Well, we made it back around 3:30pm today after a big day of traveling. Yesterday was pretty unexciting. We spent the morning walking around the mall and Trader Joe's to kill some time and get some exercise. Then we ate lunch by the pool to try to keep Davis entertained. There were a million kids playing so he enjoyed the scenery and ate a good amount of yogurt and puffs, which made us feel like he was getting back to himself again. Then we laid low and ate at the hotel restaurant (tried the Walleye fingers...pretty good!). We did swing by the Ronald McDonald House Bingo game for a while and Davis got the first Bingo! We picked out "Where the Wild Things Are" as his prize and got a chance to say goodbye to the volunteers who were so amazingly nice, and then to bed early. Today was just two quick flights to get home, and Davis slept on both which made our trips nice and smooth. It was such a great feeling to touch down in Denver and know that we're back with the new and improved Davis 2.0 (props to Scott G. for that nickname). My parents picked us up at the airport with a fun sign and all. Seeing their faces was just the excitement Davis needed to come to life again. He seems so happy to be home and to see Ella. She gave him a few kisses and looked really glad to see him and us all again. Davis also had a terrific appetite tonight and gobbled up a whole YoBaby yogurt, a bunch of snacks and then a few small cheese ravioli after that. Needless to say, he went down to sleep pretty easily and we're keeping our fingers crossed that he sleeps well tonight so we can too. So we're all unpacked, just ate some dinner (compliments of mama K) and plan to spend the next few days settling into normal life again.

I can't believe that beautiful little boy just had surgery! He looks great Cara! I hope you all get settled back in at home and get some rest. I'm sure it's been a long trip, but so glad to hear the surgery was succesful. Take care!

Can it be, but I declare it looks like Davis has already grown 2 sizes!! What an absolutely marvelously delicious smile!! What a wonderful celebration you must have had at your arrival back home. The new 2.0 Davis is certainly getting busy enjoying life!!
I love the smiles on all three of your faces!! What a joy to be home in familiar surroundings and with a smiling, happy Davis. God bless you all as you rest up this weekend and look forward to smiling days ahead.
