Saturday we slept way in, about 12 hours total..it's safe to say we were all exhausted. Jon and I ordered in some Indian food that was delicious! Jaylia enjoyed a burger and mcflurry!
Sunday we had a bit more energy, and went for a few walks around the neighborhood. Jaylia's swelling decreased a lot!
We had to get some Dunkin donuts, though they weren't as good as I remember.
Jon and I liked the Indian food so much, we went to the restaurant and had their buffet for dinner. Jaylia didn't want Indian food, so she played on her tablet while we ate and we grabbed her another burger and mcflurry on the way home.
Monday (today) we planned to go to the Ben Franklin Institute and see the Harry Potter exhibit, but Jaylia woke up not feeling 100% so we stayed home. We may try to go tomorrow. She slept a bit and woke up feeling better.
As you can see her swelling is way better! Her incision looks good and we have a follow up with her surgeon on Wednesday before we fly home.
It all feels so unreal. It took about a year from finding the craniosynostosis to surgery, and I'm still in disbelief that it all happened. I look back at photos and study her skull to see if I can pinpoint when it started, or if it was ever asymmetrical, but nothing jumps out. I thank God for guiding us to finding it and for protecting her. Jay is processing it all too, we were talking last night about the surgery and how he did it and why it was important. She seems to understand, and now that we are through it, it doesn't freak her out.
In less deep news- Jay is getting pretty good at yo-yo-ing!
