nora growing up: How you doin'?

"How are you/Dug/Nora/things/" is the number one question I get asked these days. As you know what? We're great! (Everyone, stop what you're doing and knock on wood. Hurry!). Okay, the dust mite thing has been a challenge and money is what money is for those of us that are not independently wealthy. But honestly, Nora is doing so well that most if the time all of that recedes. It's been weeks since we've seen a doctor after months of constant appointments. She's sleeping a solid 8 hours almost every night and then goes back down for another 4. She's eating well, gaining weight, and she appears to be doing all the things that babies her adjusted age should be doing. So for anyone out there who sent us good thoughts or prayed for us, know that I'm sending them back at you because for now everything is just peachy. Our next appointment is next week so keep your fingers crossed that the doctors think she's doing as well as we do.
