Great check up!

Our first trip as a family of five was a success!  Wish I could say it was a relaxing trip :/  I don’t think I’ll be using that word in the same sentence as vacation for sometime….. hmm 18 years or so?!  Aside from the fact that Jed decided that he no longer enjoys his car seat and screams till we ALL start turning blue, it was a fun trip!  We started out at the D-backs game, had a great time at the zoo and enjoyed some pool time at the resort.  I also got a chance to meet up with my Europe buddy, Jessica and her family for pizza and finally meet her new little guy.  We all got a kick out of the fact that they placed us in the private sound proof room in the back when we didn’t ask for it!  I guess that’s what happens when you walk into a restaurant with five little terrors! 

The best part of the trip had to be the great news that we received from Jed’s cardiologist.  His condition has improved since his last procedure, which now puts that valve in only a mild-moderate category of stenosis.  This is something that he seems to think that Jed can live with for “a long long while!”  Follow up echos have also been spread out to every couple of months too, so we won’t have to return till mid June!  Yeah Jedi!

This is how Jed & I rolled the majority of the trip….thanks to Becca for letting me use her awesome carrier.  This is the kids standing outside of Baxter’s house!

The kids got to hit a few balls pitched by the players themselves!

GG’s favorite part of the zoo was getting to pet the sting rays!
