Tuesday was a great day at the docs. We were released to go back to Corpus Christi on Friday morn...yay!  We will come back to Dallas for a follow up appointment on July 23rd & then the next surgery is scheduled for December 4th w/ pre op appts on the 3rd. 
In the Afternoon, we went to the Perot Museum in DT Dallas. It was beautiful but we enjoyed the 2nd floor & down more than the top floors. There was a few interesting things on the upper floors but most of it was a heavy push on evolution & the Big Bang theory. The second floor was fascinating because the kids were able to build and control robots of various types, build constructionary items, and other various hands on activities. The basement held a sports area were you could test your abilities against other athletes & even T-Rex :)

Just a quickie

 Definite progress :)
Steri strips are gone...yay!

I just wanted to let u all know that not to be offended if u text me during the day about questions in regards to Aric and I don't answer you for a hot minute. The time I have to myself is a late at night or early morn, hence why I blog because then everyone can know what is going on without having to send out my infamous book text messages ;) I try to answer as quickly as I can :) I hope to have definite dates tommorrow for as to when I will be returning...thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter...it means the world :)

Heroes among us

Last night there was a group of police officers dressed as super heroes called heroes, cops and kids. They tales to the kids about how they can be heroes too by reporting bullying etc.

I officially have a young teenage adult in the house...where did the time go???

Logan's birthday was celebrated with lots of love and fun. I treated him to an embarrassing morning happy birthday serenade at breakfast :) As well as some of the great moments from his birth...lol. His greatest joy lately is to try to gross me out or to somewhat render me speechless ;) So I just thought I would return the favor...HaHa! The Dallas Aquarium was truly a splendid place. A lot of the birds were out in the open; free flight as well as some of the animals such as the sloth.
This pretty blue bird is of the pigeon family
Fairy penguin 
These little guys were so cute...they even posed for the camera:)
He is so ugly that he is cute!
I soo want one of these cute little Pygmy marmosets

Happy birthday baby..enjoying a cake made by the Cake Boss...yummy!

We did Aric's dressing change in the early morn . I was a little worried because it had come off in his sleep but all was well thank the good Lord :) 
I know the stitches are healing cuz Aric is complaining of itching...lol
