Chloe's Back!

We have our daughter back!  Yes, she finally seems back to normal.  She is acting like her happy, content self.  For the last week and a half, she has sort of been on the edge of fussy the whole time.  Anything seemed to set her off, but now she is back to her playful, happy self.  It is so great to see her smile, giggle, tease and play.  We were missing that and are super excited that she is feeling so much better.  She is also eating better and is probably eating the same amount she did before the surgery.  Our only issue is her sleep.  She is still having a hard time sleeping through the night.  We hope this will continue to improve especially after we take off the no no guards. 

We went back to the doctor on Monday.  He said everything looked great.  She needs to continue the pureed food and no no guards for 1.5 weeks more and then she can eat and do whatever she wants.  We don't have to go back and see him for 2 months.  At that time, he will determine if she needs speech therapy.

She looks great.  I am going to post some pictures so you can see how amazing it looks.   From a distance it is hard to tell she has even had surgery.

Too cute

Happy and smiling again!
