The Musings of Michelle

Here is my attempt to not let those little precious moments go unforgotten...

As I reflect back on my life so far I have realized that I'm really just an average girl, with an average life, living with an average disease. But what I do have is an AMAZING God who continues to blow me away with His love and His grace in my life. This is my attempt at putting into writing my journey so far.

congrats on the new job Matt! that is so awesome. the office sounds perfect for you too. hopefully it will turn into something permanent or the other interviews will pan out too.

and i love the canoe mare! that will be fun to take out. will bo go with you in the canoe? i bet he would love it unless he's like our freak of a dog and is afraid of water. reeces will only go in if he sees other dogs in the water.

not a whole lot going on. took hannah to another research assignment today. they inject her with these different drugs to see how she reacts and i get $5! can't beat that deal. .......ok folks hopefully you know that i am kidding. all they do is show some pictures to her on a screen to test her memory and see which ones she responds too. but i do get $5 which usually buys me mcdonalds afterwards. they say that she's one of the best babies they have, of course they probably say that to all the babies. :)

i just got done cleaning our downstairs bathroom which was quite nasty. we haven't been able to use our bathroom since we moved in back in december because it wouldn't flush. well the builder finally came yesterday to fix it and he had a heck of a time with it. it's never a good sign when the plumber has to bust out a drill. but finally in the end what was causing it were cleaning rags that the cleaning folks had flushed down the toilet. can you say idiots? well i won't go into much detail, but let's just say that in the process of unclogging the toilet some "stuff" went flying everywhere and he just left it for me to clean. i would have made someone else clean it, but i didn't think it was too bad until i really saw it and they were already gone and i wasn't about to wait until someone came. so that's been my fun day so far.

this weekend was a good one for us. we got a lot accomplished and had a lot of fun. friday night we went to donny and jamie's to play catan the cities and knights version. it was a close game all around, but in the end I pulled off yet another victory! i'm quickly losing my reputation as a bad catan player. :) so matt and trace, have you played it yet? i hope you get people hooked like we have. i know this sounds weird, but I actually think it's more fun to lose in this game, because it always makes you want to play again, especially when you were so close to winning too. but of course a victory to rub in to everyone is fun too.

we also got some cleaning and organizing done. we got some pictures hung up which was fun. it feels even more like a home now. saturday was our monthly potluck in our couple's class which is always yummy and then the guys had an improtu poker night and the girls watched uptown girl. cute movie. i love that dakota fanning girl. she is so talented. i can't believe she's only 8 years old. sunday was fun...i got to watch my friend's baby, Lila. she's a month older than hannah. she's going thru this separation anxiety phase and spent the first half of the evening screaming which was not fun, but she eventually got used to me and would play with me. then sunday night ryan went up new carlisle and i worked and watched the oscars until midnight. so there's our weekend glance.

this week is pretty relaxing since i won't have to work much. i've had to work a ton lately because of a deadline, but we made it and now there's not much to do. it will be good to caught up on some paper shuffling and other little stuff.

hannah is still sweet as ever. she's really getting into us which has been so much fun. she's laughing a lot more and follows us with her head and eyes a lot. she can roll from her back to tummy now. i have a video to send folks here shortly.

so has anyone seen passion yet? i wanted to get your take on it. i've heard it's pretty powerful. i really want to see it with my family, but we also have friends down here that i would like to see it with too, because i would like to be there to answer any questions they might have. but i don't know if i can take it more than once.

well i think hear hannah stirring about. have a great week everyone!
