We had our 20 week ultrasound the other day. This is the big ultrasound where you find out the gender. However, we have decided to not find out quite yet. So our tech had us close our eyes while she went and figured out the gender and then we were able to watch the rest of the ultrasound. She printed the picture that says the gender on it and stuck it in an envelope and then we are going to have a fun gender reveal party with my whole family closer to Christmas. We're excited!!! But for now this envelope is taunting us on the fridge...ahhh!! :) What's your guess?? I'll be sure to share pics of our gender reveal party after we have it!
The baby looks great. Our tech did a very thorough ultrasound, knowing our history with Dylan. All looks well. It looks super cute (as cute as a baby can look on an ultrasound). :) See!!
From day one, we were smitten by your sweet spirit and tiny stature. You have blessed our lives in so many ways the last two years and we feel honored to call you son and brother.
Day of your birth...we fell in love with you immediately!
One year birthday!
Today - two years old!!
Thank you for bringing joy and happiness into our lives each day! We love you 'way, way more than you know'!
Dylan is a happy, smiley, easy going, energetic baby boy. We LOVE having him in our family! Dylan was born with a condition called Fibular Hemimelia and Congenital Short Femur. Like Nemo in Finding Nemo, Dylan was born with a "lucky" leg. It's been an emotional roller coaster, but we know without a doubt that Dylan will be JUST fine. All we need to do is "just keep swimming" through this journey we've been given. As a family we will get through this. Dylan...he will conquer this!
This is a blog following Dylan's leg journey. Dylan had a below knee boyd amputation in January 2012. We knew this was the best route to ensure that Dylan has a fulfilling, active, joyful life. Join us in this journey!
We hope to be able to connect with other families who are going through the same things as we are. Please feel free to contact us at dylanslegjourney@gmail.com
