Happy Desert Thanksgiving!


Happy Thanksgiving !!! Not a great pic of any of us but we have so few of the three of us, I had to post it. We have so much to be thankful for this year...obviously. We simply cannot believe how great Abby is doing.

Abby had her first Thanksgiving in the desert this year at Grandma and PopPop's house. Here is Abby with her cousins and Grandma...
It was nice and warm and she got to take her first dip in the cooled down hot tub (thanks Christy Zipf for the cute suit!) -- with a shirt on to cover her scar from the sun, of course!

Abby managed her first cold of her life this week .... so we're managing her stuffy nose with a humidifier and lots of salt water nose rinsing. It hasn't slowed down her eating -- just one more reason to not be sleeping through the night! Above all, we are so thankful to the Lord for His many, many blessings to us -- and all of our close family and friends top that list. We couldn't have gotten through the last 6 months without all of you! We have our next pediatrician visit on Friday so we'll have some more "news" (hopefully about discontinuing the iron!) then. And, with that, I guess we can now officially say, MERRY CHRISTMAS -- tis the season, right?

  3. I can't wait until you post about her sleeping through the night. You will enter into a whole new world. Let's hope that Friday says good bye iron and hello sleep. I love her big, curious, eyes!
