London's First Birthday

January 13 was my nephew's first brthday. London looked cute as can be!!! There was a party for him at Peter Piper Pizza. It was my first time there and boy, did I have fun. Aunt Cindy couldn't get enough of him.
Ashton and his adorable sissy with her pretty pink balloon.
I loved the baby in the window.
London...not sure how to get the Prince crown on.
My cuz, Marissa thought I needed a little help. Aren't we cute??
Eatin' his first cake.
Ashton says, "Get in there".
I've got a little green around my mouth after a little taste.
I loved Skeeball...I was pretty good too!!
Crazy table?!?!?
Lisa was being silly with the balloons...she played with me alot...it was good to see her. Lisa is Jade's Mommy.
Opening his gifts. Cousins Seth, Zachary and Austin in the backgrouond.

My Left Foot




Okay, here's the deal. As most of you know, Mommy has been very unhappy with the orthopedic care I have been receiving. I have seen two docs in Phx but both thought I didn't need braces yet. (See July postings) Mommy, and most of my therapists, all agree that I should have had some type of bracing months ago. My left foot that has always turned up and out, but remained flexible, is now stiff in the ankle joint. This makes it very difficult for Mommy to do my stretches and range of motion excercises.

Instead of going to Phx again and being disappointed, (I don't think Mommy can handle that again) I have been approved to go to the Shriner's Children Hospital in Salt Lake City, UT. The SLC hosp specializes in orthopedic care and the doctor I am going to see is an Infantile Scoliosis Specialist. Although I had my detethering in Nov. and my spinal cord is free, my spine is still quite curved so Mommy is so thankful for this scoliosis specialist.

The Shriner's Hospitals are completely free!!! Completely!!! They are even going to pay for our transportation there. Once we are there, we are going to stay at the Ronald McDonald House. So, the next time you see a man with a funny, maroon hat (phez) on, tell them, "Thank you" and that you know someone special that they have helped. (Mommy's crying right now)
Here I am at the local Shrine club. Mommy, Daddy and I went there on Monday for tacos and to talk to Clint Stevens...he's the local President of the Shriner's Club. It was my first experience with a pool table...where did the ball go???? oh, wait, there it is!!

Baby Doll

When Jenni was here last week, we role-played with a baby doll...here I am giving it some medicine...something I am very familiar with. Roxy should love my precise technique.

This is Jenni and we were playing with the baby...check out this adorable video.

Feeding myself!!

I'm such a big girl now. I love mac n' cheese...what child doesn't?!?!? Check out my skills with the fork :-D

New Year's Eve

We decided to go over to Aunt Debbie/Uncle Duane's house for New Year's Eve. They weren't doing anything and neither were we. They were kind enough to make us some GREAT burgers for dinner.













I had a little fun with some glow sticks.
















Checkin' out Aunt Debbie's drawers...hmmm





Playing in the tunnel...Aunt Debbie was chasing me...hehe




Since I did not see the Reeds for Christmas, I got to open another present...it was a cool Winnie the Pooh phone...

This was my reaction. :-\ Actually I like it now...I found the Itsy-Bitsy Spider button and now the world is good.

Some random pics of me

Some of these pics were so cute, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to put them on my blog. In this first pic, I am eating a plastic fry...I won't eat a real fry, but boy, hand me one of these plastic suckers and I turn to mush. Hmmm.....???

Sprocket hitchin' a ride on the Sit'N Spin.
Reading like a good little girl...I LOVE BOOKS!!
Ever so cute in Daddy's Farmer Jon hat from Halloween 2007.
Mommy loves this profile shot of me...she loves the silhouette behind me and she loves my little button nose.



Mommy thinks I look just like her in this pic....
