An Appointment! And pictures! And Christmastime!

So Monday we had an appointment with the specialists, and he says her hips look great on the x-rays! That is very good news! She has 6 weeks until her next appointment, and after that she only has to wear her brace while sleeping. We are praising God for his mercies! :D He is so good to continue to grow her body toward having no hip displacia!

Also happening this week is a lot of pictures. I saw our friend Tessa's picture of her beautiful little ones, and my beloved Big Sis sent me a pinterest idea, which both culminated in my having a really fun time of taking a MILLION PICTURES of our little girl. Hehe. Here is a snippet of them:












I know, it SEEMS like a lot. But it really isn't. There were over two hundred at each time. :D I have a lot of other pictures I intended to put up, but this is sort of an overload of picture wonderfullness, so I will hold off I guess. :D I hope this was as fun for you as it was for me! :D

A few of these made the Christmas card, so if you want a Christmas card, please get me your address! (I lost my address book, so I'm looking for addresses! :D )

Hope y'all are doing great, celebrating the first coming of our glorious Savior, and growing in anticipation at the second coming! We appreciate you all, and send our love and prayers!
Merry Christmas from the Bulls! <3

Two Months!

On Monday Hadassah turned 2 months old! Hooray!

There isn't much to update. She is smiling now, and cooing. She holds her head up like a pro! And she is growing steadily. Her 2 month check-up was great and she took her shots as well as possible (some crying, but immediately stopped when we gave her a bottle!) She also hasn't been sore or had a fever, so I think the shots were okay overall! She sees the specialist for x-rays on Monday. :]

Without further ado, the pictures!

She is growing.... it's the same beanie! :D 

all smiles until she notices the camera! Haha. 

 Her first BSU Ugly Christmas Sweater Party!


 Her first snow! Also her 2 month day! And her first day in her crib. :[

with mommy....
and with daddy!


 just being so adorable. i have more smiling pictures i will add next time. :]

 At my cousin's graduation! Which she slept through! Congrats Josh! :D

That's all for now! More smiling pictures to come. They are on my phone, so it take a little longer to transfer them over. Tah-tah for now!

Happy Thanksgiving! (6 weeks)

Hello everyone and happiest of happy Thanksgiving weeks from the Bulls! 
I hope you are all well, happy, healthy and having a great time with family! Hoping everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving tomorrow!

Hadassah had her first really long trip this week. We came to Jonathan's parents' house, which is 7 hours away from home. A looooong trip, which she slept through, so that was nice! The problem is that her sleep patterns were completely thrown off, so we haven't gotten a lot of good sleep at night since we have been here. Luckily, there are grandparents who want to feed her in the morning, so we can sleep in to make up for her being awake all night long. Please pray with us that her sleep patterns readjust well after the trip back on Saturday!


Something really cool is that she got to meet Jonathan's grandma, her great-grandma... very awesome since great grandma is a lot older! It was a really fun time, and we will get to see her again tomorrow for Thanksgiving. What a blessing!

Today Hadassah is 6 weeks old! Last night she weighed 10 pounds 2 ounces, and is eating more and more, leading me to believe she is in a growth spurt. Of course, that weight is on the scale here at Grandma and Grandpa Bull's house, so it isn't doctor's-office-official. The picture to the right is one without her brace. Some little-had free time, kicking around like she loves!


There are some fun things happening. She is smiling a lot now, and making noises other than crying... cooing and almost like laughing sounds, though not real laughs yet.

She is also holding up her a LOT more consistently. She has a strong little neck! 

Hope you all have a blessed Thanksgiving! Love y'all!!
