Don't Stop Believing

So it was today, 2 years ago, that we brought Nina home from the hospital. She was 3 1/2 months old and a little over 4 pounds. We had no idea what her future would look like and we never stopped believing.

Today she is 27 months old and is doing awesome! She is the light of our lives.

Over the past two years and especially in the past 6 weeks, we realize how precious life is. We realize that children should never be taken for granted and they are a gift.

We hope one day that we will be able to give Nina a sibling. We will never give up hope, and never stop believing.

How can we with a cool little daughter like Nina?

hmmmm what to say?

I have been meaning to put a new post out here for a few weeks, just really not feeling up to it.

So it's been a month since our baby died.
We are getting through it b/c we have to... some days are better than others and that sorta stuff. I really do not like when people ask me how I am doing...it's just like stirring the pot of shit that is my state of mind. But then when people do not bring it up, I wonder why not...it's just me...I want to control everything... what crap.

So Nina is doing great. Early Intervention wanted to close the book on her, but I told them that I would like the specialists to come out to check her out to make sure I am not missing any red flags.

She talks up a storm, knows her ABC's and can count to 11. She knows tons of animals and objects and characters and will point and say their names, however she really stinks at her colors. She can run, but not jump yep....She is not even 2 years adjusted.

I really think she is doing awesome, but who knows.

So next month we are having OT, Speech and PT come on out to check Nina.

So I guess all I want to talk about on here tonight.
