A full night of sleep...finally

We decided to put Dakota in his crib on Friday night. He slept for about 6 hours straight that night. The next night we put him down and he slept the entire night. Troy and I woke up to our alarms on Sunday morning in amazement. We should have put him in his crib weeks ago. You forget how nice a full night of sleep is. Dakota is still growing like crazy and starting to show his personality. He loves when people talk to him. He will give you a huge grin if he's in the right mood. He also likes to cuddle. He will let you hold him all day if you have the time. He is such a sweetie.
Collett is continuing to amaze us. She is such a sponge. You tell her something once and she remembers it. She plays games on the Wii and she has beaten me and Troy a few times. She likes to play games on the computer, too. She is much happier if you let her do it all by herself. She thinks that she is older than what she really is. She is so good with Dakota. She wants to hold him and kiss him all the time. She tells everyone about her baby brother, Baby Kota. She is so proud.
My Bell's alsy is getting better. This last wekk I decided to go get some acupunture done. As crazy as that sounds, it really wasn't that bad. The needles are so small that you barely feel them. Every says that my face is starting to heal faster than it was, so I guess that it's working. I am going to try it a few more times to see if I can get any further with it. At this point I will do just about anything to heal.
This is Troy's last week of work. We are excited and nervous all at the same time. Troy already has some great job opportunities lined up so that we can have some income to live on. I start back to work this week. I have missed being at the hopital helping to deliver babies. I am ready to get back to my job that I love so much.
We have a lot going on right now, so please keep us in your prayers. We have some big, tough decisions ahead of us. I will go into more detail later. I will post more pics soon.
