A look back

We are just enjoying a sunday evening together and were looking back on some of the pictures and videos we have of Sylvia and found a few funny ones. Here's one to give you a laugh. She was probably only about a month old at the time.

We have finally been enjoying some nicer weather but it still gets cold every once in a while. Mom and Dad Giauque have enjoyed seeing Sylvia grow so much in the last few months. Dad says that she must add a half a million cells a day. They will be leaving for Belgium in anther two weeks.

Sylvia attended her first baptism yesterday. Victoria Gersdorf of our ward was baptized. She is a very sharp eight year old and has enjoyed seeing Sylvia get bigger. Since Sylvia has now able to roll over she has become more mobile...but that also means we have to keep our eyes on her a little more than we have in the past. In fact, just today we had little mishap. Sylvia was laying on an otoman we have and Benjamin was playing with her. He took her eyes off her for just a second and the next thing we knew, she was on the ground. She wasn't hurt but got very frightened and cried quite a bit. It's a good thing that babies forgive so easily.

Last Friday was my last day of work. It was difficult to come to the decision to leave work but I feel it is a good decision for our family. I am taking a medical transcription course which I hope to complete in a few months which will allow me to work from home. I'm glad I have some backfground in medical terminology, anatomy and physiology. Being a volunteer medical interpreter for Primary Children's Midical Center for a year and a half really helped with that. I'm also glad I took those courses in college.

We hope to keep everyone updated a little more regularly so stay posted in the near future.
