Count Down

Only 4 more days and my baby will be 1.  Where has this year gone?  We have had so much going on with our precious baby and with her equally precious big sister:

• Zoey started pre-K
• Slightly premature birth of Riley
• A month in the NICU
• Surgery at 3-weeks old for a G-tube (I hate you G-tube, but love you too)
• Sent home with a hear condition and swallow issues
• Spent several weeks at the Children's Hospital with respiratory infections
• Zoey started playing soccer
• Rose Mary moved in to take care of Riley since day care was not an option for us
• Heart surgery on 2/25/2011 (yea!)
• Riley started speech therapy
• Riley started Physical therapy
• Riley started to "catch up" to her age - sitting up, babbling, etc
• Riley started eating some baby foods by mouth
• Zoey graduated pre-K (what a big girl she is!)
• Summer camp for Zoey
• Riley continues to progress with eating
• Zoey turns 5 years old and we have a fantastic Art Party
• Zoey starts Kindergarten at Ocee Elementary and my heart breaks a little at how big my girl is
• Riley is eating more & more by mouth
• We are told by the GI doctor that the G-tube will eventually come out, it's just a matter of time
• Party planning for Riley's big 1st birthday
