We had a great trip to SC and NC. Mia is pretty good in the car thankfully. We had a blast in NC with Dave's sister's family. We took some family pictures at the Duke Gardens but it was sooo hot Mia was very miserable. We did get a few good shots of her. She has grown so much and is large and in charge! Being her mom is the BEST!!
When we were in SC recently visiting my family, my grandparents dog passed away. She was more than just a pet to them and it was so sad to hear of her loss. I remember when they got Sissie and how much they have loved her over the years. My heart goes out to my grandparents but thankfully we all have great memories of Sissie.
I love my family so much and love it when they come to visit. Thank goodness for Mia because we have a lot more visitors now and we love it. My sister and her family were in town and they were loving all over our girl. My niece and nephew Grace and Luke loved Mia and thought it was hilarious that she didn't have any teeth. They kept making me lift her lips to show them her gums. I was cracking up. So here's an open invite to any friends and family who want to come and visit us and meet our lil sassafras Mia! We would love to have you!
Mia is waving goodbye to all her visitors. She says "Y'all come back now, ya hear".
Mia was blessed Sunday, June 1st and we were so blessed to have most of my family in town. Most of the Chapman gang was present and I LOVED having my siblings all together. It was a rare treat. Mia wore the same dress I was blessed in and looked beautiful. Dave did a great job and I am so thankful for the priesthood he holds. She slept through her blessing and was an angel through sacrament. She really likes to show off! It was a perfect day that is one of my favorite memories. We missed you mom, "Get Well Soon!" . We missed Kim and the kids too!!

Mia got the cutest headband from her Aunt Karen (one of Dave's sisters). She is so cute I just want to eat her up!!!!
Mia's cardiology appt went well, and the Dr. was great. The cardiologist said that Mia does have a murmur, but it is a functional murmur (patent foramen ovale) and everything is normal. Her blood pressure was normal and they did a doppler echocardiogram, which showed the blood flow and blood vessels all to be normal. It was a huge relief to finally get some good news at the Dr.'s office. Mia now weighs 8 lbs 4 oz which is 5 oz more than she weighed on Tuesday. Thanks for all the support.
