Saturday, June 27, 2009

So I realize that we haven't updated the blog in about a month now, but things have been busy. I started back to work two days a week (same job at the hospital) and things haven't changed...I still don't like it! :) Too long, too hard, too many patients for a nurse with little patience . I'm reminded of what Cherith says that Danny tells her, "it's not called WORK for no reason." But Isabelle does so well with Johnathan when I am gone. And that is such a comfort to me. He gives her a bottle (in the same chair we nurse in, in the same position, every three hours-I made sure he understood to hold her close to his chest when he gives her the bottle so she feels comforted), bounces her to sleep, and takes her places for activity. She is doing something so adorable right now. She is laughing and smiling at herself in the mirror. It's so funny because right as she sees herself she gets this adorable smile and then starts to talk and then laugh at herself. It's so hilarious. The first day I worked I came home and started crying when I saw her. I miss her a lot when I am gone, but it's gotten a lot easier as she has gotten older. I don't worry as much, I guess. Anyways, we have some pictures we will upload soon. She is growing all the time!

Big Days Out


There was too much excitement for these girls. A big day - first to the coffee shop with all the cousins - then to the park; we need a nap.


























Cousins Izzy and Eden, looking very cute (as per usual) in their matching sleepers.













Another day, at the zoo, we see a baby monkey. He also wears a diaper, uses a pacifier, and has a teddy bear.














We got about halfway through the zoo before we needed a nap.
