Evie got to go on a wagon ride around the 3rd floor today! Woo-hoo, something different to do! Her nurse today was Patty, who herself was a patient of Dr. Ilbawi in the past. She has a T-shirt that says "Ilbawi Alumni" and she gave Evie a onesie that says it, too. Patty is WONDERFUL. She unhooked Evie from her leads, hooked her up to a portable oxygen tank, and off we went!
Evie is sitting in her wagon, ready to go:
I know that Evie was interested in riding around the floor and seeing the other babies (by the way, she is the oldest baby in the heart unit right now. We passed 8 other teeny tiny babies!). But for most of the ride she didn't smile and looked bored. Luckily, she got to take another wagon ride later on, when Nana & Grandpa Cermak were there, and she was more animated that time.
After her ride, she got a respiratory treatment and then fell asleep:
Then Auntie Clare came for a visit and brought Evie more jewelry to play with:

Evie does look GREAT! My husband, who knows that I read your blog faithfully every night, looked at Evie's pictures last night and commented on how happy and content she looks after going through so much. She is amazing! Hang in there, she'll be home soon!
Woo-hoo! Wagon ride! Looks like fun. We miss you, Evie...

It looks like Evie is doing so much better! I love the Ilbawi Alumni onesie, so cute! Patty is wonderful, an amazing person and nurse.
The wagon ride I am sure was great for Evie! Any news of going home anytime soon?
We think about you all the time & pray for Evie!
