Then we received a big ol package in the mail...full of heart monitor stuff. Okay, no biggie, I'll get it figured out and put it on Livie...Um yeah right, I had to call the 1-800 support phone number more than once, but with their help I finally figured out how the monitor is supposed to work. Livie has to wear this monitor 24/7 and she has to have a cell phone (that reads the monitor) within 10 feet of her at ALL times. If the cell phone gets too far away from her or one of her heart leads isn't picking up a strong enough signal then the monitor goes off and starts beeping. Kind of a pain! The whole time I'm thinking, good thing Livie only has to do this for a couple days...until the man helping me on the phone says, hopefully the next 21 days go by quick for ya...
Um excuse me sir, but WHAT?! 21 DAYS?!?
Yep, Livie has to wear this at all times for 21 looong days...
Its not very big, just very touchy and beep-y!! But Livie loves that is comes with a cell phone that's constantly going off! (;
*little update: Livie's lungs are sounding a lot better, she still has some junk in them and she still has to use her breathing treatments, but hopefully when the weather warms up she won't have to use her breathing treatments so often.
We are really loving the new area we live in and now that Livie is feeling better we're finally getting out of the house (heart monitor and all!) and taking advantage of the nicer weather.
This pic is from our last weekend when the girls came down to see Livie Bug. Gotta love Liv's face!!
Livie and Auntie Ashley
Now that we live a lot closer to Michele, we get to see her more often (:

Happy Saint Patricks Day!!!!
Livie woke up to a breakfast of GREEN!! She thought it was pretty cool eating green waffles and green syrup!
Then we went to the park and played with some friends
Love my girl!

I can't even keep track of my own cell phone let alone stay within 10 feet of my boys. Livie is a trooper.
I am so glad she is feeling better :) My kids would love to have a cell phone within 10 feet of them at all times :) Just let her wear it in a purse she carries around.
21 days!?!?? I had to wear a Holter for 24 hours and it drove me CRAZY. I took it off early. BAD patient.
SO happy to see Livie doing better! LOVE the pics.
Glad everything is going good with your new place. Good luck with the holter monitor, they are kind of a pain.
Yummy, green waffles!! ;) You both look like you are doing good. That is so cool to be roomies with your sister, you guys will have great bonding time and wonderful memories to share.
PS. I'm looking forward to seeing my livie bug this weekend! When you see Vanae tell her Paige is in our prayers. :{
21 days? Wow! Good luck. :) You're a great mom. Your St. Patrick's Day festivities looked like a lot of fun.
How fun! Green waffles! Ha hah.. How cute. :D) Where do you get such cute outfits for both of you. You always look so cute.
Are they serious about the 21 days? Do whatever the doctor tells ya but Kaidence only had to wear hers 24-48 hours and she had a heart transplant! That sounds crazy, maybe double check. I have never heard of them monitoring that long. I want to come and see you sometime soon. I am glad that things are looking up for ya!
It has been a while since I checked Miss Livie's blog and I'm so sorry she wasn't doing well, but glad to hear things are better and you are settling into your new place. When the sun comes out again we would love to have another playdate with you guys. Let us know if you need anything.
So! I am going to Vegas for my bday and I need to buy cute clothes to wear while I'm there! Can you possibly go shopping in a week or 2?
I hope Livie is doing well! Keep us posted, or I'm sure Grandma will ;)
Also, I hope you are loving SJ, it's a great place to live especially with all the new shopping!
How are you liking Utah? I saw your Mom with Livie last weekend and she said you were at Primarys helping out a friend who has a little girl in the picu with almost the same problems Livie had. Woman, as much time as you spend there you should seriously think of getting a job there! =) I'm glad Livie is doing better and hope your friends little one will get out soon! Love Ya
Meg your pics are all so cute (minus the one of me)!! We need to get together soon. Oh, and I need to email you the pics from the basketball game. Love you!
Megan,
I lost track of your blog and just got in touch again. I loved your video, such good memories. It's weird to look back and miss such hard times. I hope all is well for you. Lyvie looks great! We love you.
Megan, I am one of the said blog stalkers :) (thanks for not going private) I found your blog thru Charlie Cooper's. You have had such a rough road and I am always amazed to see how well you bounce back. With your beautiful baby so sick at times and doing so well at others, I know that there is someone watching over you. I pray that Livie is doing better. I can only imagine how terrible it must be to see your precious baby with heart leads and treatments. Thanks for keeping all of us blog stalkers in the loop! You and Livie are special people!
