Our Adventures

This is an online Journal about our family, especially our youngest daughter, Eva, aka Peanut.  She was born on June 22, 2010.  She was born 4 weeks early because of prenatal complications.  All seemed fine in the hospital since we were home in two days.  In December of 2010, she undergoed a double hernia procedue.  All was well.  Her growth was not as strong as our other daughters.  She seemed small and weak.  Not progressing as she should.  We then received assistance from First Steps - Great People and Staff - highly recommended.  The therapists did not think her hip sounded normal.  We went to get an x-ray and sure enough she had hip dysplasia.  On August first, she had her first full body cast and lasted for 14 weeks.  Now we are back on therapy and had more testing done due to her developmental delays.  After blood work, our daughter has been diagnosed with C17q21.31 microdeletion syndrome.
