I'm baaaaaack!

I've been feelin the pressure {cough, cough Whittington}, so I'm back.  Hopefully.  
I do use this as my "scrapbook" so to speak, and I like documenting the events in my kiddies life.


Since we last spoke, Reese turned 4 and life hasn't slowed down at all.  I finally got Jack in for his 2 year check-up where we learned he gained a whopping 4 pounds in 14 months.  #heavyweight

Anyways, last year I did an interview with Reese when she turned 3 and I'm back with the 4 year edition.

At the beginning of April, we {FINALLY} had our appointment with a neurologist at Children's Hospital in Birmingham.  It was a good appointment and it was nice to get some questions answered.  Our goal is to go 2 years seizure free.  Her last seizure was at Christmas, so that's the date we'll go with.  We've increased her medication and we all feel confident that her epilepsy will be easily treated!

4 seems so much bigger than 3.  She is learning to control her attitude and emotions.  She is the most social person I know.  She doesn't meet strangers and thinks everyone is her best friend.  She will be going to K4 next year 5 days a week, all day, which will be an adjustment, but honestly I think she's ready.  I can tell that she is a person who re-energizes from being around other people.  I know she will so enjoy being around her "best friends" everyday next year.


She made me a Mama 4 years ago and since the day she was born, she has humbled me and challenged me and made me happier than I ever thought I could be!
