What A Week!!!

Wow! What a week!!! Glad to say one down...one and a half to go. 
Samuel's MRA as I said before, went well and we found out from the heart surgeon that he has the shunts (the problem areas) in his heart each of which are making little man stay exactly that.  But he seems confidant that the surgery will be effective and go well.  I'll be reporting on that next Thursday...as his surgery is next Wednesday!!!! Can't believe it's next week...pray for me I'm starting to get nervous and a little scared but I know that the Lord has everything totally and completely under control.
Please Keep Mr. Samuel in your prayers the next week and a half.  After his MRA this week he seems to developed a rather nasty cough and congestion.  I don't know if it's a combination of the breathing tube they had to put in for the MRA on top of some more teething and not an all together wonderful week.  But pray that the Lord would allow him to get over whatever it is and that he would be health and well for his surgery next week.
Oh yes, Samuel got his hearing aids this past week as well! HE IS SOOOOO CUTE...even with the hearing aids! Here's a picture to prove it! :)

These are a temporary pair as the ones they ordered for him are still not in. The ones they ordered for him are much slimmer and RED! :) We are still adjusting to having them and he's already pulled them out and tried to eat them a few times, the right ear more than the left. I can tell already that he is more aware of sounds around him and I'm trying to pay close attention to what sounds and noises he reacts to.  I'm hoping that our OT can help me a little with the hearing aids today and just kinda tell me a few things that I should be looking for in the way of his being able to hear things.  It's super exciting to know that he is able to hear more than he did before. Pray that he would continue to adjust well to the hearing aids and that he wouldn't be bothered by them.

We continue to pack up things throughout the week for our big move in two weeks...getting excited to be back in Louisville.  Samuel spent all Saturday with his Grandma and even had his first sleepover.  We are so grateful to Grandma for keeping him so that we were able to get the entire kitchen packed and moved to their garage.  We were also able to have a date night and celebrate Scott's birthday at the same time...first time we've been able to celebrate his birthday on his actual birthday sense being married. :)
We got together with friends and family at Scott's parents house yesterday for a pizza and board game birthday party.  Scott had a blast, he loves board games!

Well, I think that's all the catching up I have to do!
Busy week of packing and cleaning...keep me in your prayers!  I'm also trying to find lifeguards to take my last four shifts at the pool so that I can keep packing and getting things done, pray that the Lord would provide those guards easily and that I would ask the right people.

I pray everyone is doing well and that you had a wonderful weekend.
