Happy 6 Month Birthday Malibu

6 months ago we help this perfect sweet baby girl in our arms for the first time. 2 months later our lives were shattered, and for 4 months Mallory has fought like HELL. We have had some pretty tough days and we still will in the next coming months but this little girl was worth everyone of those.

Today we CELEBRATE!

Mal has had:

2 open abdominal surgeries
3 broviac placements
4 rounds of chemo (about to start her 5th)
6 different chemo drugs
5 emergency room trips
29 dressing changes
1 bone marrow biopsy
3 CT scans
1 MIBG scan
7 blood transfusions
2 platelet transfusions
She lost all of her hair
She has been on 5-8 medications daily for 4 months now
She has had her blood drawn over 20 different times.
She has had numerous IV'S
She's had her blood pressure, pulse, and tempature every 4 hours or more when we're in the hospital.
We have spent 2 months in the hospital over the last 4 months.

But above all, through all of this, she SMILED every single day she endured all of this.

I know we still have to fight to get her into remission, but she is a teeny tiny little FIGHTER and I know she can do it. I am praying everyday that we continue in the right direction that she will live to be 100 someday.  But for now we CELEBRATE 6 months, 6 months of having one of the bravest, most incredible kids I know.

We love you MISS MALLORY! HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY 6 MONTHS PEANUT!
