So, we recieved our pump and start up kit from Animas today.  They have been really nice to us thus far.  Since the OneTouch Ping doesn't come in purple, they included two free skins, one for the pump and one for the remote.  Now when Ali gets hooked up next Wednesday, it will be all purple.  They also included a super soft Waist It and a carb calculating book.

We had such a busy night that we didn't get to do much more than take it out of the box and turn it on, but we will do more playing between now and the 8th in between celebrating Ali's birday with a party on the 4th, the museum on the 5th and a dress up lunch with Mommy |on the 6th (her actual birthday).

It was fun to see both Alison and her baby sister Riley go "Ohhhhhh" when the display lit up!

Everything is starting to feel real now that the big box is in our kitchen and since Ali keeps asking to be hooked up right away.  There's no turning back now!
