Quiz night triumph!

Never shall I blog again about 3 nights sleep in a row!! Molars cutting through, a soya trial and general 'G-ness' has resulted in a fair few sleepless nights recently. 
However, I'm still riding high on the success of our first ever charity quiz night - £1070 and counting....
We have an enormous amount of gratitude for those of you who contributed, in whatever format. We were truly overwhelmed by the amount of people who showed us their support. You lovely lovely bunch!! The Turner Syndrome Society will be ecstatic with the funds and I can assure you 100% that it will be put to good use. 

In other news:

-G turned two! Where has the time gone? She had a superb day, was totally spoilt, and stuffed her face full of peppa pig cake. Daddy will need to up his game next year on the cake front....

- We're in the middle of an appointment frenzy at the moment, much to G's distress. The best news came from our endocrinologist who informed us that G's growth appears to have accelerated over the past 6 months. 7cm!! We know that this won't be the case for much longer, but the older she is before we start the daily ritual of hormone injections, the more we hope that she'll be able to comprehend it, and thus not fight it. 
Tuesday sees us back with the Gastro consultant and Dietician. Let's hope the Pedro Pony weeble we've bought will soften the blow for G.

-We've always known G is somewhat of a Jealous Josh, but the recent arrival  of babies in the Chapman family have demonstrated to us just how much G would not like a baby brother or sister just yet. Good job really! 

G is continuing to entertain us, keep us on our toes and talk the hind legs off a donkey. But above all, she continues to amaze us. Her memory, her speech; her affection; her stubbornness; her little obsessions (she's desperate to go to centre parcs); and her uniqueness. Totally adore our girl xxx
