I know I've got to do better

Silly girl--she loves the camera, can you tell?

Too Cute for words

Anna's first snow. She liked it.

It just amazes me how the time flies now that Anna is home. I don't think the days have 24 hours in them anymore....more like 6. There just seems to be soo much to do and soo little time to do it in that by the time I actually get on the computer, I'm so worn out that I just quickly check my email and the bethany boards and then I'm in the bed or moving on to the next thing on my ever growing to do list.

Anna is doing much better with the sleep thing. We are slowly trying to get out of her bed and back into our own. At nap time, I lay down with her until she is asleep then I get up and get things done. At night I do the same thing and one of us goes in there when we are ready to go to sleep. Last night, I got up at 4:30 a.m. and went to my bed and we all slept till 8 a.m. everyone in their own bed :).

We go back to the pediatrician on Wednesday to see if Anna's ear infection has cleared up. If so the doctor thinks we can wait till we have her cleft surgery to have tubes put in but if not then we will probably go ahead and have that done here. We are trying to get the ball rolling with Shriners. Please pray that works out and they take Anna on as a patient and agree to do the surgery. It is our desire for me to stay home next year with Anna and help her adjust and bond. We don't think that is possible if we have surgery cost to pay. If Shriners agrees to take us then it is NO cost to us except travel. We feel God is leading us to Shriners so now we wait to see. We are hoping that we can have her surgery around the beginning of June. That will depend on Shriners and if they take Anna as a patient. Ok. I guess that is all for now.
