Our holidays this year went by very quickly! We got to visit with family and friends and even exchanged gifts...including the flu! Yep. Hannah had never gotten sick with the flu before, so this was a new experience...especially with the braces on. We decided it was safer and more comfortable for her to not wear them while sick...clean up would have been difficult. Funny thing though, she missed having them on! She asked for them even though she was still sick. Amazing. They have become a part of her. Don't get me wrong, she truly is excited for that hour in the evening she can run free! Progress appears to be at a standstill for the time being, but we are still hopeful it can be corrected by summer. Our next appointment with the orthopedic specialist is coming up in mid February so we will see what they have to say. Her left leg is still much worse than her right. They may suggest one brace to correct this, but we will have to keep praying and waiting. Patience has never been my strong point, but I am hopeful the Lord will take care of everything.
Now that Hannah is 27 months old, I want to start potty training. She is asking more and more to wear underwear or pull-ups vs. diapers so we are giving it a try. So far today, she was able to tell me twice that she had to poop and we made it to the potty!!! This is exciting. It is difficult for her to run with the braces so peeing on the potty has proven to be a struggle. I have changed 2 wet underwear today. Oh, well. We will see what happens. Having 1 child in diapers at a time would be great!!! Wish us luck. 102 days until Kasten #2 arrives!
