A Warm Smile

Alicyn and Gracyn are both doing great. We have had a wonderful couple weeks of weather and have gotten outside as much as possible. Earlier this week, the sturgeon were spawning in the river just below the dam (which is 3 blocks south of our house). I took a little video and when I get a chance, if it's any good, I'll post it. Quite a sight. Here's a little news article about it: http://shawanoleader.com/articles/2007/04/25/news/news1.txt

Gracyn has started giving us little smiles this week. She's doing so well. Last Monday she went in for more labs and was 9 lbs. 6 oz. She's gaining some good weight. The doctor adjusted the meds just a little and we go back in 3 more weeks from now. Her schedule has gotten much better (for us at least). She is eating just once during the night now and going to bed and waking up at the same time as we are. It's been bliss!

Alicyn LOVES to be outside. She has helped mommy with some gardening and she got a tricycle a few weeks ago from her Uncle Ed and Aunt Jenna. She loves to ride her 'new bike.' When we're outside, she'll walk into the garage and repeat over and over, "new bike, new bike". She still has a hard time pedaling, but she loves to be on it. FUN STUFF.
