Love

Dear Issabella,
Yesterday you had to go and see a special doctor. This doctor ordered blood work for you and we had no idea how much blood they were going to take. It ended up being nine tubes/viles of blood. You then had to have a sweat test. The sweat test has to be done again because you did not sweat enough. So we will go  back again next Tuesday. You were a real trooper.


Your daddy and I love you so much and it was hard to see you so upset when they were drawing you blood. You were still polite when they were taking your blood saying please and thank you. That's our girl.


This first picture is of you after you had your blood drawn and waiting for your sweat. We had to wait 30 mins with your arm wrapped up that way.

After we left the hospital we went over to Red Lobster for a late lunch. You loved sitting by the fish tank and were very hungry. You had your chicken fingers, my shrimp linguine, and some of daddy's lobster tail.  After eating we told you that you could go to the Disney store and get a toy. You wanted a Jessie stuffed animal. They did not have any and so you got a Buzz.

When you got home from your big day you told me that you wanted your jammies on and that they must be your Minnie Mouse ones. This is how your daddy and I found you a few minutes later.

Issabella your daddy and I love you very much and would do anything for you. I wish I could have had them take my blood and not have you be in pain. You are the sunshine in our lives Issabella, we can't even imagine our lives without you. You are our butter!


Love, Mommy and Daddy
