Now for updates:
Jamie--working hard and long hours at IDI as "sector business manager." He does a very good job. He is also still enjoying the little time he gets with the Timothy Youth Groups at church--lock-in coming up this weekend...woohoo! (After the lock-in, maybe he'll understand how I've felt each night of Madi's life with us) :)He's looking forward to being able to play some disc golf regularly now that the weather has warmed. He's a wonderful husband and an exceptional daddy, especially for the girls. God knew what he was doing when He gave us girls. I think it takes a special man to be a successful father to girls and I'm confident Jamie is the very best.
Cheryl--working hard and long hours being a full-time mommy to two beautiful, wonderful girls, one Callie and one Madi. In fact, in many ways, it has felt like one long continuous day the last 5 1/2 mths. Mostly because Madi is still waking several times a night and not leaving me with more than 3-4 hrs. of sleep at a time on most occassions. Whatever--it won't last forever and I don't want to wish any time with my girls away. It's flown by so fast already and they are both getting soooo big!!! I am still creating very little for Good JuJu and continue the all-important creating days with friends. Playdates and parks are pretty much my life right now and that's fine with me. I'm still tandem nursing and having some challenges with that, but nothing that will make me stop. I live very comfortably and wont for nothing--my life is blessed!
Callie--my 2 1/2 yr old is growing into a very nurturing young girl, who notices a lot more than I would expect. She is very empathetic and a bit shy around others she doesn't know very well. But, with company she knows, she is a bundle of energy and loves to include everyone. A wonderful big sister and helper for me, she is beautiful, both outside and inside and I just don't want her to grow anymore. Her favorite smell is orange peel--always has to smell the peels as we get ready to eat oranges. She listens intently and learns quickly. Thought about pre-school, but I'm keeping her home one more year with me. I'm sure she will thrive in school and love the structure one day. She is my very best and favoritest Callie and I so love being able to stay home and help her grow.
Madison (Madi)--my 5 mth old. She is a bright-eyed happy girl who loves to be included and not left playing alone for too long. She is a great nurser and has the thighs to prove it--you just gotta pinch 'em when you see them. She does not sleep through the night yet, but with God's help, maybe she'll get there someday soon. (please!) She thinks Callie is sooo funny at times and we hear the belly laugh when those times come. She's got the most contagious smile and screeches when she's excited. She's rolling over both ways now and working on sitting up by herself, but her all-time favorite is standing. She is getting really good at grabbing and is beginnig to become a bit of a snuggle-bug in the nighttime hours. She is so loved by so many people and is my very best and my favoritest Madi. I'm so glad to get the blessing of helping her grow too.
