Kade no longer has a button!! Yes, we have a button-less boy. The surgeon removed it yesterday and all is going well. It is only covered with some gauze and a Looney Toon band-aid. If by chance the skin doesn't close up by Monday, we will have to go in and have them place a stitch in. It is not leaking like they said it might so we are thankful that!
Kade still is hesitant about walking. He will take steps, but then drops down and crawls. He does have bruises to show is willingness to climb though. He is always so proud when he reaches the top of whatever he is conquering!
We had fun over Halloween, Kade was Roo from Winnie the Pooh and Hanna was a bride. We attended a gathering at the Omaha Children's museum that was hosted by a group called Dance Marathon. It is a group of college kids that have a 12 hour dance marathon for Children's hospital. It was fun to play and meet other families and hear their stories. The event will be held on February 19th, but the have gatherings every other month. Our favorite Surgery resident, Dr. Worth met us at the museum and she was so happy to see how well Kade was doing. We are thankful that our encounters with Surgeons are strictly social these days!!
Keep checking on us and I will try to post every now and then!
Thanks again for all your prayers!

Sounds like you have alot to be thankful this Thanksgiving! God is good!
