Ella's "Tumm" Surgery Part Deux

Ella had her second Pollicization(new "tumm") surgery. She was a super trooper through the whole thing. We are always in awe of her bravery.

Our hands the night before her surgery.

 The 3 Peas in a Pod prepping for surgery.

All Done!!!! Sleepy Smiles and earrings have been put back in (this was a major concern for Ella!).

Ella with Dr. Failla at her post op visit.

Ella LOVES, LOVES, LOVES Dr. Failla. We are forever grateful to him (and we LOVE him too). Ella is demonstrating to her doctor how strong her thumb from the surgery last year has gotten. She is always pinching David's nose (it is a game they play), so Dr. Failla said he wanted her to pinch his nose. She thought it was hilarious!!!!

Spa Night!!!!

Ella requested to have a Spa Night at home.

When you visit a spa you must have a Spa-ish meal (peanut butter, banana, honey sammy, veggie sticks, fresh strawberries, and a juice spritzer with strawberry garnish and fancy straw).

 

Setting the stage: Fresh flowers, avocado/banana face mask, sugar and lotion scrub.

Hair treatment complete and moving onto a Sprite/Rainbow Sherbet refresher (with fancy straw).

 

 Avocado/Banana Facial with cool cukes to soothe the eyes.





 

Sugar and lotion scrub for the feet, then to soak them in the tub with floating flower petals.



 

All clean! Now, for the polish!

 

We had a great time!!! She liked my stories of actually going to a "spa" and having all these services done for you. I think I have her hooked on being pampered!!!

 

I think David will be buying multiple giftcards in the future to the local day spa for his girls.

Ella wanted a Fairy themed birthday party this year. There wings and glitter abounding throughout the house!

We made Fairy Homes for the fairies that live in Pixie Hollow. We also made beautiful glitter butterflies.

This was back on Christmas Day.

We always go to my Mom's home every Christmas Day morning for breakfast (chocolate sauce and biscuts). Everyone four years old and under crawled up on my lap and David took the photo.

I see you! Are you still there?

So, there have been some technical difficulties for a few months. Blogger changed some things around and for awhile I was unable to post any photos or videos.

Everything seems to be fixed now, so hopefully, I can get back into the routine of posting photos and videos of our sweet Ella!!!!
