In May of 2012 Kenny and I welcomed our baby girl, Lucy Grace. Lucy was diagnosed with Spina Bifida when I was 20 weeks pregnant. Like many other families our experience was difficult and painful to talk about in the beginning. I have attempted to document our journey with SB so our family and friends can stay informed. Although we had some serious medical challenges in the first few months, Spina Bifida does not define our daughter or our family. Kenny and I are so lucky to have two kids we adore. This is our life with a 7 yr old and an infant....with an SB twist!

Happy Thanksgiving

Mike and I hosted my family this year for the first time which was very fun. We'll cook the turkey a tad longer next year ;o) but otherwise it went off without a hitch!

Cage Free

Noah has officially broken out of his crib. He was put in his bed for a time out and about a minute later he came walking out into the living room. Mike and I just looked at eachother and then threw him back in to get a video lol.

Scotch tape and Sharpened Pencils

I am officially a full time student! Mike has been attending the University of Phoenix online for the past few months and I just decided it was time for me to go back as well. So my classes started today and i'm offically on my way. The first few classes are mandatory but all of my transcripts, including Siena, are on their way to be evaluated for transfer credits. Within the next few weeks I should know exactly where I stand towards graduation, woooohoooo!

The Cookie Caper

Here is Noah taking teddy for a test ride in his new Jeep wagon that Grandpa & Grandma got him for his birthday. Instead of a nice cold drink, he likes to keep his half eaten banana in the cup holder, yum.
