Emily and I are getting happily settled into our new life. Emily is absolutely thrilled to spend every day playing with Uncle Jacob!! She is quite the Grandpa's Girl, even though if you asked mom she'd say Emily's a Grandma's Girl~ Emily's vocabulary has expanded tremendously! Every day there's new words and phrases! Last night she said her own name for the first time....unfortunately I have yet to hear it... She knows who everyone is and also responds to & understands all commands. She is so content and always so sweet & loving. She remains to be the happiest baby that I have ever seen! She's also the tallest one-and-a-half year old that I have ever seen. She is taller than her new friend Lakota, who happens to turn 3 in August! I have always said that she's my little super-model!!
I am loving my new job! I work in the Birthing Center at St. John's hospital in Longview. It is so wonderful being right in the middle of all of the new babies being born! I even was lucky enough to hold a brand new 11-hour-old baby girl for almost an hour! Talk about perks of the job! It's a commute from home, but the 30 mile drive goes pretty fast both ways.
Needless to say, I am very satisfied with my life-changing decision for my daughter and I. Things are swiftly moving in a very positive direction for us. She is obviously happy and I, too, feel SO MUCH better... at home... with family~
