Doctor visit went well for Grace

Grace's doctor visit went well. (Thanks for asking Cathy.) He is not so concerned with her loosing a bottle since she is hydrated and feeling well. He thinks it will improve with age (by 12 months). I am thrilled that we have gone 48 hours without vomiting a bottle so I think things look better already. Maybe her stress level is decreasing a little. Grace loved the waiting room of the doctor's office because there were lots of kids to watch. The doctor was also wandering if a laser had been taken to her 2 haemangiomia spots because they are indented, especially the one on her lower back and to a lesser degree on the bottom of her foot. He is not concerned about anything and said she looked on target developmentally for a 10-month old. We are still struggling with jet lag, but thank goodness that is the only problem going on here. Only 2 days to Christmas and Anna is getting excited. Tonight we are going to wrap a few presents for cousins. We will spend Christmas day in Noblesville at my sister's house (Angela) with my parents and Bonita's family (other sister). Anna and Grace will have 5 cousins to play with ranging in age from 21 to 5 years old. Anna wishes it was all 10 of her cousins so we will have to see the Tamura cousins again soon so she can show off her baby sister. The pictures are the cousins, Alexis and Olivia, visiting on Saturday. We have not been taking many pictures since home so I will have to get the camera out on Christmas day. Grace has been smiling more and pulling herself up to furniture. I think she is getting more comfort and stronger everyday.
