Lucky Anniek!!!

When I have my bowling league, my parents watch Anniek and take her to the library. The library had a contest for the kids and every time they read a book (or if they are too young to read a parent reads a book to them) they record it on the paper that the library gave them...and for each book they get a ticket for a draw to go see Disney On Ice!
The day after the draw was held I got a call saying that Anniek had WON 2 tickets to go see Disney On Ice: 100 Years of Magic at the John Labatt Center!!! So at the end of January we are going to be seeing Disney On Ice!!!

Swallow Study Repeated

After Weeks of going to the hospital 1-2 times a weeks with Anniek for "Lunch Dates" in the room where they do the swallow study to get her used to the room...and everything in it, then used to the chair, other people, the machine and everything that would happen during the swallow study Anniek had a repeat swallow study! It went really well...Anniek took a bit of ALL the food that was offered to her...and she PASSED that is right PASSED!!! Which is GREAT because now we do not have to worry about her "stealing" food from other kids in her class at lunch and stuff. We still have to work on liquids with her but she is not allowed to have pretty much ANY food that she wants...other then juicy fruits (because of the liquid when you bite into them). But solids is a HUGE step in the right direction for her!
Anniek is LOVING it being able to have what the other kids are having at the school now too!
