poop!

well, after a week with no poop, she finally pooped!! yippee, i've never been happier.  the last time she pooped was last saturday morning, and all week she had been eating well, really gassy, and not seeming uncomfortable, but no poop - what a mystery!  she finally pooped yesterday, what a relief!  and then, she pooped again today!

nursing is going well so far, and i have pumped a couple times too!  she is going to get her first bottle on saturday when i'm handing out diplomas at graduation and she is with auntie cindy.

today she got to meet her great grandma mary and her great uncle peter! we had lunch with them, grandma, nana, and bimpa - it was her first restaurant experience and she liked it, but let us know when it was time to go. :)

yesterday when we were at the store looking at cards, i picked up a "first" father's day card and wished i had to pick one out. i wish i could give my dad one too.  i plan to take djoe for a ride in the cherokee and tell her stories about her daddy and grandpa on father's day.

Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.

(Proverbs 22:6)

Pleasant words promote instruction.

(Proverbs 16:21)

i miss laughing with him.

if you have seen me lately, you may have noticed me not wearing my wedding ring - it is a little snug at the moment!  i am always so hot, and i don't want it to get stuck.

soon, she and i will laugh together.  for now, we stare at each other. 

i am in love again.
