Elation

January 13 - LASIK for me!!!!!! Yay!!!! I am so incredibly excited. The doctor was really nice, and was happy to know that my mother-in-law was one of the people he used to enjoy working with when he did surgery in Ft. Dodge. So that was cool too. I am so happy and relieved tonight, and a little blind still from the dilation.

Travis made chili this Sunday, and I don't know when I've ever seen Emily eat more!! It was amazing. She is really good with her signs for "eat" and "more" now, and she kept asking for more chili, bread, mandarin oranges, and animal crackers. When I took her bib off, I could see her HUGE tummy, and it looked like it was going to burst. (Pictures on picasa, of course) I thought she might have a tummy ache but she was really happy and went to bed at a normal time. The next morning, I set her down in the kitchen and she walked right up to the refrigerator signing "eat," and she ate a ton for breakfast, too. Crazy girl! And apparently chili is really a good trainer food for using a spoon, cuz she was getting pretty good at it.

I have to play cribbage with Travis now because he bought a new board online and we have to break it in. :)
