Well, they have just took him back, and it is 2:00.  It was suppose to start at 7, but they were a little behind.  They had to do blood work, an EKG and a chest x-ray.  I asked them why we didn’t come in earlier for that and they said because they didn’t want us to have to come on Friday.  The nurse said it would take about four or five hours.  He wasn’t too happy when they told him he would have a tube down his throat.  They also shaved both legs and his chest.  We have been taking pictures, and he asked the nurse if they would take a picture of him opened up.  She said they would.  I guess that is all for now.  I will update when we know something.

3:30:  He is in pre-op, so it will still be a while.

7:15: I checked with the ICU nurses’ station and they said everything was going well.

We made it to Houston around 10 last night, and we are so glad we came on yesterday.  The drive wasn’t too bad; however, since we come here so much we have gotten used to the drive. 

We got our bed, living room furniture and most of Emma Grace’s room moved Thursday evening.  Thanks to Grammy, Karri, Amber, Lizzy, Greg Ezell, Brandon Ezell, Austin Ezell, Angela Ezell, and Cheyenne Ezell for helping us move.  There was another man there but I don’t know his name.  We spent Thursday and Friday night there, and it was so nice to woke up in it.  I thought we would NEVER get to this point.  We still have lots to move when we get back, but thank goodness we can take our time.  There are a few things that need to be worked on or fixed.  The inspector is coming Tuesday, I think.  We tried to get him to come Friday evening, but he wouldn’t.  Hopefully, we will pass and everything can be finalized when we get back.  We are hoping to sign the papers either the 27th or 30th. 

Emma Grace is still entertaining.  She says the funniest things.  I wish I would think to write everything down, but I always think about it when I am sitting down to do this.  She was so excited that we were coming here and she could see big, tall buildings, and when she did, she let us know. 

We gave Wes some collage pictures of him and Emma Grace.  I also ordered him a blanket with one of the collages.  Emma Grace is also getting one.  They are suppose to be delivered here one day this week.  Thanks Karri for doing them for me.

Well, we need to go to Target, and someone is demanding to go.  We thought about going to the Aquarium, but I don’t know.  Wes doesn’t really need to walk a lot.  He hasn’t been feeling well.  He had to stop taking his medicine on Thursday, and has been getting a little more winded(if that is a word) and tired when he walks.  I don’t know if he could have gone much longer.  Guess we better get to Target.  Later….
