Happy Birthday Blog


Mia sings Happy Birthday to Mom.

Today is Francesca's 34th birthday! We all had a great day together. Martha, Jerry, Mary and Kai came up to visit and celebrate with us and Roberta, who came to Boston yesterday despite her car breaking down right as she got to the Orient Point Ferry!


Tube Girl

So far so good with the G tube. The docs came to examine it today and said everything looks great. We've already started using it. Mia is taking most of her feed by mouth, and the little bit that's left over goes right in the tube. It's also handy for giving her her meds.


Mia gets her party dress on.

We should be getting discharged either Friday or Monday. We're still working out the details but it's getting close!


Mia and Kai, together at last!

It was awesome to have Kai and Mia finally meet. Kai was excited to meet his cousin, but was really excited to see all the cool toys and stuffed animals she has around her crib.


The girls.


Cha cha cha!


We celebrated Francesca's Birthday at this wonderful little Italian restaurant in Newton, near where we're staying. A perfect ending to a wonderful day!

Happy Birthday Francesca,
The look of love that Mia's giving you is so precious.

keep you all in my prayers.

I'm so disappointed that I wasn't there to celebrate your birthday. It seems every time something special is happening, I go ahead and get sick. I'm getting tired of this!!! Mia looked so beautiful in her party dress and Kai is a doll and it was nice seeing the two cousins together. Hope to see you soon!!!
Love and kisses, Aunt Theresa & Uncle Mickey

We all loved seeing you last week! It was really a very special day for the Schenker girls, sharing with the Massachusetts chapter of the Zingarelli/Buffo clan.

We love you all. But we have one problem: we want equal time on the blog!
