another week...






so, i have to say, i am really feeling much better!!!  thanks for all of your prayers and concern!  once my eardrum ruptured, the pain was essentially gone.  all i have had all week is the stuffiness and drainage, with an occasional sinus headache!  and, muffled sound in one ear!  but, all seems to be better.  i can hear almost normally out of my right ear again, and it is so much nicer!  hopefully i can face these last few weeks sickness-free!  

it was a busy week and a busy weekend.  david is really enjoying his new job, and working A LOT!!  i have been napping every time nora does, and that makes for a happier mom and baby.  we went to dog beach again yesterday, after david got off work.  (it was 85*, by the way...)  i was taking some pictures of nora, and she looked up at me and said "no cheese".  (cheese is what she says whenever she sees the camera)  i had to laugh!!!  she still ran away from the water, although played quite a bit in the sand.  she enjoyed seeing her reflection in the wet sand.  she would put her face down, then run to daddy to clean off her very sandy face!

today, we thought we would do the pool (again, about 80*).  our pool is "heated", year round.  except it's not really.  but, we were all dressed up and ready for it, so we enjoyed the hot tub instead (which isn't as hot as a hot tub normally is!!!)  nora had so much fun!

on tuesday, i had another midwife visit.  last time, she let nora help find james' heartbeat with the doppler.  so this time, two weeks later, i reminded nora that we could go and hear james' heartbeat.  we got there, and she kept saying "help".  she totally remembered.  and all week, when we talk about james, she says "heartbeat", and then sometimes "help"!  it's so cute!!

she is really growing up into a cute big girl.  she obeys well so much of the time, and is just a joy to be around!  i know, all parents might say that about their kids, but i thought i would add it here.
