So first, check out that bruise on her forehead. She took a dive into the steps last weekend and she's still healing from that one. This kid is full on toddler. She cruises around the house like she owns the place, and does whatever she puts her mind to.

Yesterday Jenn and I took her to her 5th laser treatment. She did incredibly well, and even the doctors were praising how well she handled the treatment. She was as usual, super pissed that they were holding her down. They wrap her up in a sheet to help keep her still, then put gauss over her eyes for protection. Once they started in the with laser (all 20 seconds worth of it), she was quiet and still, which is awesome. As soon as they were done, she sat up, and came right to Jenn and I. Within a minute or two, she was back to her usual smiling self. She's awesome.

I asked the doctor about her progress and she said she felt Abbi was having moderate success. Based on her current progress, she figures Abbi will need about 11 or 12 treatments to have significant reduction. However, that doesn't mean it won't be more, and of course it could be less (however, I highly doubt that to be the case). So if it is 12, we're almost half way there. Abbi will have her last treatment of 2010 on November 11 and then she can heal up for the holidays!

  1. Abbi is a special little girl. She looks so cute sitting like that. I am also glad she did well with the treatment.

  2. You think she looks cute. We're pretty sure she was pooping at this point.
