The holiday weekend turned bad when Brady found Ella blue laying on our bed Friday night. We'd just gotten home from catching our own trout for dinner and after 500 tests at the hospital found out that little Ella had choked on her own reflux. Luckily the only thing that took a hit was her liver that quickly recovered and after almost a week in the Ped's Intesive Care we went home with an apnea monitor and no sleep! But, we did have a little funtaking pictures in-between a CT Scan, MRI, EKG, EEG, Spinal Tap, Blood Culture, Urine Culture, Mucus Culture, Urinalysis, 24 PH Study, Apnea Study, Chest X-RAY, Video Swallow, Upper GI and 3 failed IV's. Bless little Ella's heart!

Best quote of the day.
Washing hands in a public bathroom yet again, someone TOOTS and ella says REALLY loudly "Mom! Did you hear that DUCKLING sound?? That was a DUCk but it has FEET and FLIP-FLOPS!!" - 9/10
Ella- Washing hands in a public bathroom, someone enters and Ella says REALLY loudly "Mom...there's a BOY in there!! Oh...no, it's a girl. She just has a MUSTACHE!" -9/10
"...and please bless Alec.....that's me, the one that's saying the prayer...." - 10/12/09
It took mom getting in the shower for the kids to realize that ....oh yeah, we are really hungry. So after my shower, I come into the kitchen and Alec had poured Ella a bowl of Pops and cut bananbas in it. I asked him how he cut the bananas and he said matter-of-factly "with my this." pointing to the karate chopping area of his hand. Isn't he a resourceful young lad. -9/25/09
After a few unsuccessful attempts at trying to get me to understand her interesting accent, Ella put her hands on her head and said exasperatedly "You awah dwinveen me twazy!" -9/09
