Sneeze Time

 The herb garden I'm trying to start on my kitchen window sill. So far thyme and dill have come up but nothing else. :( The 80 + degree weather following right on the heels of the 20 degree weather has been a crazy shift. I enjoyed the warmer weather for about a day before spring time temperatures reminded me that warmer weather means allergy season. I have been wiped out with allergies since Saturday. It is awful. If I take a zyrtec once a day and then pop a benedryl once or twice a day I can make it, but I am also a Zombie. So then I have to weigh my options Drippy Nose/Itchy Eyes or Zombie and somehow being a Zombie, though not a desirable option, always ends up winning. I guess it's the least miserable of the two. All of us have been suffering from allergies. Last night we all ended up in bed by 9 in Benedryl induced comas. Fortunately we have Mighty Maddy to come save the day every once in a while!
 A friend at church made all the kids superhero outfits for Christmas. We were gone over Christmas so Maddy got hers last Sunday. She loves it! Yesterday we had to put on the superhero outfit and fly to the breakfast table before she would eat her breakfast.

Maybe Mighty Maddy can save the world from allergy season.

PS. I love seeing your pots on the windowsill. Can't wait for spring here, though I am sure Dad can wait. I love how MM can see out of only one eye with her mask on. hahahaha

Allergies sound so awful. The clear clean air out here would probably do you good. ;-)

Getaway to Ticks Bend....I Mean Beavers Bend State Park

 Back in April, we decided we needed to do a short family getaway after the semester was over. The last time we'd been on vacation just to vacation (not going to see family in CO) was when we went to San Antonio when Maddy was 3 months old. We found Beavers Bend State Park close to Broken Bow, OK and decided to go there. We booked a cabin in the state park and eagerly awaited the day we could take off for our getaway. We left on Sunday afternoon and stayed through Tuesday afternoon. It was short, but so fun and relaxing. We had no computer and no cell phones while we were up there. We just got to enjoy being around each other and the beautiful scenery.  We built a fire and roasted some marshmallows. Also popped some jiffy pop. Aaron had never done one of those before.  This is a 100 year old cabin they had at the visitor center. I like the mud chinking ( I think that's what it's called). A couple named Comma and Mabel lived in the cabin when the CCC was building t...

Another Sonogram

We went to the high risk pregnancy doc today for another sonogram. This time he could see all four chambers of the heart, the pulmonary valve, etc. In his words it looked "dramatically better". He feels there is still some slight compression on the heart and that we need to continue watching it. As of now he cannot see anything that is causing it and the MRI did not see anything either. He also felt that the hands were okay. They are not clenched fists at least as he first thought, meaning that the fingers aren't overlapping each other. Her hands are still in fists and she won't open them but he said he has had other babies that have not opened their fist in the sonogram but the hands have been normal at birth, so we still have a lot of hope for those little hands. He was able to get a better look at the face today, no cleft palate, so that is a huge blessing. The feet are still concerning. They are definitely clubbed but she is also not moving them. She is moving her...

More Miss Maddy pics

Here are some more pictures of Maddy. I know everyone is eager for pictures. We got to put her first little outfit on last night. She got out of the incubator bed and into a regular bassinet so she can now wear clothes and have her own blankies and stuff. It is great.
