A year in review...

As 2014 closes out, the traditional year in review begins to hit social media.  I don't have a cookie cutter year to look back on; 2014 was one that was life changing for me.  Yes, CJ was born in 2013, but much of that time was spent sitting in warm, sunny Florida.  :)

January
Finally had the chance to settle in and find a groove in our new normal.  Luckily for me, someone slept through the night starting the second night out of the noisy NICU.

February

March

April
Surgery - CJ has his PEG tube replaced with a GJ button.  This was one of two surgeries this year that led to an almost instant response from CJ.  He was a different kid after this.  Guess I would be too if they took a plastic disk out of my stomach...

May
GJ replaced...that didn't last long!

June
Game changing surgery number 2.  The entire package of this surgery showed me how much trust I have in CJ's medical team and how amazing, especially, his ENT is.

Happy Birthday!  Time to dig into that cake!

December
Bedtime just got easier: No need for O2 at night and forget the need for the feeding tube too!
