AWESOME news

We have had a wonderful week! Last Thursday we went to meet with Dr. Hollier and Dr. Roth (all in the same room which is almost a miracle!) and got wonderful news! Trey will not have to have another surgery until he is out of his toddler years! They want him to have plenty of time to be potty trained and develop so we can decide what all needs to be done at that point! So until then no more stays at Texas Childrens!!!! Dr. Roth also seemed quite impressed (which is a hard thing to do) that Trey has some control over his bladder! The reason we know this is because one night I was changing Trey and apparently was not paying enough attention and he pee'd in my face, it took me by total surprise and I laughed....when I started laughing he stopped peeing so I took the diaper back off and he looked at me, giggled and started peeing again (yes....in my face)...this went on several more times and I could not have been happier! Three years ago I would have been completely grossed out by having urine in my face but now I laugh instead, my how things change!

Yesterday was our wedding anniversary and when DJ asked me what I wanted all I could come up with was him cooking steaks and us going to bed early and that is exactly what we did! It was wonderful! I got 10 hours of sleep and feel like a new person! What a fantastic anniversary!

I get these emails that are called "baby updates" and they basically tell you what is going on in your belly. The update I got yesterday said that Addie would be "viable" if she were to be born at this point. Of course we want her to stay inside for another 2 1/2 -3 months but it was really exciting to know that she could survive! She is a little over 2 pounds and about 14 inches long. She is getting so big! DJ and I went to Babies'R'Us yesterday and got her "coming home outfit". I could not figure out why in the world I was so excited about this until it dawned on me that I did not get to pick out a coming home outfit for Trey. He just had a T-shirt to wear because we could not put anything on him! I think we made up for that down the road when he could wear clothes. He had more clothes than we knew what to do with and only wore about a tenth of them! Well that is all for today! I will add pictures soon!

Addie

DJ and I finally decided on a name a few weeks ago. Addison Elizabeth Nicholds! It was the ONLY name we both really liked...apparently we have completely different taste in girl names. Trey also likes her name. He kisses my belly and says "Addie", I think it's the sweetest thing I have ever seen!
I had a doctors appointment yesterday and all is well! Dr. Rowe said Addie looks great! She weighs about a pound and a half, give or take a few ounces, and she is about 11 inches long! He said in the next month she will double in weight. But the good news about her weight is that she will not be nearly as big as Trey!!! One other thing that he said was that she has "Angelina Jolie lips". He sent me home with a picture of her lips so I could show DJ. Only 3 months and she will be here!
We are enjoying this beautiful weather so much! We have gone down to the park almost everyday. (that is Treys favorite thing to do!) Yesterday we decided to change things up a bit so DJ decided it would be a great day for Trey to wash his Truck. He had a blast!!!
Next week we meet with Dr. Roth and Dr. Hollier to discuss Treys next surgery. I will update ya'll again after that!
