So it has been awhile since I have posted just a general update on us. Life is good and we are very fortunate people. Macie is growing fast and learning to talk which keeps us laughing all the time. We get compliments daily on how cute she is or how well behaved she is, and it makes us proud. We definitely could not imagine life with out her. The best part is watching her discover new things, like eating with a fork or pointing at an airplane fly overhead or say the word 'apple'. It really is the little things in life.
She has been a little sick over the past week with Hand, Foot and Mouth disease. It actually sounds a little worse than it is, but no fun none the less. It is a common childhood virus that is passed from kid to kid. It causes fever and sores in the mouth and/or on the hands and feet. It usually lasts 3-5 days. Monday and Tuesday was rough but she is definitely kicking it over the past 24-48 hours. She is back to her inquisitive self, climbing all over and exploring every nook and cranny of the house.
Wende is doing well with the 2nd pregnancy. 13 weeks along now. The nausea and vomiting finally gave up after week 7 or 8. We have a regular appt next Monday and should be able find out the sex in about 5-6 more weeks. I've asked Wende to wait and just find out when he/she is born, but she is a little too type A personality for that :-). She is hoping for another girl and I could go either way. A boy would be great, but Macie has me suckered for little girls.
As for me, still working away in Adult Med in Mesa. The practice is still growing so it has been a little slow this summer. However, I can not complain that I have had every Friday off to spend with my little family. We still live in Queen Creek and enjoy our home, neighbors and family that live close by. We get together often with them for BBQs, cards and some ROCK BAND (a big shout out to my fellow bandmates in Tallywacks Banana).
This weekend we head to Salt Lake for my good friend Dave's wedding. He is getting married in Midway, near Park City, so we are looking forward to some cool weather. I will drop an update after the weekend with some photos.

sorry to hear Macie has HF&M my kids have never gotten that but I've heard from other parents how horrible it is.
So I'm type A too, but I could wait, come on Wende you can do it! It's so fun.
Wende if you find yourself with some down time while you are in Utah, give me a call.
The HF&M is going around like crazy in St. George. I'm just waiting for my turn and crossing my fingers that we don't get it!!! I'm glad things are going well. Your family is darling and I can't wait to find out about the babe on the way!
