He looks great! His nose looks sooo good! How long is he? Vada was weighed and measured the other day and she is 14 1/2 lbs and 25 1/2 inches long. She about 5 1/2 months old. We had a little mishap today. Her older sister, who is seven, swung a puzzle in Vada's direction, totally an accident and it hit Vada right in the middle of the nose where the nose connects with the mouth! Started bleeding a bunch a few mins later and I called the Plastic surgeon right away. There is a litttle slash there i noticed when i could get around to cleaning it without her screaming like she was dying but the plastics resident said that even if it needs a stitch or something they would wait until after everything had healed. Guess we will find out on Monday when we go in for post op. When i took her up to the hospital the other day i totally spaced on bringing her arm restraints, the nurse that saw her said she could care one way or the other, as far as she is concerned, if the want their hands and its healed up enough, give them their hands back. She did tell me to put the restraints on right before the post op to make the surgeon feel better:)
