Where Have We Been?--Scroll Down for New Photos!!

Well, we are still here. Quilla had an "episode" last Wednesday that prompted the doctors to have her admitted to Children's Hospital about three and a half hours away. They ran a couple of neurological tests and the results were all normal. We are praising the Lord for that! The neurologists actually didn't think she had any problems but wanted to do what they could do rule out seizures. Apparently, you can never conclusively rule them out but based on her symptoms and the tests, we're pretty confident that she's having upper airway issues, not seizures.

With all the stress and worry that these episodes bring (even though she's only had five), it's been very draining on me. I've resolved to LIVE A NORMAL LIFE. I'm not going to hover around her, waiting to see if she's going to have one. Instead, we are going out and doing stuff, just like we would do if she'd never had any episodes. Since we got back from St Louis, she has been great. She is increasingly mobile (to Zeke's chagrin) and continues to gain weight. At last check, she was at 12 pounds, 7 ounces. She'll probably get weighed Thursday when she goes to the doctor for some vaccines. We're hoping for a big number!

Here are some fun photos from our lives recently:
