Oh, my. Marc is in the middle of shaving his beard so he doesn’t scare Dorothy. He calls this stage The Bubba.
My white board and bulletin board are filled with work notes, but I found room for one daughter/ new granddaughter photo. Look forward to updating when we get family pictures taken in Florida next weekend!
Applied for HDHP’s for both Marc & me today; crossing our fingers for a rate we can afford! Our agent will let us know as soon as he hears back. …a new post! I’ve been very busy with my new, and wonderful, job. I’m working as a controller at a small manufacturing company in the Asheville area. My hours are crazy, but it’s a good kind of crazy so that’s okay. Recent activities have included:
It’s sort of boring when I put it all in a list like that, huh? Anyway, I found an app for posting here and hope that will help me update more regularly. ~*~ Upcoming events:
Somehow the future doesn’t look more sparkly, but life is good. I wonder if there’s an app for this…?
Mother and daughter are doing well. Marc, Milo and I were able to be there for the birth. She was scheduled to be induced on 10/9 at 6:00 am. Real labor didn’t begin until after midnight on 10/10. Elspeth spent about 2 hours pushing (she was a champ; figured out early that the better she did on pushing, the faster she’d be done!) and Dorothy was born at 4:10 am on 10/10. Els had a hard time delivering the placenta; bled quite a bit losing more than a liter. Some fluids, and bit of light-headedness later, she was doing fine. We had to leave, head home, around 9 am. Marc, Milo and I gave Dorothy her first feeding (30 ml of formula since Elspeth wasn’t yet feeling well enough to hold Dorothy). Dorothy will have a scan today (sinus issue, so they’re checking her kidney’s and hearing since sinuses and kidneys develop at the same time). Her little toes are adorable (each foot has a toe that bends a bit and ends up under the next toe, as if she were crossing her toes while promising to tell the truth). Beautiful black hair, darker blue eyes. I wonder if she’ll keep them?
The view from across the road, around 2pm today. Lovely, yes???
The view from our front door; a friend noted that it looks like Narnia. :)
Marc has tamed his mountain man beard, and I like it! We have some clean up to do on it today or tomorrow to whip it into it’s final shape, but this is an adorably good start!! Okay, my title is probably pretty gross once I hit the topics it covers:
~*~ In other news, Moira has approximately 235 more operations to complete at school, and 71 days in which to get them. I used to try and go in twice a month to get something done, but that doesn’t work any more with our new rules regarding lunch hours. The students all work on each other to get those operations, but clearly the school will need to step up the advertising for the program if the students are all to finish with the requirements for their licensing met!
