![]() Annabel - born 2006
That's the medical blurb. And there have been months of medical care and intervention in between. The crazy days of 14 feeds a day, the NG tubes, the moderate tricuspid valve leak, the neurotic obsession with weight gain. But, we've come a long way. Annabel is a funny, feisty, beautiful little girl with an infectious naughty laugh who brightens up every moment. She has more energy than the rest of us, and is clearly a thrill seeker. Dog rides, sleigh rides, trips to New York City's Museum of Modern Art, speedy negotiations of our hastily baby-proofed house. It's all under her control and we're in the throws of all those developmental milestones we've been eagerly awaiting. Annabel quickly picked up the nickname "Superbaby" along the way - it suits this little ball of energy and we remain in awe of her fighting spirit. Simply put, she re-focused, re-organized and re-prioritized every facet of our lives and, in turn, she is everything we could have ever asked for.
