7 Months

Hard to believe it has been 7 months! Haddie is growing and learning every day. We had a good doctors visit last week with our pediatrician. Haddie was up to 11 lbs 2oz. The doctor said she was gaining weight well and was happy with the amount she was taking through her bottle. We will meet with him again on Dec 30th to see how she's doing and then decide on the G Tube. If she's doing good on the bottle she may not need the G Tube...which would be great.

It's really cool to see Haddie making little steps. She seems to be getting stronger neck muscles and can lift her head a little bit better now. She also is getting better at tracking objects with her eyes.

The best feeling is that Kate and I are finally getting into a routine. We feel settled. We are comfortable leaving Hadassah with family and friends on occasion. Last night Kate and I went out on a date to grab some dinner and watch a movie.  What a blessing. It was good to just be a husband and not worry about being a dad for a little bit. Kate and I will make that a monthly practice...and I encourage parents out there to do the same. It really was an enjoyable night.

We are very thankful for your continued prayers. Here's a cute video of Kate's family and Haddie on Sunday afternoon:
