Bama BabyLegs

I don't really have too much new to report on. Isabelle and I are still trucking along waiting for the big day. I am starting to get more and more nervous as Friday nears but I just have to keep reminding myself how well things went last time and there is no reason it should not go the same way as long as everyone does their job. I guess that is the scary part. That you are handing your child over to people who by nature can make mistakes.

On a brighter note football season is almost here. Four days to be exact. To get ready for the season I bought these BabyLegs for Isabelle. If they get here in time I am going to take them somewhere to get monogrammed. I haven't decided if I should do "Go Bama," "Roll Tide," or "UA." Any suggestions? She will be wearing them all day Saturday. I am not sure how long we will be in the ICU but hopefully we will be in a room by 7pm Saturday night so we can watch the game.

I am also really excited about how well Isabelle has been doing in PT. She does not seem to have lost any strength at all. As a matter of fact she seems to have actually gained some strength. While we are certainly not enjoying the halo the extra weight has helped her to gain some muscle strength. When she scoots around she is basically dragging and extra five pounds around. Same as when we work on standing, she is lifting extra weight. By the time she gets the halo of she may just standing up and start running!

I guess that is all for now. I think I am going to do a picture post some time this week. That is of course only if I can remember to take some pictures!

  1. I think you should get it monogrammed to say "Roll Tide, Elephant."

  2. She is such a tough and strong little girl, God bless her heart. You both are in my thoughts, heart and prayers. Please let me know what you need cause I gotcha back. Love, Amy

    P.S. I think you should teach her a big fat "War Eagle" or a "Hottie Toddie"...but that's just my personal opinion... :)

  3. Those are so cute. She is so amazing. I agree with your sister about the 'Roll Tide, Elephant'. My co-workers are always excited to hear about her or see the new pics I get. Tell her Roll Tide for me.
