"May God bless you and keep you always, may your wishes all come true, may you always do for others, and let others do for you. May you build a ladder to the stars and climb on every rung. May you stay forever young.
May you grow up to be righteous, may you grow up to be true, may you always know the truth, and see the lights surrounding you. May you always be courageous, stand upright and be strong, may you stay forever young.
May your hands always be busy, may your feet always be swift, may you have a strong foundation when the winds of changes shift. May your heart always be joyful and may your song always be sung. May you stay forever young." -Bob Dylan


"Not talking about a year, no not three or four. I don't want that kind of forever in my life anymore. Forever always seems to be around when it begins, but forever never seems to be around when it end. So give me your forever, please your forever. Not a day less will do from you.
People spend so much time every single day runnin' 'round all over town givin' their forever away. But no not me, I won't let my forever roam and now I hope I can find my forever a home. So give me your forever, please your forever. Not a day less will do from you.
Like a handless clock with numbers, an infinite of time. No not the forever found only in the mind. Forever always seems to be around when things begin, but forever never seems to be around when things end. So give me your forever, please your forever. Not a day less will do from you." - Ben Harper

9 Month Appointment


Elsa had her 9 month appointment today. I really lover her doctor. What a blessing.

She didn't have to get any shots today, which was nice. The doctor also said she was right where she wants her to be.

She's 17 lbs 12 1/4 oz (25th %)
28 inches long (58th %)
and her head is 17 in around (23rd %)
















She's eating 3 meals a day and snacking in between lunch and dinner, and still breast-feeding 4 or 5 times a day. She continues to be so easy and we have more and more fun together every day. She is so happy. She is ticklish on her neck and arm pits and giggles so much. I have yet to find something she won't eat. She doesn't like the word "no" (surprise surprise) and continues to try and play with cords, blinds, the computer, shoes, anything in the bathroom (yuck). She loves bath time! After we eat dinner, Shane goes to her bathroom to fill the bath and she darts over there. So cute. She also darts to the door in the evenings when Shane gets home from work. Melts. Our. Hearts. She climbs on anything she can. She's found the buttons on all of her toys and is very proud of herself when she pushes them. She loves her books, especially her dog book (ut-oh). She's a dare devil, which inevitably leads to bruises, bumps, and blood blisters, and surprisingly not too many tears. This morning she woke up with a snotty nose, but the doctor said she has 2 more teeth coming in up top and most likely the snot is in relation to that. She is a boogery mess.

Since breast-feeding has slowed down, I've had to pick up my running, so we run 4 miles a day now, which we don't mind considering the weather has been amazing. AND the geese haven't bothered us since I last wrote, thank goodness.





























Alright, that's it for now!
