While mommy was in the ICU

**These are chronologically backward, but I didn't have the energy to fix it. Sorry! :)**

Mommy and me shortly after she had that big ET tube removed. I missed reading books with mommy.

One of the best days for our family. I missed mommy and she missed me.

Hanging out with my pal, Carter. We have so much fun together.

He was a great friend when mommy was sick and daddy was with her.

Me and my favorite Auntie, Tracy. She read me books just like my mommy does.

In the ICU waiting room, getting ready to surprise mommy on Christmas day.

Christmas Day! And mommy got to hold me, kinda. She was pretty weak, so I just sat on her tummy and tried pulling out all her tubes.

There were lots of cameras and lots of tears. Even mommy's nurse and other ICU staff were crying. I just had fun being with mommy and looking at all her gizmos.

Me and Grammy on Christmas morning.

Me, Grammy, Papa and Uncle Ryan on Christmas morning. Daddy went to the hospital bright and early to be with mommy. I got to open presents with my cousins!

Me and daddy in the hospital cafeteria on Christmas Eve. A family dressed as the nativity passed out oranges to everyone there. Their daughter/mommy/wife was very sick ten years ago and survived against all odds and they do this every year.

Life is so much better with cousins.

They told me I was going to get to see my mom today. I am so excited!

Me and my best friend, Carter.

Me and Grammy. She says that I got her through some very hard days.

Happy Halloween....only a month late!

(we actually just took these today...had to do it before my costume didn't fit anymore.)

Two Months!

Photo session started with a smile!

Going strong...

Then this started happening....

Then a little of this....

Then this, and we were done for the day!

So we tried again the next day.

I was having fun.

I even laughed a little.


Then I started doing my Dr. Evil impression...

and I liked it so much, I just kept doing it...

I even did it when I washaving my diaper chaged.

You know what they say...dogs mouths are cleaner than humans, right?!?! :) Good thing I really like Roxy...

Little hoodlum.

All my clothes that I can't fit into anymore. Most of these I only wore once, a few I didn't wear at all! Hope I get a little sister some day that can use these too!

Right after I got my immunizations....I guess all those pokes makes a girl want to hang out in a sling. :)

Squishy, close and with my binkie, just the way I like it!

I love to lay on the ottoman and watch the ceiling fan.

I am so smiley, but it's hard to catch on film.

Mom thought it would be funny to put my pants on my head. Am I not the cutest little joker ever?!

Helping out with the laundry...look at my big hand!

Adopted!

I love this video and thought I would share it.
