Week 1

I've been enjoying my first week off. So far, I've accomplished 3 things on my to do list.

Catch up on laundry and dishes
Turn in credential to the D.O.
Meet with Century 21 and start house hunting

Other than that Tim and I have enjoyed being able to spend time with each other, for once, without having to meet and greet and be out the door, and of course, spending time with our wonderful daughter, who is nearly 8 months old now.

Recently, she's been having trouble with bouts of vomitting, so on July 14th, she will have to have an Upper GI done. As far as I've been able to understand, it isn't a painful procedure. It'll allow the doctor to see if her internal organs (specifically the esophagus, stomach, and upper intestine) have developed properly. Other than that, Natty is as happy as can be. She is truly a bless to us. We often wonder what we could have done to deserve such a wonderful daughter, but then I realize, of course! We did nothing! God choose to entrust her to us as this miraculous, wonderful gift. I am thankful every morning, when I see her little head pop up through the railsof her crib. I am thankful for the life that's in her, for her beating heart, and for each breath she takes. I'm thankful for her 3 teeth. I'm thankful for her beautiful voice that says "Ma-Ma." I'm thankful for her perfect ten fingers and toes, and how she waves to us.
