It seems like we have been going nonstop for a few weeks now.  All good stuff, but just nonstop.  We have been spending as much time out back and in the pool as weather allows.  Casey had a nasty ear infection last week so she had to resort to just putting her feet in, but …

We were just a few days past Casey’s birthday to fill up the pool.  We are all loving it.  Casey has gone out almost everyday for at least a little while.  Its still a little chilly so she is happier putting her feet in and sitting around the pool right now than actually swimming.  I …

Casey has had a fun week celebrating her 8th birthday.  On Wednesday she had to start her day with a trip to see a new specialist.  It was not the best way to start her birthday.  She let her nurse and I know that she had other plans.  After leaving there we had to get …

Casey had a fun and busy Saturday.  She started with an Easter egg hunt at the local accessible playground.  She missed it last year since she was in the hospital for her surgery.  She went the year before and had a great time.  It was pretty chilly and windy Saturday, but she wanted to go.  …

I can not tell you how often I fantasize about being able to put Casey to bed and then just going to bed myself.  Or being able to throw her into the car and head out to run errands with her in tow.  It seems like such simple things that so many people take for …

March flew by, I am not sure how that happened so fast.  Casey is doing okay.  She had a rough time in the middle of March with some respiratory stuff that led to having her on and off oxygen for a couple of weeks.  Nothing serious though, so we were able to avoid the hospital.  …

After a really long and hard winter Casey finally had a long over due good week.  She was up for playing with her toys, she worked hard for her teacher and therapists, she went to all of her scheduled appointments, and she finished up her week with a visit to the new aquarium.  She met …

The pool installation officially started on Monday of last week.  This part of Texas is known to have very rocky soils.  They got about a foot, maybe a little more, then hit rock.  For the past week it has been a lot of jack-hammering.  Casey is not a fan of the noise.  Her room is …

We have said it many times before, but for anyone new to the page, suction is something we rely on HEAVILY!!!  That being said, we have backups and backup backups, etc.  We have some that run on batteries to use when we are out of the house, or moving around the house, and then stationary …

This weather has taken its toll on just about everyone.  It finally caught up to Casey last week.  She started with an ear infection and has been having lots of respiratory issues.  No fever, and the stuff she is clearing is out is thick and tons of it, but it’s not the color we would …
