Catching Up











Well this must be the week for all of us busy mommies to catch up on our blogs!! We have had a really busy 2 months..I cannot believe that was the last time that I updated Bailey's Blog. Bailey has had a lot of changes in her life in the past few months. Back in April she got tubes in her ears and tear duct probe. The tubes have been amazing, but we have still been having problems with her tear ducts. Last week she had her second surgery for her tear ducts. The doc did another probe, and then inserted tubes into her tear ducts. The tubes will stay in for about 6 months, and then will be surgically removed. The tubes are in placer to give the tear ducts something to grow around with the hopes that when they are removed her ducts will stay open....we wont know until a month or so after the tubes are removed if the procedure worked....so keep your fingers crossed.

On a more positive note Bailey is saying so many words!!! She is starting to string words together, and creating her own sentences some of which make sense and some of which dont. Today..she learned "ready, set, go!" Some of our favorites to hear her say are elephant "ele dent dent" and cow moooo! She is so funny!! She has certainly formed her personality, and I have to admit we have a strong willed child! She wants what she wants and is not afraid to tell you!

Bailey did see her 1st fireworks show on the 4th. Daddy bought a few fireworks that we put off in front of the house....she seemed to like them, and wanted to hold the sparklers......she didnt like when we told her no :)

Bailey got to meet her new friend Sophia this moth..they had a great time playing, riding in the wagon, and eating ice cream. She also got to play with her friend Alex.....they went to the zoo! Alex's mommy made them the cutest matching shirts. The girls had the best time looking at the birds and the pandas. I cannot explain how much fin it is to see two 1.5 year old completely excited by the animals....jumping up and down, talking to the animals...absolutely a pure joy to watch. Bailey also got to go to her friend Grant's 2nd birthday, and then play with him another day. It is amazing to see how they interact with each other. Daddy is a little worried though.....when Grant was ready to go home....Bailey kissed him good bye....uh oh!!

Bailey is also having so much fin at her school..she is still earning new things everyday..she has made some really good friends, and loves her teachers! She has been learning to say their names, and now has several of them down pat!

PS...No, Bailey did not blow the bubble...she took the bubble out of daddy's mouth and put it in hers..we just caught it at the right moment...too cute!!

Well..thats all for now....I'll try to write again soon!

Bailey is ABSOLUTELY adorable! I loved all the pictures and am so sorry to hear that you guys have been busy with so many surgeries. I will definitely pray that the tear duct tubes work. She's a doll. :o> ~Michele
