Today was another long day. Nikki's check up was today so we got up early and got the doctor's office by 8:30. It's a trick with an 8 day old and a mom who is still recovering but we still managed to wait 5 hours to the see the doctor. Several times we wanted to leave but Nikki had to get her staples take out today. It's a relief that they are taken out.
On the bright side, we happened to run into a couple that had their baby the same day that we did. They helped us tremendously to navigate the confusion of that day. Lucille had her baby exactly one our after we had Thomas and she was delivered by the same doctor. Israel, Lucille's husband speaks very good English and Lucille wants to learn. So Nikki and Lucille exchanged phone numbers and they are planning on getting together soon.
Tomorrow we will take Thomas to the doctor. We are hoping that it will not be an all day affair but we are growing to expect it to be that way. We've learned that if we plan on being at the doctor for the entire day then we will be pleasantly surprised it the opposite occurs.

OK Nik, I absolutely love the pic of lydi at the top. Today I have had you on my heart all day long. I miss you terribly. Yesterday, Delta and I were talking about our friendship and it made me just remember how much I loved you being "back there" (as Jake would say) I miss you here giving me perspective and being just a real friend. After yesterday, God has brought to my mind all of my friends that are so dear and dependable and you my sweet friend - and ben too - are at the top of our list. I am sad I am not there to help you and love on sweet lydi. I miss you all so much. I love you.
