6 weeks old!

Selah is 6 weeks old today!  We are continuing our routine of about 2 doctor visits/week.  I am so thankful that All Children's Hospital is only 30 minutes away and not farther!  Selah is still wearing her harness for her hip and was recasted to correct her club foot on the left leg.  The ultrasound of the hip showed that the harness seems to be working!  The orthopedic doctor was also impressed at how her foot looked when he recasted it and said that possibly  this new cast may be the last one she will need!  We also saw the pediatrician for her 1 month well-visit.  She weighed 11lbs 7oz (with her cast on) and was 22" long.  She will go back at 2 months to start getting her vaccines.  We will also see the urologist tomorrow for a follow-up appointment, and monday she will have her hearing retested with the audiologist.  Otherwise, all is going well and nothing really to report, which is a good thing!  GLORY TO GOD!

Over the weekend, we took advantage of the nice weather and went out for a short boat ride, which was the first time as a family of four.  Sage is taking after her daddy and enjoys fishing, and she caught her first fish, while we were out.  She really liked playing with the shrimp, though, before they were used for bait.  I have also started running again in an attempt to get back in shape, so we also went on our first family run to the park over the weekend.    We also took Selah to the beach for the first time to watch daddy kite-board during all the windy weather from the hurricanes.  Selah is quite a trooper and just sleeps through all of our little adventures.
Pictures soon to follow!
