Update

Just wanted to give an update. My grandmother is still in the hospital....they are not releasing her yet because she has a fever of 101.7. They probably will not release her until her fever comes down. She has an upper and lower respiratory infection, and they are supposed to be checking her kidney function one day this week. Please continue to keep her and my family in your prayers.

Also, Isabelle had her 6 month check up last week, and she weighs 17 lbs. 6 ounces! That is a far cry from the 6 lbs. 8 ounces she weighed when she was born! There is a new baby girl at the church where we go who is about the same size Isabelle was when she was born. I got to hold her one day, and I can hardly believe that Isabelle was ever that small! We bought her a new big girl car seat tonight at Target. It's one of those convertibles. Also I think she said "mama" today! She's been making a lot of different sounds lately, so it may have just been a coincidence, but to me, she said "mama"!

Yes, it goes by way too fast. A year from now she'll say a new word almost everyday, climb all over the place, and run away when you need to leave for church.

I'm sure Isabelle said "mama". Allyson said "mama" first, too. I thought it was too good to be true, but she did say it.

MISS YOU!

I am sorry your grandmother is so ill.

I am so proud of Isabelle. I can't wait to see how much she has grown.

A big girl car seat! How exciting! She'll just love being upright.

If Isabelle isn't saying Dada, then Ben is going to start putting subliminal messages in her sleepy time cd.

I'm sorry your grandmother is still sick.

Riley was walking a whole bunch when he was here. I swear he is the perfect baby, well....he does drool a lot.

Sorry to hear about you grandmother. I'm keeping your family in my prayers.

I picked up my new dog, Ben, this weekend. I was going to change his name but Nirav said we should keep his name the same even though someone else we know has the same name. :-P
