Growing Up

Well we should probably start by giving you an update on the medical stuff. We got a call today from the the doctor and her blood numbers are officially in the normal range! We are so excited. She has been slowly turning the corner all on her own and is now right were she needs to be. We feel so blessed and happy she was able to do it all on her own and we never had to do any interventions.

Grace is growing up so fast. She is getting lots of cute baby rolls and we love every one of them. She is such a happy baby. She has the best smile in the world and she knows how to use it. One smile and she has mom and dad in the palm of her hand. She is quit the talker too. She always has lots of important things to tell us, if only we were smart enough to understand all of it. She has been doing a lot of firsts over the last couple of weeks. She had her first sleepover at Grandma and Grandpa Stokers, went to her first resturant, first time at church, first family vacation, and first family function. She has done great with all of them. We were able to go on a family vacation to Sun Valley for spring break. We didn't do much but it was so nice to just spend some time as a family and relax a little. We love being parents. She is truly fills our lives with so much joy. We feel so privileged to be entrusted with such a perfect little angel.

As for us, our lives are mostly consumed with figuring out parenthood, school and work. Chris is finishing up the last few weeks of school and is ecstatic to be done. He is going to take the summer off from school to help take care of Grace while Jane heads back to school. Jane is heading into another semester along with starting her internship. Nothing is set in stone but it looks like she will be doing it at Bingham Memorial Hospital in Blackfoot. She is nervous to leave Grace but hopes it won't be for long. Chris is still busy doing the National Guard. There is no news there for now. He is just working hard and looking forward to the future.
