This was the first dress I ever bought for Svea the summer that I was pregnant with her. We had just found out that "she" was a SHE and I was in Bismarck shopping at T.J. Maxx. That's totally random, but the dress is sure cute on her!
We're doing well! While Dan was gone in Wisconsin being with his Mom and Dad and helping with funeral arrangements, the three of us lived:) I'm only kidding, but I can officially say I am not afraid of being at home with both kids anymore. I really don't know why I was so scared, but I'm glad it went ok. Someone once told me that with each new family member you have to get used to the "new" normal of your daily life. So glad we got the opportunity to figure things out and most importantly Dan was able to be with his parents during that time.
I've decided not to cut her bangs. I'm going to get some small barrettes and pull her bangs to the side. Hopefully we can grow them out so her hair is all one length. We'll see how well she tolerates them.
Dan's lost 21.5 lbs and I've lost 21! He's beating me! It sure helps with my motivation though. Since I haven't been to the doctor yet (I would usually go at 6 weeks, but because of the funeral I'll go at 7 weeks) I'm waiting to really work out until I get the go ahead. My joints are still sore and I randomly crack everywhere. I have been walking and doing a few low impact exercises on the ipad with light weights, sit-ups, etc. It feels good. Dan just eats ice cream and loses weight. Whatever:)
She looks like a flapper in the above photo. She thought her bow was so cool and was smiling and making the "O" face at herself in the mirror up above too!
Pray for Dan's family during this time. They have many great memories of their Dad and Grandpa. I'm looking forward to hearing more. We know he is in such a wonderful place. I thank God we have such a place and for saving us with his only son.
