The year for 2009 was pretty slow appointment wise. No more than 2-3 appointments relating to her back. Unfortunately we have misplaced a few of these photos, but they are relatively the same. Minor increases in her spine curvature, but nothing to be to concerned about.
The doctors still want to wait at least until the age of 3-4 before her surgery, she is still to little. For a rough idea at 3 years old, most children turning two are bigger than she is.
During 2009 she really gained a personality. She started fighting back against her sister Hailey. She started joking around more. She thinks she is funny. She can dish it out but has yet to learn to take it. She will sit there and hug her mommy and then look at me and say "I love my mommy" then I will ask her "What about daddy?" and she will just say "Mommy" back to me until I go and tickle her. Again, she has really come into her own in 2009.
All-in-all she is a normal little girl. Despite the hole in her rib cage, the twisted back, fused vertebrae, and missing shoulder blade. Nothing seems to be bothering her.
