My Mommy's dear friend just had a sweet baby girl. Her name is Lynlee and she is so little compared to me. I didn't know what to think when Mommy was holding her!I gave her a sweet kiss!

More Snow


Much to our enjoyment, we had yet another snow day from school! Daddy had to go to work that day, so it was just Mommy and me. We built this snowman! I love the snow and would stay out in it all day if Mommy would let me. My hands were numb, but I didn't care!

SORRY!!!

Well, Mommy has not done too hot a job keeping my blog up to date! Huh?! We are on Spring BReak this week so it will be all updated!!
I can't keep my loyal fans waiting...now can I?!

My favorite part was eating the snow! Yum, yum!

Something to look forward to....

A note from my Mommy:

As you all who follow the blog or our dear family who have been on this journey with us know, Nola's first shunt placement was at 4 days old, then shunt revision at 10 months old, then second shunt revision at 20 months. I am sure you can see the pattern.... we seem to have a revision every 10 months. So I am holding my breath! We have been 7 months since the last revision and her last CT showed 99% brain. Everything is going great in terms of the hydrocephalus journey. I guess I am posting this to say- I have 3 more months to hold my breath and we will have beaten the every 10 month pattern!
If we make it without a revision for a year, get your party hats ready because we will have a Revision Free for a Year party!!!
