Loves:
minatures, princesses, M&M's on her ice cream, spending time with grandparents, jumping into big pools, making Grady laugh, time with cousins, baby animals, being a leader when she is in a very comfortable setting, holidays, being read to, playing pretend school, house, restaurant and library, long drives with the DVD player on, chocolate milk, surprises, vitamins, songs and music and zoos
Not so fond of:
arriving at unfamiliar places, Grady taking her toys, napping during naptime, any type of suspense in movies and t.v. shows

Layla still is a pretty good eater. She loves to snack and could graze all day long if we let her. She still sleeps pretty well too. Occasionally, she will wake up in the middle of the night but on a typical night she sleeps 12 hours (8-8). She takes a quiet time each day (reading and playing in her room) and sometimes naps too. She really does not like to sleep "when it is light outside" but sometimes she "just doesn't have the energy to play or read" so she ends up napping. The quotes are very common phrases from Layla.
Layla has had numerous doctor's appointments lately. Unfortunately, some abnormalities were found on her last EEG (administered in June) and the neurologist is concerned that her seizures are back. We go in for more thourough testing soon and find out what is going on with our little Layla. We are sad by the new findings and the fact that Layla still needs to be medicated for seizures. We hope we receive answers soon.
Layla started soccer this summer. She likes it and has proudly mastered the skill of trapping :) She is very fond of water breaks. Grady loves yelling for her while we watch from the sidelines. Layla is also getting into the Olympics trials. She is especially enamored with the gymnastics. Good thing, because we love the Olympics in this house! It is hard to believe that the last time we watched the summer Olympics she was a teeny baby.

Morning -
She looks SO happy playing soccer & playing in water :)
She is very lucky to have such wonderful parents who will do what's best for her by being in the medical " loop " for her well being.
Love,
Super AA
Hi Kristin - Long time no see. I have decided to no longer be just a blog stalker. I wanted to tell you how much I love to check in on your blog to see the latest adventures of Layla and Grady. I feel like I am keeping in touch with you - you just don't know it. I have also decided that I am going to hire you to help me with Nolan's high school graduation party (in only two years!). I love all the cute ideas you come up with for the birthday parties. I am sure you could figure out a way to adapt them to a grad party! I'd love to go lunch or dinner one day and catch up. Let's talk soon. Suz
