So in August 2013 Adley had palate repair! Everything turned out great! It was an adjustment getting back to a good routine and sleep schedule but it finally happened! We also had issue adjusting to food. Adley never had food before palate repair. She hated everything I gave her and would cry hysterically! So yes your kids can survive until 1 without baby food. It was a slow but steady pace getting her adjusted to different textures and she still isn't a big fan of everything. She is kind of trying different things she just has to do it in her own time.
September 2013 Adley turned one! Yeah! We had so much fun! She had a Minnie Mouse Party! My Sister (the artistic one) helped me decorate… It was a lot of fun. We had a waterside the kids loved it! It was definitely a big event! I will add photos in at the end!
At the end of the year we also had some fun things happen to us to! Thanks to another Cleft Family who has helped raised so much awareness for kids like Adley and their son Keane! We are so blessed to have met this family and been involved in helping raise awareness with them. The Myers family has definitely been a blessing for this Cleft Community! They so sweetly mentioned Adley in an ESPN article! (Already printed and in her baby book! WINK!) Which is just Cool and we were featured with them on the Today show! Which is so cool too!

Thank you so so much Myers family! Chris, Jenny, Makenna, Calin, and Keane! What a blessing y'all are! The lord knew what he was doing when he made y'all apart of our Cleft Family!
Now to end the year!
Adley has done great we are doing speech therapy twice a month and she can sign almost 15 signs as well as say about 7 words! We had an amazing Christmas! Adley got a baby grand piano from her Uncle and Aunt and she loves it! I will see if I can upload a video of her playing it!
Ready for exciting things in 2014 and more Blogging!
