


Buddies
Open wide!!

Maggie thought she needed to be a baby, too, so she tried out the Johnny Jump-Up!

A little morning conversation between friends!
