We have many exciting things coming up in the next year. Mommy started a new job and only works Monday through Thursday now. Daddy has started his rotations and is done with all of his classes to become a Doctor of Audiology. Hopefully I will write about all of the exciting things, but if not, I will give you a brief synopsis of what we expect:
1) We will go to a family reunion in July
2) Rylie will have a birthday in August
3) You will have a new cousin in September
4) Derek will have a birthday in early November
5) You will have a new sibling in late November
(Mommy is betting on enjoying a Dollarhite Family hospital Thanksgiving dinner this year)
6) Mommy will take her 1st ever maternity leave in December
7) Daddy will graduate in May and we will have a surprise for you!
We love you more than you could possibly imagine and are so grateful that we get to watch you learn and grow. You are the best!
XOXO,
Mommy and Daddy
