Since so many of you asked...

Who does Mya look like? I don't have a baby picture of Levi on my computer, but here are the other three. (I don't think she looks like Levi, but some do.) What do you think?

 

Bottoms up!

 

Miss Mya

Here are a few pics of Mya's first couple of days at home.

 

 

 

Our New Normal

We are settling into the whole diabetes routine with Levi. Things are going smoothly, so far. He has accepted these chances so well, and really takes ownership of his care. We're so thankful for this! (John and I say he's coped much better than we have!) He checks his blood before every meal, before bedtime, and then we check it while he's sleeping at 2 a.m. Before he eats, we give him an insulin shot based on his blood glucose level and based on how many carbs he is going to eat. (My Dad gives him his shots at school.) He can eat anything he wants, as long as he "pays for it" first with insulin. His friends at school have beeen so good--they bring him sugar-free gum for their birthday treats. We will consider getting him an insulin pump, but that is months down the road.

 

 

 

 

2 more Baby Projects

Here are a couple other baby items I sewed in the last little while.

 

 

Baby's nursery

Pregnancy sure does weird things to people. I've always HATED sewing. But, the last few months, I've been sewing up a storm. (Not sure what might happen once the baby's born!) Here is the completed nursery. I sewed the dust ruffle, valances, bumper pad, pillows, and blanket. They don't make mistakes on ultrasounds anymore, do they?!
