New puppy

Here is our newest addition to the family. We got her on Wednesday. She is 9 weeks old and her name is Kaiah. She is a blue heeler/black lab mix. We all are loving having a puppy around....even the cat! They are now friends and were chasing each other around this morning and wrestling.

















On another note, Kaden had his yearly cardiology appointment yesterday and it went VERY well!! The Dr said everything looks BEAUTIFUL and he couldn't be happier! His heart function is great and the pressures are coming down in the areas that they were concerned about which means that he is finally growing into the repairs that were made! All the repaired areas are holding up great. There is very mild regurgitation through the mitral valve repair, but it is nothing to worry about. He said that there is rarely a valve repair that doesn't have a little. We compared last years echo with this years and the aortic stenosis is definitely lessened which is what is helping his pressures come down. I asked about future surgeries and the Dr said that unless something drastic happens, he doesn't think he will need anything further done until he is an "old man".
