Half Way Day



We are officially half way there!!! (barring some unforeseen event)!!!!  Here are a few great things from halfway day.

1. It was Saturday so Aaron and Tammy were around all day to entertain Maddy.

2. It was cold so we built a fire in the fire place.

3. A roly poly snuck inside on some of the wood and made Maddy's day. She would have played with it all day if we would have let her I think.

4. Maddy played with the dogs a little bit before supper. At one point she piped up and said, "Abbey is cute. Houdini is not cute." Aaron asked her if Houdini wasn't cute, what was he? Maddy said, "Houdini is...Houdini is very sweet." We'd beg to differ, but, hey, whatever.

5. We had the most incredible stuffed peppers for supper. Wish I could say they were all my creation, but Martha told me how to make them. Email me if you want the recipe. Even Tam, who doesn't really like stuffed peppers, said they were very good.

Maddy can always find delight in the simple things and in God's creation. SO glad you are the half-way mark.

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.
