Shaun Update

Shaun had a mediport put in this morning which is basically a little disc under the skin on his chest that the doctors can use instead of an iv. I think he is relieved to have it since it took 5 needle sticks to get his iv in today for the procedure. It looks like he has a golf ball under his skin but I think after the swelling goes down, it won't be very noticable.

We have also had a lot of success on the housing front. Shaun flew to Chicago and found us an apartment! We will be moving into the Green at Chevy Chase in Buffalo Grove. It seems like a really nice place and best of all its close to my parents! Move in date is Monday for any in town friends who don't have to work.

Lastly, we have an offer on the house!! They accepted our counter offer so we are under contract. So hopefully everything goes smoothly and the buyers financing goes through and we can close on the house at the end of October. I think that is all for now but we will continue to keep everyone updated. I promise to keep the Bryce videos coming since they appear to be a big hit. Side note, he was with me while we waited for Shaun today at the hospital and everyone commented on how wonderful of a baby he is. They didn't notice the huge blow out from his diaper that went all the way up his shoulder blades. I really liked those pajamas too, now they are in the trash can in the hospital bathroom. Man, wouldn't want to go in there later this afternoon!

Glad to hear that the mediport procedure went well! A golf ball could come in handy at your new home.

See you soon :)
