2 year well visit

Today was Haleigh's 2 year well visit.  She is now 14 lbs 3 oz and is 27 inches long.  She is still in the << 3 percentile but any progress is progress.  Dr. Chaney was very happy with her progress.  When she was evaluated, her social and cognitive level is her highest at a 18-20 month level.  Her speech is a 12-15 month level, and her motor development is about a 15-18 month level.  She is still very behind but she is always improving.  They will not worry until she stops making advances.  
The best part of the news is that we can start to transition her into the toddler room at daycare.  We will talk to the director and see if they will do a slow transition.  Maybe a few hours a day until they get her up to a full day.  The toddlers are still big compared to her so as much as I want her to move, i also want her to be safe.

Happy Birthday Baby Girl

Today is Haleigh's second birthday, and what a bitter sweet day it was.  I can hardly believe she turned 2.  I am super proud to have her as my daughter and honored that God trusted us to look out for her.  I was a little bummed that i had to work today but she got to spend her day with her daycare friends.  I went over after work to join her and her friends for a small party.  I took cupcakes to celebrate.  
When we got home Daddy made her a special family dinner.  We all ate together (which is hard to do because of Daddy's job).  She went for a quad ride with Daddy.  OMGosh she loves her quad.  She just finished up opening 1 present (her party is Saturday) and we had a chocolate chip ice cream sandwich with 2 candles for her.  
It was a hard day knowing that we couldn't spend it with family.  Not only the ones in Pittsburgh, but also the ones that we have lost.  
I hope she feels special today.  We love you so much Haleigh!  WE are so proud of you!  xoxo

And it starts!!

So here we are.  It is September 18th(not even officially fall) and Haleigh is getting sick.  She started getting congested this past week so we got out the nebulizer and started her albuterol treatments.  Today she is getting worse, so now we are starting the treatment plan from the immunologist.  We started her on an inhaler.  She will use it 2x/day for 10 days.  If she doesn't get better we will call the doctor and get her antibiotic increased.  She is still taking her daily antibiotic which is supposed to help keep infection from starting but it is not enough to get rid of it if she gets one.  Fingers crossed that she doesn't have to see a doctor.  I really hope this treatment plan works.  

Back Home Birthday Party!!

Can you believe she is going to be 2 at the end of the month?? YIKES!  We went back home to B-town to celebrate with our family.  She had an absolute blast!  We would all like to thank everyone who came out to celebrate her life with us.  It was so great to see family!  
She got to spend friday with her cousin Jessica.  They are 6 months apart in age.  They had such a good time playing with Aunt Corrina!
Josh and I are so happy that she stayed healthy all weekend.  I guess the plan is working! I have attached some pics for you to enjoy!
