D.C.

We spent a few days in the D.C. area. There was a Chiari conference that Mom and I attended and we then spent some time being tourists. It was Scott and the kids' first time. We didn't get to do as much as we would have liked so Scott is already planning our next trip down there, when we'll have time I'm not sure but...

Anyway, I wanted to share some pictures with you.

Let's try to stuff as much as we can into the end of June

Well Marra and Kieran had their tonsils out on Thursday June 26th. Things went well. Marra also had a scope done of her esophagus, intestines, and stomach. She has inflammation of her esophagus and stomach. They are not sure what is causing the inflammation, they did biopsies while they were in there and we will have the results in two to three weeks. The ENT told me that Marra had the largest tonsils of the day and Kieran had the second largest of the day. Marra's adenoids were also so large they were blocking her nasal passage.
Both kids spent the night in the hospital and came home Friday. Marra did amazing with drinking and pain management, Kieran was having a bit of a problem with all of that until just last night, Monday, when he started to really start to drink and be himself again.

Both kids have 3 weeks of rest and soft foods before they can get back to normal.


On Friday night June 27h, my water broke. We went to the hospital and they wanted to try to wait until the morning when there was a full staff on to deliver the baby. I was scheduled to have a c-section on July 3rd but the baby had other ideas. So at 7:15am on Saturday June 28th I went in for a c-section. At 7:43am Aislin Kaiti Mizikar entered the world weighing in at 8lb 11oz and 19 inches long.

She is healthy and happy with a full head of dark hair, yes I said dark hair, but other than the dark hair she looks just like Marra and Kieran did as babies.

The pediatrician told me that if she had been born term she would have weighed in around 10 lbs.

We just got home this morning and we are resting.



Here are some pictures!
