he was so stinkin cute in his little gown :)
he was flirting with the security guards and smiling at everyone who walked by, so i guess i was the only nervous one! my mom came with me and was such a great support along the way. i swear becks likes her better than me after our 3 1/2 week visit!
the sedation came in the form of liquid medicine, and he just fell asleep in my arms. he was pretty out of it though!
here he is all gooped up after his ultrasound. he slept right through it and then woke up right after, but it took him a little while to hold his head up right and to lose the loopiness of sedation - seriously such a little trooper!
next stop was.......pizza hut! we came out of the ultrasound feeling a little doom and gloom with the hole in his heart growing in size, but our doc was top notch and called the pediatric cardiologist in calgary to consult about the results. he wasn't even supposed to be working today, but he went the extra mile and had us come to his office for the next step discussion. we needed food 1st though, so we filled up on the pizza hut lunch buffet (mmmmm!), and becks filled up on lemons! haha he loved them!
becks had to get a heart trace done at our doctor's office, and he was yet again - a super trooper! he looked at the 12 different cords and stickers stuck to his chest and kept his hands down just like he was supposed to! he even flashed the nurse some smiles along the way :)
didn't really love the getting those cords and stickers off part though!
and i just had to add one more picture of our becks as his normal smiley self! he was so awesome today, and we get to come home tomorrow with some medication to hopefully shrink up that hole and with a few more appointments and exams to come. we're not sure how it will all end up, but for now, we get to be with our dust again, and becks is happy and healthy, and that's all that matters :) thank you soooooo much for your prayers and support. i know that the Lord's hand was in all of this and that i couldn't have done it without you and Him!!!

He was amazing today and it was just so great to see his great SMILE back on!!!! I loved being the support for Lynz and Becks and they both did great being positive thru the whole process, even when we thought it was looking like they would be staying in Canada a bit longer. But thanks to, I believe, many prayers, as they get to go home and be with their Dust and their home again. We will miss them but are happy they are flying home.
i think it's a given that grammas become favourites....proper grammas will unashamedly spoil like no other!
What a trooper, is right!! He's a cutie and looks like he handled all the poking prodding cords and sedation like a champ! I hope the hole in his heart shrinks quickly and you have no more issues with it again!
I'm glad to hear that Beckham was such a trooper. You're a lucky mom to have such a good boy! I hope all continues to go well with his heart and that darn hole shrinks up!
wow what a trooper is right he is so cute!! You definitely in our prayers not fun to watch your kids go through things like this! Hope all goes well and heals right up. Thank goodness for grandma too eh!!! You are an awesome mom!! ttys
Lynz oh my heck, I have been out of blog land for a while so I had not seen any of this!!! I'm glad that everything seems to be looking up but we will for sure keep little becks in our prayers.
I am SO happy you're home. we'll continue to pray for little becks...you can definitely see the Lords hand play out in all this.
love you all!
xo
hope you had a safe trip home and a happy return to dustin! and your blonde straight hair looks A-mazing! who did it? talk to ya soon.
I'm glad you and the little man are home safe. I know what you mean about Gram's being the favourite, I felt that way too after my Mom had been here for Jack's birthday week.
I'm so glad that everything is going to be okay. What a good little boy he was through all of that! Glad you were able to come home!
Wow, Lynz. That is some scary stuff. I'm glad that Beck was such an amazing little patient for the doctors; that makes it easier.
It looks like he has a bruise on his head in the pizza hut picture. What happened?
ahhh...i've been there!!! bella had to be sedated for her ultrasound for a heart murmur to. i freaked out when they told me they were gonna do that! she was only 3 months. it knocked her out so much that they had to give her an oxygen mask!! well, at least my adventure ended there...with not trips to the ER and not having a million cords attached to her chest! poor becks and mommy! hang tough little guy!
