Stall tactics

Shaylah has learned to art of stalling. She has discovered that yelling "potty" will get her out of going to bed for an extra few minutes. She has also been hearding yelling "kiss", "water", "book" and "stuck", all of which get some extra parent time. It has been very hard on her the past week because she has not seen her parents nearly as much as she would like.

Grandma

Once again we have come to another significant date in our journey of life without Grandma Marlyn. Today is her birthday and it is yet another day that we wish we could celebrate with her. Thoughts of her still bring many tears, not just because we are sad that she is gone, but because we remember the many wonderful moments that occurred while she was still with us. We will always love her and wish that life was different.

"No, Shaylah's hand!"


Shaylah is into the stage where she likes to do everything herself, including holding her own hand for help. It makes going up the stairs very difficult, but she does quite well walking down the hallway in the hospital.

Trick or Treat



Shaylah had so much fun handing out candy this year. She would eagerly watch for the next group of kids to arrive, grab some candy and then run to give it to them. It was quite fun to watch her.
