Dad: Happy Half Birthday to Cambria

Well, these updates are a bit out of date.  Sorry for being slow.  First off that big bad appointment that I was dreading last week didn't happen.  All of that build up and she didn't make counts.  This was frustrating and relieving for me.  The procrastinator in all of us was excited, but at the same time putting it off doesn't change what needed to be done.  Also, despite finding things frustrating I didn't foresee the scary factor, and it scared the crap out of my wife.  She put us all on quarantine.  While this was not the response that I had I have to admit finding out that her count of white blood cells was 210 when a baby her age would normally have a 1500...yeah, that’s understandable.  So things were postponed for 8 days.

Anyway, fun baby updates happened over the intervening time.  She sits up now.  She kind of sat before, but now she can sit up like it's not even hard....until she gets bored.  She seems to think that face planting is a good way to spice things up when there are no more toys to throw.  Don't judge it till you've tried it.  Also we started give her real food.  Every time we give her something new it seems to rock her world a little but she is quite eager.  So far we've tried avocado and squash.  Squash seemed to make her pass out, but sleep eating is funny to watch.

What else...she's in size 3 drapers now.  That's not terrible eventful, but it happened.  Oh, but that does mean that the super useful blue line that indicates when she has and has not peed isn't on this size.  Darn you diaper people!


Umm...yeah, she's awesome (and her counts did come back eventually) and our God is an awesome God.
