Preparing babies for surgery
A little "sleepy air"
Administer IV meds
Hannah and Sarah-Job Well Done!Sarah is scheduled for her palate repair surgery on Friday. The child life department at Children's is wonderful. They gave us two pre-surgery medical kits to play with. So tonight the girls and I played dolls. We inserted IV's, put bandaids on, took blood pressure, listened to heartbeats with stethoscopes, and put our babies to sleep with "sleepy air". All this to help prepare our little Sarah for Fridays events. I will be glad when we are back home again, however we are all excited to hear Sarah start talking. Currently, she can make vowel sounds but the only consonants we consistently hear are "M" and "H". She has been very patient as we try to figure out what she is saying.

I am praying for a smooth recovery for Sarah! I love these pictures of the girls playing doctor...how nice of the hospital to give you the surgery kits!
Everything will go fine and it will all soon be a memory just like Hannah's is now! Our experience with Quan's surgery already seems like it was ages ago and it's only been 2 months! The time flies....
AWww we are praying for Sarah! I love the kids playing doctor!
