Now- Just Memories

I finished brinley's scrapbook before jace was born. Now, I am going back to do all the journaling. Because of this, I have reflected much on our precious little angel on her first year: average of 2 doctor visits a week, constant nurse and physical therapist visit's to our home, total of 5 weeks in hopital stays, poked and prodded by hundreds of specialist's, 5 months of a feeding tube down one nostril, 4 months of (the hideous) trumpet down the other nostril. 5 months of her parents pinning her down while she screams with pain as they switch tubing every week, being connected to 20 different wires all over her body while conducting a sleep test once a month, 2 months of oxygen, 8 months of tape covering her face (that poor little face) one 4 hour surgery, and 2 weeks of arms restraints. brinley has come a long way since she was born and she was such a trooper through all of it (which is why today she screams when we go to the doctor even if its not for her) She is one BIG daddy's girl and our little princess!

Sweet little girl. She is such a trooper, she barely ever complained (and neither did her parents)! She is so dang cute, Erin, just adorable!
