See that SMILE!!!!! We have waited so long to see Norah express happiness, and it totally made our morning to hear her wake up on her own (without crying) and then have such a fun-loving morning!! We saw our (wonderful) pediatrician this morning and Norah had a good check-up. We will be having further medical testing in the near future, but for now will work on helping her gain some weight (can you believe Norah and Naomi are only 3 1/2 months apart??). She only cried a little and was waving and giving high fives as we were checking out - she has turned a corner!!
Today while I only had Norah, I ran a few errands and she rode in a stroller and a shopping cart both for the first time and never fussed a bit! She laughed in the cart, loving her independence yet being able to see me at the same time :)
The girls are both napping and Nate is at school. I am appreciating some quiet time and the ability to get some things done. Just had to take a moment and share such positive words and these priceless pictures I have been DYING to take!!!! (you know, the ones where all the children are happy at one time)
We are so thankful for all the prayers and words of encouragement. This has been a long journey - hard at times and joyous at others. Thank you for following alongside and being there with us.
