Back to School and Birthdays

This has been a big week of great news for Frances, and I'm so excited she got to go back to school (The Bell Center) today!  Amy, who is an early childhood special education teacher and also just happens to be Frances' godmother, was her therapist today....funny how Amy worked that out in the schedule:)

Telling bunny all about her hard day at school.
Frances had visits with the cardiologist, pediatrician, and had blood work done all on Tuesday and she was such a trooper!  Dr. Carlo (cardiologist) was SO impressed with her progress.  So much so that we don't even go back to see him for 4-6 months, and yesterday morning Frances took her last dose of medicine.  Her weight was 12 lbs 10 oz, so she has officially doubled her birth weight!

Time for my morning workout
This week we have celebrated 2 more birthdays.  Kat turned 9 on Monday, and I won't tell you how old Carolyn turned yesterday.  Kat had a rockin' Taylor Swift karaoke party, complete with a visit from Taylor Swift (aka a high school girl).  We completed the week with birthday dinners at Meme and Grumps house tonight.
Happy Birthday Kat!
Kat is a 3rd grade cheerleader this year, and we have been going to watch her cheer.  I'm pretty sure Frances is going to follow in Kat's steps.  She gets excited when we watch!
Saturday morning football!


Roll Tide!
So tomorrow, Frances goes to school/daycare for the first time.  She is just going for 2 hours tomorrow (more for me than her), and then on Tuesday she will be there full time while I am at work.  We found the perfect place for her that is right down the street from The Bell Center, and I know she is going to love making new friends.
