Contrary to what this picture portrays we have made it through the last four months of Ruth's life with some sanity left! Children really are a blessing from the Lord. God has given us great joy the past year in awaiting Ruth's arrival, and in her time with us. He has given us the grace to get through this big lifestyle change, and I know He is forming us more and more into the image of Christ every day (through tears, and poopy diapers, too!). We praise Him for the mercy He's had upon us, and for the hope of what He will do through Ruth in the future.
Ruth, by the by, had her four month check-up and now weighs a whopping 14 lbs 3 oz, and is almost 25 inches long. The doctor said she is very healthy. Ruth, however, does not think very highly of the nurse that gave her some immunizations. "Boo on her," I think were her exact words.
