Goin' on a birdie hunt

So London had to get some testing done last week and it was no fun at all. One of the procedures (a VCUG) required sedation so she had to go the entire day without food. :( In an attempt to keep her distracted from her grumbling tummy, we went outside to enjoy the beautiful weather. We followed those little birdies all around the neighborhood!

So, up until this morning, we actually had no idea how successful London's surgery was. It's possible to still have a bit of reflux even after surgery, so these tests were to see how well her ureters, kidneys and bladder are functioning

But here's the good news:
London was given a clean bill of health by her urologist today!!
Do you know what that means?! It means no more antibiotics--that's what it means! And no more reflux!! No more physically restraining my baby to a table while she looks up at me with those beautiful, brown eyes {tears streaming and pooling into her ears} pleading with me to stop those mean doctors from hurting her. No more unexplained fevers or trips to the ER in the middle of the night! Hallelujah!! We are so happy! Can you tell?! (judging by the number of exclamation marks!!!!!!!)

Check out the beautiful blossoms growing on our trees right now! They make me happy!

And so does my baby's excited laughter during airplane rides.

Until she spits on my face. On purpose.
