Jaime Albert Trost was diagnosed with Right-Sided Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia at 19 weeks gestation. He was born at 34 weeks gestation on 4/16/09 as a hemophiliac with his liver and intestines in his chest. Jaime had his 1st repair surgery at 23 days old. He re-herniated in September 2009, causing his bowels, kidney and liver to be up in his chest. He had his 2nd repair surgery at 194 days old. Though Jaime still has many medical challenges ahead of him, today he is a thriving KINDERGARTENER who has beaten the odds!

Wheee......

Jaime enjoyed his 1st trip ever to the park tonight. We went with Colleen and her kids. We were both "single moms" for the night, so we took the kids out for "Special Treat Dinner" to Jerry's Dari Pride (Jared had a hot dog, slushy and nachos) and then we went to Coulby Park.
The kids had a GREAT time, especially Jaime! :) He went down one of the slides a few times...with Mommy's help, of course and he LOVED the swing. He was fascinated with how tall it was....much different then our backyard one!
He's feeling better...still has that stupid cough that makes him throw up, though. He threw up twice today and he's down to 19lbs 4oz as of yesterday. He saw his pediatrician...she put him on an antibiotic for his obvious sinus infection. Jared's on one, too...it's funny because both boys have to take them twice a day, so I've made a big deal about Jared taking his...now Jaime takes his...OK, with minimal fighting! :)
Chillin' on my porch with some chocolate Pediasure!
First time at the park...and in a park swing!
Overall things are good! The weather has been BEAUTIFUL, I FINALLY got my front yard done...I laid the last 2 bags of mulch down today when Jaime's nurse was here. Can't wait to get the backyard done....got the bags of mulch ready to go, now I just have to weed and Preen!

Not the best picture, but you get the idea!
I just wish all of my perennials would bloom so that I have colors other than green in the front.
My flowers will bloom yellow, purple (3 different shades) and white.
Time for bed! Have a good one!

    Hey, can Jaime give Katie a call and explain how that whole sippy cup thing works? She is sooo not interested! Glad to see the little man happy and doing so much better!

    Sorry to hear about the sinus infections. We've been battling with those and ear infections for the last 3 months. I'm pretty darn tired of it. So glad to hear that all else is well though. B and K are turning one in 2 weeks. Hard to believe! Take care,
    Stephanie
