We celebrated Sara's 6th Birthday!!! We sure Love the pieces out of that little Elsa!!!
Owen turned 7!!!!! What??!!!??!!! I just can't take it!!! I refuse to let my handsome boy get any older!!!!!
Lyla went back to Boston for a six month post op visit!!!! She rocked it as usual. They are all so impressed with how well her heart is doing!!!! Her lungs are another story but I'm convinced with her warrior attitude one day her lugs will heal!!! She will not accept anything else!!! She has lots of living life to the fullest kind of plans. We are so blessed to witness our crazy miracle girl!!! We were so lucky that Uncle Mike went to Boston with us. He makes everything a Great Time!!!!
So we pretty much did get a warning in Boston that her lungs are just not performing like they should. So I guess it shouldn't have been a big surprise that Poor sweet Lyla has been in the hospital twice in the last month. Ugh!!!! The doctors all say this is to be expected as her lungs are going to need lots of time to get use to her heart repair. Every sniffle seems to lead to pneumonia. She is such a trooper as always!!!!!
I'm not going to lie!!! I have a crush on her cardiologist in Buffalo. The man that did not take "no" for an answer and fought for her to be seen in Boston. The same man that when he came to see her in the hospital handed me his phone and asked if I would take a picture of him with Lyla!!!!! Oh yes, now that is the Doctor God sent for Bean!!! Wow!!!! Thank you Dr. Leonard!!!!!
The last visit to the hospital was so up and down. She would have a good day and the next would just be awful!!! The girl likes to keep everyone on their toes!!!!
Lyla was not full of energy after her last hospital discharge. So we had to find ways to keep her busy with out using too much steam. Painting with chocolate was a hit!!!!
Everyone else started school!!!
Conor went back to college!!!
Getting in some Conor Love before he left!!!
And He made the soccer team for Medaille College!!!!!! Yay!!! So proud of that guy!!!!
Tay has finished with all the paperwork for Kostya to come!!! We can not wait for that day!!!!!!! I am so proud of both beautiful girls!!!!!! They are so very strong!!!

And I started working at Walmart!! I'm working Sunday thru Thursday, 10 Pm to 7 am!!! I was so blessed to stay home as long as I did. Now it's time To work out of the home for some more income!!! The people I work with are great, the work is not hard but I am pretty tired. Lyla will be going to kindergarten soon (they are working out oxygen OSHA issues) and then the schedule will be perfect!!!
I really like using that thing!!! Ha ha!!! It's the simple pleasures!!!
