Where has the year gone!!

Wow! I can not believe that it is already November!! Thanksgiving is just around the corner and so is Tyler's first birthday and then Christmas after that . . .

I am sorry that I have not been updating the blog much, I feel like life has been a lot of routine things with out a lot of new (so I don't think about updating). I will try to do better here after! :)

Torah standing up!!

Torah has recovered so well from her hip surgery and so many things have changed with her since then. She is starting to get a since of balance and today I noticed for the first time that she was sitting up on her own with only my hand on her back. YAY!!!! She still has a hard time keeping her head up for a long amount of time and I am not sure if that will ever change unless her low muscle tone improves. She also tries to pull herself up off the floor like she wants to sit up, but just does not have the strength to go all the way . . . but she sure tries! She is still not eating anything by mouth or really letting me brush her teeth, but we are going to Denver here in a few weeks to meet with the Oral Feeding clinic and also the dental clinic to see what and if anything can be done to help her.

I still think that she has small seizures almost on a daily basis but they never amount to anything except a build up of saliva. I was watching her while she slept a few nights ago and she just kept swallowing over and over again. She has not had what we call a "reflux" spell (which is probably a seizure) for awhile where she sleeps for 3-4 days . . . which is good news!

We are looking forward to our trip back to Kansas in December at which time we will be also celebrating Ty's 1st birthday (I cant believe my last baby is growing up so fast!!)
