Family Update

BABY - We had our first doctor's appointment for the baby on Friday, and everything was fine. All they checked was the heart beat which was about 164 beats per minute. In April we will be able to have an ultrasound and hopefully find out the sex of the baby. Having to travel so far to go to the doctor is more complicated than I thought it would be. Thankfully, our doctor from Mitchell travels to Chamberlain every 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month. That will make it a lot easier if we can get an appointment.

B - B is finally completely potty trained. We have not had any accidents in a while, and she is now also pooing on the potty chair. Staying dry at night and nap time came before this even. She is in big girl underwear all day and night. I must say potty training has been the hardest part of parenting so far.

D & I - Over the weekend (since we were closer) D ran up to our old house and quickly grabbed a few things we forgot--the microwave being the most important. We also did a lot of grocery shopping in Mitchell before we came home. Our grocery store in town is very limited and costly. We will probably have to do some shopping every time we head out of town. We found that it makes for a long trip home, and B has a hard time. All this traveling is going to be an adjustment that will take some time.
