Ally is Off Oxygen During the Day!

Yes the day has finally come where Ally no longer needs oxygen during the day. The doctor said we could take her off for the day on Friday last week. I am so grateful. She has been doing very well without it and her stats haven't been under 90 since she has been off it. She also can now have fruit baby food and no longer has to take her prevacid (thank goodness. The Prevacid was $65 per month). She might not entirely be off it but now she will be able to take the cheeper stuff. It is so nice not to have to carry her portable oxygen around anymore. Lets just hope that he doesn't have to go back on it.

Baby Food Yum!

Ally is finally able to have baby food. Yay. She really likes to eat Sweet Potato's, Mush, and Carrots. She is not a fan of the green foods such as Green beans, and Peas. My mom got her Bumbo chair so that she doesn't cough while she eats. It also is to help her torso get stronger. Yep she love to eat. Actually she was quiet smart the first time trying it. She opened her mouth. I think she learned it from us because she watches us eat all the time. She is so Smart.

It's Officially Winter!

Ally got to ware her new coat the other day that my mom and dad got her in Vienna. She looked so cute but she didn't like it much. It reminds me of A Christmas Story. "I can't put my arms down!" She is so cute.

Josh the College Graduate!

Josh finished his last college class on October 28, 2009.  He is officially a College Graduate and received his Diploma yesterday in the mail.  I am so very proud of him.  It took 2 years, 3 months, no breaks, and a lot of work but he finally graduated. Yay!

The Bug Family Halloween 2009

This year we decided to dress Ally up as a Lady Bug. So I got the brilliant Idea that our family should be the bug family. So one day before Halloween I asked what kind of bug Josh wanted to be for Halloween. Jokingly he said that he wanted to be a Praying Mantis. He wasn't really serious but I thought he was. So I made him the Praying Mantis costume. My mom let me have all the foam and the costume total was only about $10 which if you ask me is pretty cheep for a Halloween costume. Once His was done I decided to be a butterfly. We had a great time at my parent's trunk- or- treat. Ii had a lot of fun making Josh's and my cousin Ben's Costumes. I will have to get Ben email me a picture of it. It was way cool. Anyway Ally didn't really like her costume that much. She hated that it was bulky and that the hood kept coming over her face. I think it was a Blast the we all had dressed up like Bugs. So fun. I hope we can do something like this next year.

Halloween Pictures are coming.

I know you all want to see pictures.  And I am sorry I haven't posted them yet.  My camera is on the frits so I had my dad take the pictures.  Yesterday I tried to download them but couldn't figure out how to plug his camera into the computer.  I will hopefully get them soon.  We have some way cute pictures of Ally's first Halloween.
