#2 Lip Repair

Here are a few pictures from Gracie's last surgery. When we were at the hospital and I was taking pictures Gracie said,
"Mom are you going to put those on your blog"
I said, "do you want me too"
then she shook her head yes and got that embarrassed look she gets.

Gracie is so brave, whenever we get to the hospital for a surgery she is always so calm and we never hear a complaint or a cry from her. We are so happy that Grace is getting close to being done with all her surgery's.

The first 2 pictures are before surgery. Before surgery she always gets evaluated and they make sure she is healthy enough to get the surgery done. Then we go to the surgery waiting room. It has lots of things for the kids to do, color, play toys, read, watch TV, make a doll, pretty much anything you want to do you can do it.


The next two pictures are murals on the wall in the surgery waiting room.




When she gets to go home she always chooses a wagon to ride out in.

What a trooper, it is amazing how fast they bounce back from the surgeries. We are not looking forward to Kesten's next one. Looks like she did great.

YAY Gracie last one for a long while! You look so cute in these pictures and I would choose the wagon ride too.

Gracie's lip looks great! Glad she's done for a while, though, so she doesn't have to go through all that again and you won't have to drive over there so often.

Gracie, you are such a doll. You are my hero and I love you very much!! I like your hair by the way too!!

She does seem calm. Heavenly Father must have known she was a special girl and a fighter before she even was sent here. She was beautiful before but now her lips make her kissable beautiful.
