Today Anabel took her first step. We had some friends over and they all cheered. She got excited and sat down. It was really cute. I hope to catch the next time on video.
She also fell asleep tonight by herself. Hooray!!! I laid her down and she stirred and cried briefly when I left the room but not long before she fell asleep. Now it’s my turn. Goodnight.

Mike is doing great. He has started rehab at Vanderbilt and plans to start slowly back to work next week. Mike is doing well but he has caught a cough from Courtney. They both sound aweful but so far it has not turned into anything too terrible besides being a little irritable. Thanks for your prayers and words of encouragement. Mike is taking the day to rest today. He did not sleep well as he woke a couple times with elevated PVC’s. He could feel his heart rate speeding up. After sitting up his heart settled down but then he was wide awake. Pray with me that his mind would be protected from worry and that he will rest and allow his heart and chest to heal. Pray that we girls will enable him to have some quiet time and space. We are having another good day.
Anabel has learned a new sound this past week. She is having fun with it and sometimes does it when we kiss her or blow her kisses. I think my Aunt Diane helped with the development of this new sound. Enjoy.

Mike just walked a mile at the YMCA. He said it was easier than helping Courtney get dressed this morning. We had Mexican for lunch. He is napping this afternoon. He is doing great. Today we were playing Monopoly as a family and Courtney said, “Mommy, can I see your moose?” I said, “What are you talking about, I don’t have a moose”. She said, “Yes, your moose right here on your side”. (Be sure to say your r’s like you are from Boston to get the full affect of her accent) I then figured out that she was talking about a mole. She knew that it was an animal name that started with m so she just moose. I have been giggling off and on all day about it. A couple of weeks ago, some friends were visiting from out of town. The husbands name is Guy. As we were leaving, I said, “Bye, Mr. Guy. Courtney can you tell Mr. Guy goodby?” Courtney said, “Bye, Mr. Dude”. She was close but didn’t understand that his name really is Guy. |
