Easter and 14 Months old now

It's been a while since a post but work has been insane.

Cailyn and I went to the Poconos last weekend to see some family. Cailyn met 90 year old Aunt Dottie.


She also got some treats from the Easter Bunny.



Here's some video. Whenever you would call her pretty she would wiggle all around.




Yesterday was a long day. Cailyn went for her tests at Johns Hopkins. They were coordinating between three departments and one of the woman who set things up had left her job. We got three different arrival times. 8:15, 9:15 and 10:45. Figured we'd play it safe and be there for the earliest, so we left the house at 6:30. It really is an easier drive to Baltimore than DC during rush hour so that's a little insane. Ended up we didn't need to be there until 10:45, so lots of waiting around but we spent a lot of time with the geneticist. They took blood, urine, did a lumbar puncture and got spinal fluid and then did the MRI. She had to go under general anesthesia which sucked. They also didn't let me stay with her. They made her sleep with the gas and then I had to leave. It's the longest she's ever been without a family member or babysitter so that was a bit stressful. It will take approximately 2-3 days for the bloodwork but the neurotransmitter tests, which I believe is what the spinal fluid was for won't be done for 6 weeks. So we have another appointment set for June 8.
