DAY 4

Surgery Day!
Well let's say I had a hard time sleeping the night before and I was extremely nervous! Her surgery was scheduled for 11:00 we got to the hospital around 9:30 we held her until it was time to start getting ready to transport her to General Surgery! We were able to walk with her and the nurses down! At this point it seemed a little unreal! We were walking and the nurse who was guiding her bed ran into the wall and it ripped off a IV unit that hung by the side of her bed luckily no IV's were hooked to her so she was unharmed but it took a chunk out of the wall! After that I was 10 times more nervous! This was no way to start! We walked through the doors and meet with the anesthesiologist and talked with him for a while and then gave kisses to Baylee and sent her on her way! I was all emotional by that point! It was hard to let her go knowing what was going to happen! We then went to the waiting room to wait for the update we would recieve halfway through the process... which they told us everything to that point was going really well! We then went and got lunch quickly and headed right back and 2 hours after we kissed her goodbye the surgeon walked through the door and said she was a champ! Things went really smoothly it was a little different then he anticipated which wasn't a problem they just had to connect them a little differently! A hige weight lifted off my chest and we thanked him over and over again! Then headed up to the NICU and waited for her to arrive!
She finally made it up there and this is how the poor girl looked!
Connected to everything possible and looked pretty lifeless! I hated seeing her like this! It left me with a sick feeling in my stomach so I told McKay we needed to go!
We went back to my aunts where my Mom was watching Carter for us!
Carter copying Dad!
Walking into PCMC to visit sister!
Day 5
May 1, 2013
We got up first thing that morning and headed back to the hospital!
Carter felt he needed to ride the car upstairs!
They finally took her off the bili lights! But still on the ventilator and not doing any breathing for herself!
Carter giving her a pat!
We left Grandma Wallin with Baylee and took Carter to the Aquarium to release some energy of being confined to the hospital!
Sitting on the frog!
Touching the stingray!
Loved the penguins!
Dad and Carter getting eaten up!
After we finished at the Aquarium we had to go to Firehouse Subs!
Day 6
May 2, 2013
We went to the hospital first thing! Baylee was still on the ventilator and still on many pain killers! I didn't get any pictures since much hadn't changed!
For lunch we headed to City Creek and ate at the food courts and did a little shopping!
Carter loved the escalators!
