Sooooo long!

So here it is almost a year after my last post. So much has happened that I don't even know where to begin. I guess I will let the people who are not my facebook friends know that we had our baby girl. Nakota Myckell was born on July 2nd, weighing 7 pounds 11 ounces. After a little deliberation we have decided to let you all know that we used a sperm donor to get pregnant with her. They now test donors for SMA, so that is how we knew she wouldn't be affected. It is the best decision we have ever made. The reason we are telling the world this is to let SMA families know there are other alternatives. We love our little girl to pieces and there is nothing we wouldn't do for her. She is one million percent ours! We are an open book, if there are any SMA families out there who would like more info on how we got to where we are today, I would love to help.

Brynlee is doing amazing! The stuff that comes out of her mouth is hilarious. She keeps me laughing everyday. I'm not going to lie though, this three year old business is hard. She wants to do everything herself, lol! She has not made any significant change in function and her scoliosis hasn't changed in a year. We haven't had any hospital stays since April and hope to keep it that way. We just had pictures done by our friend Pete so I thought I would post them. I promise I am going to start posting more often!
