V is for Victory!!!

Finally, David's surgery was approved last Thursday!  It feels like such a victory, I'm so proud of us for sticking it out and making all those nagging and annoying phone calls and getting it done.  I'm sure our surgeon's receptionist didn't appreciate it...but who cares!  We're definitely freaking out a little bit....okay, a lot...after all our little baby is having open head surgery...but we know this is going to be such a cool and amazing journey watching David hear for the first time, and then learn to listen and speak.  This is what we have to do, this is what we've waited 10 months for....so lets go already!

Oh yeah, and David is eating Craisins (yes, dried cranberries...weird), honeydew, edamame, cheddar cheese and lots and lots of peas.  He's also starting to wave, move his hand to say "come here" and today, he stood on his own for like 10 seconds!  Big boy, you're on your way!
