Getting Life Back to Normal????

Hello everyone! So sorry I haven't been the best at updating the blog lately. Let's see, since our last entry we have had Christmas, New Years, gone back to school, gone back to work, and started living our lives again. Lia's is continuing to do great. She's almost 6 months old and is still grinnin up a storm. She's got a lot to say...babbles quite a bit. (Wouldn't we really like to know what she's thinking?) It would probably go something like this..."Really, mommy, could you please stop worrying about how much I eat with each bottle? I feel great, just look at my smiling face. My big brothers are so hilarious. They make me laugh all day long. My daddy is really funny, too. How come you all just stare at me smiling so much?"

I went back to work last week. It was not near as hard as I had feared it would be. I was ready to see my friends at work and I feel like it was time to have some "distance" from Lia and the house. I think it's good for me to see that she will do fine at home with her daddy and I really don't have to be there to obsess over her every move. Corey as usual has handled it all in stride. He's great being at home with her and taking care of getting Colby to school and entertaining Jace and Lia all day.

We finally took Lia to church a couple of weeks ago. She was able to meet so many of the people who have been praying for her for soooo long. My parents and Corey's parents went with us...it was such a special day. It was really fun getting to go back to church as a family...a whole family. We won't put her in the nursery for quite a while, so she goes to class with Corey and me.

Since things have slowed down with Lia (hopefully, her next surgery wont be until she's 3 years old) I've decided to transition to a family blog. We will definitely keep this one and add to it as things progress with her, but I'll be updating the family one more often. There will be more info to follow about that soon. We love you all. Thanks for checking on us. She is still such a miracle.
