Doctors Appointment
On October 14th Charity had an appointment with her surgeon. I thought he was going to dilate her and look and her. He did, but he also told me that Charlie and I need to start dilating her at home. We will be doing this for 14 weeks straight. There is no problem with Charity we are just doing this to "open things back up". But she is doing great. She is 3 months and developing well. She gets cuter and cuter every day.

Update.
Wow, Charity is almost 3 months old!
Ok, it's been a few weeks so here is an update. Charity has had two more appointments. On September 13th she had her 2 month check up. Her pediatrician looked at her and she got her first round of shots. Charity was not happy after her shots. On September 16th she had another follow up with the surgeon. The surgeon didn't actually look at her this time. Another doctor came in first and looked at her to see if things look normal.. Then the surgeon came in and he talked about certain signs to look for if things go bad again. Our next appointment with the surgeon is October 14. Charity has a whole month without having anybody look at her.
Also, Charity and I went to the breastfeeding resource center to get another lesson. Although there are ways to get Charity to nurse, it is very frustrating for her and for me since she is old now. Although I will continue to use the suggestions the resource center gave me, my main concern is that Charity is getting breast milk. So, I will continue to pump and build up a supply.
Finally, on the 26th of September Charlie and I had Charity Baptized! It was a great day and we are very excited that she has entered the faith. Here are some pictures.
