Welcome to my blog!

Thank you for taking the time to stop by and visit! We hope to share with you our journey of raising a child with Achondroplasia, the most common type of dwarfism. If this is your first time here, please start by reading Caitlyn's Story. It will share the beginning of her life with you. Enjoy!

Visitors from San Diego

A few weekends ago my brother Todd, sister in law Erin and niece Riley came up for a visit.  Todd and Riley were up mid-June but it seems that I forgot to post a blog about that visit, so I’ll include it in this one. 
We sure miss being able to see Todd and his family.  We're looking forward to heading to San Diego for Christmas and spending a handful of days with them.
Hanna and Riley are just about 3 weeks apart in ago.  Last time they were here, Riley had recently started walking and Hanna was still crawling.

This visit was much different as both girls were walking and of course Caitlyn was hobbling.  Riley is super fast – almost runs rather than walks.  Here are some pictures from their most recent visit.

Maui x 11!!

I finally have finished all of my different posts about Maui.  Yes, I did it again and split up the posts.  I think most of you would rather take the time to read several shorter posts than than ONE LONG post!!  I’m one post shy of my 12 from Nashville. 
We had a blast and hope to return soon!  The weather was wonderful as it always it – mid 80’s everyday and getting down to the low 70’s at night.  The humidity was similar to Nashville, but in Maui, we were either at the pool or the beach and there was a breeze. 
Hope you enjoy our adventures!

Maui – My Girls

I simply love these two!
