My Little Warrior : October 2014

Hello all!! It’s been a while since I have wrote on here. We have been a wee bit busy. Adalynne is now THREE MONTHS OLD!!! We have made it another beautiful month and I could not be more ecstatic. She has been healing up perfectly from her surgery and so far the fluid has not started to increase dramatically. Her seizures have lessened and we hardly see them anymore. Plus we are back to a bottle and eating 4 ozs!!! Wohoooooo! I am pretty sure she is in a growth spurt because she has been back to eating almost every 2 to 3 hours. Less sleep for me but happy to see her growing. I started working with a massage therapist last week who has shown me some Chinese medicine techniques to help her energy flow and muscle tone, extremely excited about it! I am over the moon that it is October, my favorite month that ends with my favorite holiday. We get to attend the Capturing Hopes Halloween event this weekend and see all the beautiful people who help families get pictures of their little warriors. I also just met with the fantastic photographer Deborah Hendrix (a Davie county local : ) ) who is from Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep, the organization that captured our first family encounter hours after our sweet warrior was welcomed into this world. To any photographers reading this please, please, please go and check out both of these volunteer groups they are always in need of people to come and capture a family and their beautiful creations. As I said October is my favorite month and along with October comes the fair, another high point in the month. I took Adalynne and Ian with my mom and we had a blast seeing the animals and all the exhibits. It’s something I have gone to every year and to be able to take her made this one very special to me. Oh, so guess what the big girl has learned to do?!?! CRY not exactly like “normal” babies but she defiantly has her way of telling us that she is not a happy camper. It about the cutest thing I’ve ever seen with her little lip quivering and all. Well as the cute little pig from the looney tunes says “That’s all folks” until next time my beautiful readers. Much love to you all!

P.S. I completely totaled my car the other day so please send me some strength and I guess some good karma since I obviously need it. Hope to find another car as quickly as possible…
