Finally a new update

Yes, yes, I know. I've heard from EVERYONE at how bad I have been about updating since we've gotten home. I'm telling you, Izzie plus 3 more really keep me busy. Anyway, our baby dedication went great. Our pastor called Brandon Brad there for a bit, but it was because there was a guy that got saved earlier that was named Brad. We understand, but we still joke with our pastor about it. Izzie was trying to talk to the crowd while the dedication was going on. Everyone just thinks she is so cute, and I totally understand why.

For Spring Break we went to Gatlinburg with some friends. We had a great time. We took Izzie around the aquarium to look at the fish. She just loved it, especially the big ones. We took the kids ice skating, walked around everywhere, went picnicking, it was great. But the day after we got there we were at the outlet mall shopping for Easter dresses for the older girls. I was in the dressing room with Mackenzie when Brandon brings Izzie back to me. She was covered in blood!!! She fell and hit her head on the T-shirt rack. So, as I was panicking, we rushed her to the bathroom to clean her up. Then we rushed to find a medical clinic to take her to. They were going to give her 3 stitches, but they ended up doing a butterfly. Unfortunately she wouldn't keep the sterile strip on, so now she has a gash in her head. It's really not that bad, but we are still putting Mederma on it to help keep down scarring.

Easter was great for Izzie. She had a great time Easter egg hunting. She really loved it after she realized that there was chocolate in the plastic eggs. (She's a chocoholic just like her mom!!!) Finally she would find an egg and open it just to see what was in it. After the hunt she was even getting into other children's eggs to get their chocolate. What are we going to do with her???

I must say she had adjusted great. God really blessed us with the perfect baby. We all just love her to death. We will try to keep the blog updated more. Also, please pray for my friend Kristi. They have been in process for soooooo long. She is leaving tomorrow to go foster for only God knows how long. We hope it will be a short trip and that Kristi and Sydney will be home very soon!!!
