Happy Easter

Easter was a great day at the McNeil household.  Although it started in the morning with Ava pulling out her G-tube and having stomach contents get all over her clothes and rocker chair, it was nothing but up from there!  Her G-tube is a button that is placed into a hole in her belly that is less than a centimeter in diameter and held in by a balloon that inflates internally to probably 4 centimeters in diameter.  Yesterday (Easter) was the first time she had pulled it out (completely inflated) and then she did this again today.  She may have to wear onesies under all her outfits now! 

After getting her feeding tube placed back into her belly mommy and daddy helped the girls hunt for Easter eggs in our living room.  Mommy and daddy took turns going to church as usual and then after the girls' nap time we had even more Easter fun.  Ava and Reese got to put on their beautiful Easter dresses that Grammy and Nana bought them.  Luckily they won't only wear these special dresses once, but will also get to wear them when they are dedicated at church in a couple weeks.  They showed off at our friends next door (the Southards) and we hung out outside and had a great time.  The pictures were pretty cute despite Ava's nice bruise on her forehead and it was tough to narrow them down for this entry as you can see.  Enjoy!
