Taking it one day at a time.

Mia is sleeping - it's been a few weeks since she's gone down at a normal time and slept through the night. Poor girl has been through so much, but she's so tough and brings us all so much joy and laughter still everyday, singing and dancing and talking all day. I just want to hug her and squeeze her, I love her so much.

She's on Nuvalog now in addition to the Lantis. If her blood sugar is above 200 before lunch and dinner, she gets between 1 to 2.5 units, as well as her regular insulin in the morning. It breaks our hearts to have to give the injections and prick her little fingers throughout the day. She hardly cries at all though. In fact, she puts up much more of a fight trying to brush her teeth. Hates it.

Her numbers are finally leveling. We didn't have to give the dinner Nuvalog today because she was well within range, so we all did a happy dance. Anyway, I should go to bed. I'm running on empty and probably not making a whole lotta sense.

Sweetie Pie.

See these pictures? That's the face of the sweetest, bravest, most wonderful little girl on the planet. She's adapting well to the changes in her life. Mia holds out her finger without a fuss for finger sticks, and hardly cries for her lovebug bites. She's too busy being a curious toddler to even notice what's going on. Her latest thing is singing. Check back soon, I'm going to post some videos of her singing along to some of her favorite tunes. It's hilarious. I love her so much.
