It has been quite the week with a lot going on. We have been so busy trying to get things ready to move, packing enough clothes for about a month, and getting doctor appointments in.
Trinity is doing really good! She had her 6 month appointment today, which was about 2 weeks overdue, but we couldn't do it until she healed up from the surgery. He was very pleased with how Trinity looked and was growing. She weighs 16lbs 14oz and is 24in long. She seems to be a little shorter then most kids at her age, but they said it was pretty common with spina bifida. On Thursday we go to see Dr. Gilmer for her checkup. Her incision is healing really good and she has been holding her head up more and doing really good with her upper body strength. We also started feeding her some solids. She doesn't mind it, but she only eats about a 1/4 of it and then decides that is enough. Hopefully over time she will develop more of an appetite for it.
On Saturday Shannon and I enjoyed our 5 year anniversary. We had a great day and evening! My mom has been here and watched the girls for us so we could go spend the evening together, something we don't get to do very often. We have been very blessed over the past 5 years with a wonderful marriage and two beautiful girls (what more could you ask for). As we continue to go through life Shannon and I vow to eachother that we will do it hand in hand with God as our guide.
So with two final words as we head towards Minnesota, "GO VIKINGS!!"
