We're ending 2013 on a good note..
besides a runny nose, Grace is healthy!!
It's been a good past year, a few bumps along the way..
but to end it with a healthy Grace.. is all that's really important to us!
Grace had two music class sessions this year..
& two swim class sessions as well..
(we'll shoot for the same in 2014)
she absolutely loves them both... she loves swimming with Dada
on Saturday's, and going to music class with Mommy on Friday mornings.
She celebrated her 2nd birthday in August with friends & family
she was wearing 9-12 month clothes & in a size 3 diaper..
weighing in at 19lbs, 31" long.
Grace is now closer to 22 lbs. In size 18 month clothes
she's around 33-34" tall (we'll know for sure on Jan. 6th)
Grace is now sitting up, pretty much unassisted..
& standing up quite tall with little to no support.
She also just got her walker at home..her 'gait trainor' and goes in it
daily.. with a iphone as motivation, she'll walk across the room in it
to grab the phone!
She was only in the hospital 1x this year.. back in June..
where she had her gtube revised. A 3-day stay turned into an 18 day
stay, and we almost lost her.. but on the positive, her gtube has never
looked so good.. & she's gained a significant amount of weight since then.
She had her visit to the beauty parlor in December..
and another slated for January!!
(someone! has to help us with these curls!!)
A few weekend trips away.. NH last February..
and a visit to gramma & grandpa in NY in May & November.
Next year, we are looking at a warmer climate for vacation!
Here is she is January 2013:
and just the other day..
A big difference..but still the cutest little girl in the world!!
Thanks for reading about little Miss Grace..
we appreciate all your thoughts & prayers for her!
As a stranger at the UPS Store said to me in June,
"You're both so lucky to have each other.."
YES WE ARE!!
Happy & Healthy New Year to you all!!
Love,
pattie & gary, Grace & maxwell
