I call her lightning

Having a one year old is a totally new experience. I will refer to AB as lightning in this post because I swear someone has put some in her diaper since her birthday.
She is into everything which is what every mom of a preemie wants desperately.

This week has been pretty tame. We went for her one year check up on Tuesday. Lighting screamed bloody murder when the doctor held her down to check her but the minute she was in my arms she stopped. I love the drama! Unfortunately, the shots were no joke this time. Now that lighting is turning into a typical child (only going to the Dr for check ups or when she's sick) I found the shots to almost be unbearable. Up until this point I have had to be pretty calloused and wouldn't allow myself to get emotional. She pulled the no sound cry out on me; about did me in. Overall it's been a great week. We are getting ready for her small dinner party birthday on Saturday night. Derrick's mom and sister are flying in tonight. I'll post pictures of everything.
