AnnaBella
Owasso, OK

I was born on November 1, 2007. My parents knew I had an omphalocele. They didn't know I had Down Syndrome. The doctors told my parents that I would be in the NICU for at least 6 months. By the fourth week I had all my tubes removed, was nursing, and going home! Now I'm sitting by myself, I can roll over and I'm trying really hard to crawl.  The sky is the limit for what I can achieve!  I love my mom, my dad, my three brothers, and solid food.   I am very proud of my family for supporting me.I 'm going to my first Buddy Walk this October in Tulsa, OK this year, and plan to attend many more in the years to come. I don't have any favorite memories but look forward to making some!

Says her dad: My daughter is an amazing gift from GOD. She is very strong and very motivated and I love her very much. I look forward to walking with her in Oct. and for many years to come. signed Dad
