One of the restaurants we have gift cards for is Red Lobster, which is Paul's favorite. I'm not a seafood person, but thankfully they always have at least one chicken item on the menu. I do enjoy their biscuits! Even though we arrived at 4:25pm, we had to wait 15 minutes for a table. Nadia thought the pager was a cell phone. It was so cute! She wore her size 5 black patent shoes for the first time. Aren't they adorable?
We started trying to have children in May 2002. After pursuing fertility treatments, domestic, and international adoption, our daughter Nadia Renee was born on 6-24-08 (at 36w4d). IVF #2 resulted in Ian Alexander, who was born on 12-12-09 (at 34w3d). Oliver Elliot (IVF #3) was born on 8-7-12 (at 31w6d)! Three other pregnancies (in 2005, 2007, and 2013) ended in miscarriage. Our family is complete! We are so thankful for our three miracles!

Red Lobster
Nadia and I seem to be back to normal health with the exception that we both still have runny noses. So far it seems that Paul managed to escape catching this cold. Thankfully, I haven't had any more contractions or bleeding. Although I'm hoping our son will stay nestled in tight for at least another 12 weeks, it's very comforting to know he's at the point where his chances of survival if he were to be born now are very, very high.
Nadia woke up at 5:40 again this morning. Yesterday I let her cry some and then she was quiet until 6:10 when I got her. This morning she cried for maybe 30 seconds and then was quiet until 6:20 when Paul got her. Both days she's taken a 45 minute nap around 9am, and both days she's taken an afternoon nap from about 1:30-3:00pm. So I guess I won't try the transition to one nap again quite yet. I guess the key was pushing back the time of her morning nap. This schedule won't work on Mondays and Tuesdays since we leave for Sarah's at 2:15. Maybe I'll have her take a later afternoon nap at Sarah's those days? We shall see.

I'll be using the breathable white crib bumper for her brother's crib. I know she doesn't need a bumper at this stage, but I found a (used) one that went with her Gossamer Wings crib set on eBay for less than $10 including shipping. Now that she's past the risk of SIDS, I got it for her crib just because it's so pretty. As you can see, she had fun playing in the box it came in.
