Emmersyn got tubes in a little of 2 weeks ago and today she said her first sentence! Everyday we go get Teagan at preschool and every time we pull in I go "Teagan, where are you?". Today, Emmy goes "gigi (what Teagan sounds like when she says it) are you?". I was so excited!
I can not believe the progress she has made in such a short time. And I can't believe the doctor was so hesitant about getting them done. I'm glad I listened to my gut and got a second opinion!

Emmersyn surgery
Emmersyn had her second surgery on Wed November 27, 2013 which was also Brennen's birthday.
She has been going to an audiologist and ENT since October. They have determined she has no vibrations to her eardrums because of fluid in her ears and suggested going in draining the fluid out, and placing tubes in her ears. Not a huge surgery, but they had to put her to sleep to do it and I was nervous. She did great though. The procedure itself took about 15 minutes if that. The doctor was fantastic! He said her left ear would probably continue to drain for a few days because it had a TON of fluid in there. So far, she has taken everything in stride and hasn't had any issues! I am amazed everyday at her. She is definitely my brave girl. 2 surgeries and 2 car wrecks in less than a year for her and she acts like nothing has happened!

Brennen Michael is 1
I can't believe Brennen is already 1. Where has the year gone?!?! We have had many ups and downs this past year, but I can't imagine life or my family without Brennen in it! He is such a happy baby and LOVES his momma (which I love). Don't get me wrong, I like my kids to be independent, but at the end of the day if they want to snuggle up with me, I'll take it!
A few days before his birthday, he woke up from a nap collapsing. I thought perhaps his brain tumors were back and I freaked out. I had my mom come from work to look at him. Every time I sat him down, he would fall back. When he attempted to crawl, he would fall forward. I took him to the doctor right away. They said he had a severe ear infection in his left ear and put him on heavy duty antibiotics. He is still slightly fussier than normal, but doing well, and I breathed a sigh of relief.
On his actual birthday (the day before Thanksgiving), Emmersyn had surgery to put tubes in her ears and drain fluid out. Emmerysn and I were home about the time he woke up and I doubt he cared!
At 1 stats:
you weigh 26lbs 8oz. I will get your height tomorrow at the doctor, but I'm thinking you're a tall boy
you wear a size 4 diaper
you wear size 12 or 12-18mn clothes and jammies. Pants are usually 12 and onsies are 18mn
you LOVE food and eat about anything
you still take 2 naps a day and sleep about 1.5-2hrs per nap
you go to bed at 8-8:30 at night and sleep til 7 usually (still wake up once or twice though)
you are walking a few steps at a time
you HATE to wear shoes and socks and undresss in the car
you had so much hair we've cut and trimmed it a ton and it's still super thick
you LOVE your sisters and light up when they talk to you
you have 3 teeth in and one popping through
Brennen Michael: You have surprised mommy from the start and continue to surprise me everyday. I love you!
