It finally happened!!

Hey everyone!

I just wanted to share a quick update. Life has been going pretty well around here. Most recently though, we had something awesome happen!  On May 9th, Atticus was able to have his fenestration closed!!  His new circuitry is finally complete!  His oxygen sats have been staying in the mid-90s.  I've never seen him look so pink! I can't believe this is the same kid that we used to be happy so long as they stayed above 75!  He handled the cath like the total rock star that he is. One quick night in the hospital for monitoring, and we were on our way home the next day.

As expected, he was kind of sore for a little while, but it didn't slow him down for long. He now has even more energy than before!  *insert happy but terrified "yeah!"*  We've mostly just been enjoying the warming weather with a few ventures to the pool already, and finishing off his 1st year of school. He's blossomed a little with his vocabulary. He's added several new signs recently, and refers to my phone as "Batman" because of my phone case, lol.  

All in all, life has been pretty good recently. Thank you for checking in on us, and I'll keep updating as things happen. Most importantly, keep on prayin'!
