Abigail is three years old!

This week marked another remarkable milestone in Abby's life - she was three years old on Saturday. We celebrated the day with presents, cards, balloons and a family meal in the evening.

Abigail really has come such a long way since those very dark days in September 2003. Lately, she's been putting on weight again since moving to a new feed and we think her second front tooth has cut in the last few days. She's definitely getting bigger and heavier too, although there has been a minor downside just this week - she seems to have started suffering from nosebleeds for some inexplicable reason. We think it may be that Abigail has turned her head whilst in bed and momentarily buried her nose into the pillow, causing some sort of rupture. On the other hand it may be that she just suffers the occasional nosebleed like many other people! Aside from that and an annoying (for her and us) increase in secretions requiring suction, Abby is very well indeed.

And what's more, she's three years old!
