My girls!

My girls! I still love saying that!

Hannah is 3 months old already!!!! She has been doing really well. She seems to have recovered from the virus she had and with some diet restrictions on my part her tummy seems to be doing a lot better. She is a great nurser and an even better sleeper! She takes a lot of 'cat' naps during the day - but she sleeps through the night (I am almost afraid to say this out loud) so we are not complaining. This week we even moved her into her crib, and she is doing great! Abby loves having her in the room with her, and is always really quiet when she wakes up so she doesn't wake up Hannah. She still doesn't love her carseat but she has been doing a lot better since she figured out how to suck her thumb while laying on her back in her car seat!

Abby is 2 1/2 and doing great! She loves reading books, and playing with her friends. Her favorite days are the days we watch her cousin Keeley, they have a blast playing together. She loves all things princess, and dressing up - but also likes to play in the dirt and get dirty. she is my 'busy' little girl, and I love it!

Fun Weekend so far!

This weekend has been a busy one so far - and lots of fun!

Friday night Daddy and Abby went to the Skyforce game together. Dakota Dads (www.dakotadads.com) put together this events for Dad's to take their kids to the game! Dave took his kids, Abby's friend Audrey and her Dad went and Abby and Todd! Everyone came over to our house for pizza first (thanks Mom!) than the guys and the kids where off. Abby had so much fun! She ate popcorn and danced to the music, and talked a lot about the big 'bear' (I am assuming it's the mascot..I think it's a wolf though...lol) They had a great time.

Saturday morning when Abby woke up I asked her what she wanted to today. Her first response was "play with Grandma Cheryl!" So, I called up my Mom and told her we where going to visit. Hannah, Abby and I loaded up and hit the road. We went to lunch at the fun coffee shop in Flandreau, we played outside, and Grandma and Abby made brownies. Hannah even had a great day, she was giggling away playing pat-a-cake with Grandma, it was so cute! I love spending time at Mom and Dave's, I get spoiled, and they cook yummy food and I don't have to do any of the work!

Good News!

I just received the phone call from Dr. McKercher regarding Hannah's CT scan.
The results are good!!! There is no sign of craniosynostosis!
She does have a smaller soft spot that we will need to monitor, but as long as her head keeps growing ok (like it has) we have nothing to worry about!
Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers!!! It's been a rough few weeks!!

new chair and new bike!

Daddy spent some time putting together stuff in the garage today! I had got the rocking chair brand new (in the box) at a rummage before Abby was born, and it's the perfect size for her right now, she immediately brought it in her room and started reading books in it.

The princess bike below she got for a Christmas gift from her cousins. It has finally been warm enough to play outside and use her bike! She loved it. She needs to grow just one more inch or so to reach the pedals, but she loves it.

So nice outside!!!!

Saturday it was so nice outside, we spent almost the whole day outside! Abby had the most fun at the park! She could swing all day long. Hannah loves being outside also, the fresh air almost always puts her to sleep.

Just reading...

Hannah does really well with tummy time. Abby didn't like tummy time much when she was little, but Hannah really enjoys it! She was having a good time reading her little book, and it looked so cute of course I had to take a picture! She started rolling from her tummy to her back this week also, so when she gets tired of her tummy, she just rolls over and starts sucking her thumb!

Fun with friends!

Thursday night was a GREAT night! Daddy had to work late Thursday night, so to keep us company Tiffani and Kairi came over to visit. We had lots of fun - We ate pizza, played, and the girls even tooks a bubble bath together! After they left, Abby curled up next to me and watched Barney on her little DVD player while I watched Grey's Anatomy. It was a great night!

Taking comfort....

A special thank you to all of our friends and family as they not only pray for us this week but also spend time with us distracting us until Hannah's CT Scan on Monday! As we have been talking about it we have heard several stories and talked to people who have been where we are! It seems this is a lot more common than we thought! We are taking comfort in the fact that a lot of people we talk to have little ones who have been tested, and did not have it!! The doctors just have to make sure! Thanks again for all your prayers, we feel confident that on Monday we will find out everything is ok!!
