Mommy's Little Helper

Hey everyone! I just wanted to leave you with a quick note and picture before we leave for our vacation in the morning. This is Maddy "helping" me with the laundry. Isn't she just the cutest thing you've ever seen?? Too bad she knows it!! ;)



We'll be leaving for the beach in the morning. Our plan is to let Maddy wake up on her own, then when she's ready for her nap, we'll get in the car, take Nash to the kennel, then get on the road. We should be there by the early afternoon that way. Maddy and I both have new bathing suits... and Maddy also has one of those shirts with the SPF 50 built in. I'm really worried about her getting a sunburn... seeing as how her genes have made her pretty opaque. LoL.

A couple of updates since my last blog:

We went and saw our friend Heather again last night. She said that yesterday was a good day for baby Isabella. The last time there was a drop in the heartrate was at 6 AM, and we were there until about 8 PM last night. If the good heartrate continues for another day or 2, they will move her to a different room where she is not monitored quite as frequently. Then, if all goes well there, they'll let her go home. She's not getting her hopes up, but at least there's mention of that!!

Also, Maddy's medicine seems to be helping. I think we may have found a solution!! :) I'm just thrilled that she's finally feeling a little better!!

Bryan and I have now done the Baptism classes at our church. The next step is for us to choose Godparents (any suggestions or volunteers?? HaHaHa) and choose a date. We know it's quite a haul for everyone, but once the date has been chosen, watch your mailbox for an invitation. We will certainly understand if it's not possible for you to attend. We'll be sure to take lots of pictures so you can feel like you're here!! :) We're pretty excited to be ready to move on to the next steps!! We plan to have the ceremony this summer sometime!!

Oh well... I better get some packing done if we really plan to leave in the morning!

Love you guys!

Have a GREAT week... I know we will!! :)
