Fun at Chaney's

18 Months!

We decided after a long week that we would skip the 18 month doctor visit until next week. However, we were able to take her 18 month photos. We did these pictures a bit more casual this time. Of course, at 18 months old she still seems to amuse us each day. She has learned many more animal sounds, everything is "no," and she loves to play "ou side." If the front door opens you better be ready to take her out. She is doing very well with her tubes. We were blessed to find a great ear specialist. We just pray that they continue to work and keep those ear monsters away.

We hope you enjoy the pictures!

Playing at Home

Ally and mommy are enjoying our time together at home this week. Mommy has cleaned house, cleaned out closets, and cooked yummy suppers. Ally is feeling pretty good. She has slept quite a bit today, but seems to be adjusting to the tubes great. We are looking forward to spending the rest of our time off with Daddy.

These pics are of Ally playing with mommy's keys in her pink car. We've had to bring it inside considering it got a bit colder today. Notice how Ally puts the keys in the gas tank. I think every child does that. It's a wonder that any of our children know how to drive. I guess they understand, find a hole, and stick the keys in. It was quite funny watching her play for over an hour trying to figure out the best place for her keys.

What A Day

Today started out pretty rough. Ally's tube surgery was done about 7:30 this morning. However, by 10:00 our sweet girl was back to herself. We are so very thankful for the strength of God. Mommy was pretty strong, but lost it when they took her away, that was very hard. All in all, these pictures were taken this evening, therefore, you can see that Miss Ally is being herself. Thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers, it was much appreciated. God is so good!

Surgery Time

Waiting before my surgery! Such a big girl!

Preparing For Tubes

Tomorrow morning Ally gets her tubes. Therefore, mommy read her a story tonight preparing both of them. A parent of one of my students was so sweet and offered me the book to read to Ally. Too sweet! We are suppose to be there at six and procedure done at 7:30. We will keep you posted!

Ally has powered donut on her face because we are loading her up on food.She can't eat or drink after midnight.
