Come have FUN with the Conrads!!!

We lean on Jesus as He is our strength for everyday.
1 Peter 4:11 Whoever speaks, is to do so as one who is speaking the utterances of God; whoever serves is to do so as one who is serving by the strength which God supplies; so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belongs the glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Catch us if you can!

So we have lots to catch you up on:

Essie is likely going to be over 6 ft tall according to all the internet calculators (you know 95% accuracy within 2 inches).  She measured at her well check at 38 inches (off the charts for a 2 year old).  And now a pic of my cutie with Adeline and cousin Faye at Blue Springs:

Adeline jumped off the high dive at Blue Springs.  She saw me jump off and made a bee line for the platform. I intercepted her and she not only jumped off once, but twice.  So brave!  LOVE it!  (I deserve kudos too for not freaking out that my 3yr old wanted to jump for it).  Now granted we had Papa in the water there to rescue her after her jump (and we had Cousin Tess and Faye there to cheer her on, surprised it didn’t require goggles!).

So the recent thing to knock my socks off is that tonight Adeline said I was her best friend.  No prompting either.  Never even have heard her say much about what that means.  I just drank it in as a blessing that she enjoyed the fun we had today.  Which I might add was a tea party that involved all the dolls in the house and we ate ice-cream.  Think I know my way to her heart.  Did I mention sprinkles and even more Willy Wonka candy (that is the name of the candy now that we have seen Charlie and the Chocolate Factory).

Bryan is now officially University of Florida, College of Medicine, Research Assistant Professor.  I am super duper way proud of him.  So now instead of Dr. Bryan he can be called Professor Conrad, ha ha!  Love you dear!

As for me…. for the record, the beat goes on in Heart Transplant world.  It is a great job with a boss/coworkers that is very flexible with letting me have family time.  It only feels like a job after being away from my cuties for too long.  I bring several of my patients to this blog to show off my sweet family.  Just about every time I am in clinic someone gets to look at these cute girls!  It is way easier than carrying around outdated photos!
