Welcome to St. Louis!!!

Where did the time go?!?  I blinked and now we are in St. Louis and Bailey is currently in the operating room where Dr. Park is performing a miracle!  We (my hubby and I) are anxiously awaiting another update from the O.R.  I'm still a bag of nerves, but I know she is in the best hands!!

Here's a look at the last 3 weeks...

Bailey has been working VERY hard with Jen, her therapist at Shriner's hospital, 2x per week for the last 6 weeks to get strong enough for surgery.  Although it was hard work, Jen always found a way to make it fun!


We had to buy a new stroller for Bailey to roll around in after surgery and, after a little more work than it should have been, we got it, and it works perfectly.  We were happy to learn that the stroller was also Barbie approved... :) Bailey was also SO excited when we bought her her very own suitcase, and of course, she chose Paw Patrol, with a Frozen backpack...

 Here we are, packing for the trip to the airport and waiting to board.

And we are ready to go...








And, after an exciting plane ride, we arrived in COLD St. Louis.




















 She was really excited to be at the hotel, and get ready to meet Dr. Park.  She had great dreams!

She LOVES hotels!!
