Alexandra is so adorable


I know that we think that because we are her parents but seriously, she is so cute. This weekend she made Wes and I smile all the time. In spite of her cough and runny nose, she was in great spirits. Her parents suffered from lack of sleep but seriously, that story is getting old...

So this weekend she started to crawl on her knees, sit up from a crawling position and is pulling herself up on whatever she can. It is crazy how she just makes these leaps in development. It doesn't seem like she works on one thing for a while until she get it- she actually works on a number of things all at once. She is very cool.

This weekend was also a nice break from radiation. Going back today was annoying. Not because it is difficult, just because of the obligation. I just want to be done. I feel like such a complainer but after about nine months of treatment, I am tired of it. The good news is that Wes and I had a great weekend. There was nothing really remarkable about it but it just felt normal. We had some time to do what we would have a year ago- watch Michigan football, do yard work, read magazines, etc. It is nice to not be stressed about life. We even started talking about vacations...stayed tuned to that because we are putting together the 20 places in the US we want to visit and the 20 international destinations....we did some brainstorming- NYC, Seattle, Grand Canyon, Back to Hawaii, Italy, Ireland, Nevis, etc. I guess we can think about this because we are happy and healthy in A2.
