Sadie's Surgery

After another 4 hours at Primary Children's Hospital and another CT scan, Sadie's Dr confirmed she has Hydrocephalus and will need to have a shunt put in her head to drain the extra fluid.
They had us tentativly on their schedule tomorrow. We could have rescheduled but this has drawn on long enough and since her 1st birthday is on Tuesday we decided to get it over with so she could start her 2nd year of life off much better!
The surgery is only and hour so she should be done about 9am. But they will keep her overnight.
The Dr explained recovery as an exagerated bump on the head. In a few days she should be great.
We are glad they "unkown" period is over and are excited to have the next two days over with as well.
Other than that, Spencer's neck surgery went well. His three week check up was on Monday and the Dr said he is the fastest healing person he knows and gave him the go ahead to go hunting next week!
The other little person we are awaiting is doing great. Im roughly 6 months pregnant. Its been breeze so far! Which has been a blessing since Spencer and Sadie are keeping things exciting around here, we forget sometimes that I am even pregant...other than the fact that my stomach is getting big!
Thanks for all the love and support!
More to come from the exciting lives of the Stevens fam!
