Holiday Festivities

It has been a while since I have updated the blog so I need to recap what has been going on in our lives the past month or so. The new baby continues to grow and develop on schedule. We went to a doctor's appointment yesterday and heard the heartbeat. Mya went with us and she was very interested in hearing the heartbeat too. We are still hoping for a delivery date in early June. The Lovenox shots are going well too. Dan gives me my shot in the early morning when I am still half asleep and that has been the best approach ever! I barely feel it and then I roll back over and go to sleep again. I thank God every day for Dan's commitment and willingness to do 9 months worth of shots.

Mya is doing excellent. She is 13 months old now and communicating very well. Yesterday we asked her if she was ready to brush her teeth and she ran to the bathroom, opened her drawer, and handed us her toothbrush and the correct tube of toothpaste. Dan was stunned. It is amazing what she is learning on a daily basis. She is able to say "Dada," "Hi," "Mama," and she can shake her head "no" for things. She can also sign "more" and "milk." Pretty cool!

I titled this one "Holiday Festivities" because November and December seem to go by so quickly due to all the family get togethers. These months are full of holiday fun and fellowship. Even though it can get hectic sometimes we really appreciate all the family that we have close by to us. It is fun seeing everyone over the holidays. I've included some pics from our Thanksgiving get togethers. Hopefully soon we'll get a new camera since ours broke so I can take lots of pictures at Christmas time.
