[tinytreasures]

Any word yet on dates?

there is no way we can get plane tickets and hotel lined up that fast right now for Grandma and Grandpa to come

I've got plenty of tiny ones. It's been crazy lately. LOTS of premature births.

There is a special place in heaven (or whatever you believe) for people who can do foster care...I never could.

I wish we lived by a bigger town
I would love a newborn or 3 around here
we had a sibling group of 4 for a yr that just went home and it is so quiet here
I have been sitting by the phone waiting for it to ring

WOW. We have a severe foster shortage around here. It's terrible. We can't even find homes for newborns. Used to be just a problem placing teens. Now we can't find homes for anyone. It's terrible. None of our fosters wait by the phone. We pick one up and drop another off

that is so sad
I know 4 foster homes in my town waiting by the phone right now
we are all just praying the little ones are safe out there

Yup, cuz it's so hard not to just wrap them up and take them home with you when they are sitting in the office all day awaiting a home.

that makes me want to cry
the last call I got the worker said meet me at my office I have a baby for you
I beat her by 10 min

 

[tinytreasures]

we went for a normal 6 month check up and came out with 4 casts
A and H have both really tightened up so they casted them today to try and loosen their calf's muscles
H needs to go in for a MRI they are worried he may have fluid on the brain or a tether cord (that means his spine to tight around the nerves -I think- so he would need surgery if he has one or the other) at this point it would be nice if they do find something so we can fix it instead of just playing with meds that are not really working
A surprised the doctor on how tight she got so he is thinking foot surgery again for her they were talking about holding off till she is in her later teens but we may need to do it earlier
I am already sore from carrying them around and it has only been 3 hours
H refuses to walk at all, A is walking just fine but she is slow and tried

Awww.. poor kids! Though I have to say I love their smiles! Hugs to you!!

 

[maroo]

oh my goodness! bless their hearts!!

their casts are so cute!

So, will they have those on in Disney? If so...take a marker so that all the characters can sign them!

nope they should be cast free in a few weeks

bummer news today from our wish granter
MAW forgot to send grandma's paperwork to the doctor for him to sign
it took him a month to sign our stuff wonder how long it will take this time

so they are thinking end of Feb or march now

 

[HeatherSue]

Those are two ADORABLE children!! At least they have pretty/cool cast colors now!

Aw man, I can't believe they're still working on paperwork! Do you want me to call that doctor for you?

oops I forgot to update here
they are looking at Feb 19 as a travel date
they sent more paperwork back to the doctor requesting that Grandma AND Grandpa both get to go as PCA's *wiping tears here*
the MAW lady said she would keep calling until he signed it and there was no reason why both shouldn't be able to come
she hopes to have dates this week so we could tell the kids Christmas morning what day we are going

H is moving so we only have to carry him and A back and forth to the car (a foot of snow is not good for leg casts)
H need a lot of help getting dresses but he is moving so that helps a lot

 

[tinytreasures]

we think we have dates
MAW called today and is requesting Feb. 22-28
she is sending it in tomorrow and will get back to us after the new yr
I love our lady she is so cool

 

[maroo]
