I am no longer apologizing for how long it takes to update.  Because I think you believed for the first little while, but now it's an ongoing thing!! 

Things are going great at home.  Lauren is using her voice more, which has its pros and cons.  Pro-YAY we hear her voice!!!  Con, it means there's an airleak around her trach, and she might not be getting as much air as she can.  But she is getting bigger.  She' up to a full 12lbs 11 oz!  She's kicking more, and sustaining movements (holding her arms out for longer periods of time).  She's tracking well with her eyes, and responds to voices well.

I've some new pics to put up, so be sure to check out the pic section when your done reading this blog.

Now that you're back from seeing the pics (I'm sure many of you just rushed off to see the new pics), you can see how much she's grown, and she is getting some of Daddy's features.  Nevertheless, she's still darn adorable, and we all couldn't be more proud.

I'm off to do more homework, for it never ceases!  Anyone who went or is going to teacher's college understands what I'm going through with that.  Thank you as always for your continuing love, support, thoughts and prayers.
