Great News!

Last week we received some great news about Farrah's adoption. The court date is set for May 29th at 9am. I am so ready to get this final!! Talk about having 100% relief that no one can come and "get" her. Thank you to everyone for all your prayers and support! We could not have done it without you!

This weekend Farrah got her first cold with fever. She woke up Saturday morning at 3:30am. That's not like her at all. She loves her sleep. She has slept all night since she was seven weeks so we both knew something was not right. So again at 6:30 and real whinny...which again not like her at all. This is the happiest baby I've ever seen in my life. So I took her temp and it's been 100 all day long. I called her pediatrician and her nurse suggested that we take her into a walk-in clinic. So after Farrah woke up from her afternoon nap I took her in the clinic and we were turned away because she is to young. They see patients starting at three months. She is four days away from being three months and they would still not see her so they sent me to another clinic and that clinic turned her away because she is to young. They don't see babies until they reach six months. So I got in the car and called Grace clinic and good news!!! They will see her but they closed at 5pm and I called at 4:55pm!! There was no way I was going to make it. I was at least 15 minutes away. So I got in my car and just started crying. My poor baby was crying because she doesn't feel good and I'm crying because who in their right mind goes to a medical clinic with a sick baby and gets turned away?? So I will take her to Grace clinic tomorrow. You know the thing that gets me about Farrah is that although she does not feel good she is still smiling! Sweet baby girl!!

My favorite picture from earlier this week. Can you see her hair? It is wild and I LOVE it!!



Enough drama for today because I'm exhausted!! I'll be up every couple of hours checking on Farrah. All I know is that tomorrow James is playing golf in the morning and I get a nap in the afternoon!!

Ok Leslie, I'm sitting her watching Princess Bride and the part where the rodents of unusual size attack and all I can think about is you when we played a game on our game night and you knew the answer about rodents of unusual size!! Sorry that is random!!

Poor thing! I know how frustrating that is. At least from now on the walk-in clinic will be able to see her. We have been there too many times to count when our dr. is not available. Fun times! j/k
