Hope's Doctor's Appointment



Yesterday Hope went to see Dr. Henderson for her two month check-up. Everything went really well. She is now very close to the 9lb. mark, and will probably pass 9lbs. within the next couple of days. Based on her date of birth, she is in the 5th percentile for both height and weight. Dr. Henderson was very pleased with her progress, and said that he thought she looked great. Hope received four shots at her appointment. She didn't really care for the shots when they were being administered, but she seemed to recover from them quickly. She will go back to the doctor in May for a four month check-up. At that time Doctor Henderson said that if she continues to be doing as well as she is now, he would feel good about Hope being able to start going places and meeting new people. It will be such a blessing for our family to be able to go places as a family of five.

Camden has now been to school five times. He loves it! The first week everything revolved around Clifford and this past week it was Dr. Seuss. He is enjoying his teachers, time spent playing, music and time in his "gym". On Wednesday of next week he has his first field trip. He gets to go swimming at mom and dad's school. He can't wait. He definitely thinks he is a big kid now. He even has homework to do this weekend which he is excited about. I only hope that he will continue to be excited about homework when he is in middle school (probably not!).

Ryann is finally healthy. She missed four days of school last week because of the flu. Soccer season should be starting within a few weeks, and she is excited to be playing again. She continues to be the best big sister to Camden and Hope, and we continue to be very proud of her.

Camden how exciting that you are going to go on a field trip and swim at Mon and Dad's school. You will have a great time. We can't wait to hear all about your school when we get home.
Ryann we are so glad that you are finally over the flu. That is not any fun being sick. We know you are a great big sister and you should be very proud of yourself as we are proud of you also.
