11. We survived the year!!! We had tons of fun hanging out together at home. We made it through nights of no sleep and mastered caring for a trached baby!!!

10. Our kids grew up. Drake is now 99% potty trained and can talk up a storm. He surprises us every day with his smarts. Laynie can now sit, roll, back scoot, and stand with assistance. We no longer have a baby in our house. We have a little boy and a toddler girl!!!
08. Laynie got another couple of surgeries behind her. In July she had her soft palate repaired, choanal atresia repaired, and tubes in her ears. She also had a MRI of her ears which helped us to find out more about her hearing!!!
05. Little Laynie changed drastically in her physical appearance. We are very pleased with the results of her cleft lip and nose repair. Although, sometimes I miss that cute wide mouthed smile, I know that she will be much happier with the corrected lip. Personally, I think she is adorable either way!!!Before...

04. We enjoyed a few vacations!!! The first one was to Wolf Creek in June. We had a blast playing in the pool and hanging out!!! Drake entertained the entire pool with his bravery of going down the slide by himself.
Then, Trevor went to Lake Havasu. He had a great time!!!
In November, we survived our first plane ride with 2 kids and an endless supply of medical equipment. We had a wonderful time in California visiting my dad and family!!!
03. We moved into our new house the end of June. We really love it here!!!
02. We celebrated Drake's 3rd Birthday!!! He really owns my heart. He is so cute, funny, stubborn, and tender-hearted!!!
01. We celebrated Laynie's 1st Birthday!!! What a year she has had. She has changed us all in many ways and has led us down a path in life that was not expected. We have learned so much from this little girl and love her so much!!!
Our 2011 was fabulous. We are hoping that 2012 will bring us happiness and GOOD HEALTH!!!
