Post Surgery, Day 2, Update 1

She had a rough night, but Aislyn continues to improve. She couldn't get to a comfortable position to sleep and was pretty restless. Sleeping with her knees to her stomach was the most comfortable position for her. Kim tried putting Aislyn on her side with her knees up which would work for about 10 minutes. Then her binky would fall out and she was up again trying to get comfortable. But on the positive side, they were able to remove the NG tube from her stomach and her pulse-ox monitor this morning, which was fine with Aislyn. She'll still have the urinary catheter until tomorrow morning though. She actually picked up a few of her toys and started to swing them around. She hasn't smiled since the surgery, but at least she was attempting to play a little.

Special thanks to Josiah Snider and his mom Terri for stopping by yesterday and giving Aislyn a pretty balloon. Josiah picked her out a balloon that has a teddy bear with a band-aid on its stomach, "since baby Aislyn had surgery on her belly." He then prayed for her to "get better real fast." Wow, what a blessing!
