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!

A Boy & His Tools

Here is Noah giving his fire truck a tune-up. He loves playing with tools so if he sees the coveted screwdriver come out he will follow you anywhere!

No more letter mat!

I am so excited that we finally got a carpet for the living room! For months I had been wrestling with those interlocking foam letter blocks trying to keep the floor protected from Noah and I could not be happier to get rid of them! We went to Home Depot and got a berber remnant which just about fills our semi-octagonal room. We also got the thick wall-to-wall padding to go underneath which makes it a little extra cushy. Noah, our perpetually naked child, seems to love it as well. ;o)

Go Giants!

We went over to David's house for his annual Superbowl party. We, of course, were decked out in Giants gear. Fortunately Noah was able to squeak by with one more use out of his jersey before the end of the season. He is such a big boy, he even sat at the big table with the Dad and Uncle Mikey, although a pb&j stood in for the 5-alarm chili. Sherry found that hilarious hat/game that made David about 8 feet tall. I left early to put Noah to bed but Mike was positively giddy when he got home after the game!
