our story

We welcomed our second daughter Annabelle on February 18, 2012, a week before her due date. That same day, the pediatrician felt a click in her right hip ...

... it was never felt again. An x-ray the same day showed nothing, so we weren't too concerned. We had a follow-up ultrasound when she was 6 weeks old, and it showed that *BOTH* of her hips are dislocated. (a condition called Develomental Dysplasia of the Hip or DDH)

Spica roll

Yesterday Annabelle was turning herself pretty well both on her tummy and on her back.  I had thought that by the end of the 6 weeks she'd be rolling and/or crawling just based on how well she was rotating herself yesterday.
This morning, she rolled!  I saw her get some pretty good leverage at one point and thought she might do it, but didn't think it would be this soon!  I was elated.  This girl doesn't let anything hold her back!
