Oh my goodness...

Yeah, yeah, I have not posted in forever. I have had good intentions, but life whisks me back to the reality of my world's routine. And I had a baby in July, so there you go- my official excuses!
I never officially mentioned that Eloisa was diagnosed with Infantile spasms back in December 2011. She kicked its ass with the help of some real hard-to-the-core medicine called Acthar. Twice daily injections for six weeks. She eventually stopped crying when she got her shots and it was just heartbreaking. But she bounced back quickly and ferociously. But wow, looking back at that little (ha) swollen face is incredible. The swelling was a side effect we knew she'd have, but in the throes of things, we didn't see it. I sure do now and I am so glad it is in the past.
Eloisa Jolene, full bloom, is an absolute pleasure, a wonderfully cliche joy to have around, and I am so proud she is mine.

Getting crazy with the exersaucer

A dear friend lent us an exersaucer and Eloisa has put it to good use. At the rate she is going, we may have to buy a new one to return because Eloisa goes so batty over it these days, she may bust a spring. Love that girl!

She'll be coming 'round the mountain

She's riding six white horses, wearing pink pajamas, and we're shouting hallelujah. Yes, Miss Weezy has come back to us and we absolutely couldn't be happier or more proud of what a brave little love she is. She has been chattering all day long for the past week and I got this yesterday. For the record, I HATE that my voice is on this video. I don't really sound like that!...Do I?!?!
