Sleeping Bag Party

Little Miss Jodi got the greatest surprise from her cousin Emily! She is now the proud owner of a Disney Princess sleeping bag which she is so excited about. She wanted to get in it immediately though first putting it over her head because she'd never seen a sleeping bag and didn't know what to do! Her wonderful Baba decided on a "sleeping bag party" so we set up a sheet as a tent and they spent the night under there. Jodi had her flashlight for their campout and I could here the two of them laughing away under their tent. Pretty special!! Earlier that day, we had a great time swimming with her cousins and Baba taught her how to float. She is getting more comfortable in the water and loves the pool!

Jodi is also working on her fashion sense and we think she may have a future in fashion. (OK... maybe not but....) She came out wearing Baba's ties around her waist which looked really cute. She loves to put on her makeup that Aunt Betty gave her when Mama's getting ready. Quite the girly girl!!! We thank God that Jodi got a good report from her neurosurgeon. I think he's as pleased as we are with her progress because as he said, "I've never seen anything like her before and probably never will again!" We don't go back for another 6 months. Jodi is making some progress with her language though she gets frustrated sometimes. She definitely has her moments of pushing limits but still responds to us (which we pray continues!!!). She will often say, "Mama and Baba proud of Jodi Lang." We nod our heads and tell her how much we love her. Thank you for your continued love and support and God bless.
