Abigail Attends Graduation

Yesterday Abby attended the University of Michigan School of Dentistry's graduation to see her dad receive his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree. She stayed awake for the first half of the ceremony, but fell asleep before Steve actually received his degree and proceeded to sleep through the post-graduation reception as well.

Steve is finally done with dental school and we are on to the "adult" portion of life - jobs, a house (we hope), and a family.

Abby did a great job at graduation - she didn't cry during the ceremony and we only had to sneak out once for a diaper change. Unfortunately, she was SO overstimulated during the day that we had a really, really, really long night. Abby couldn't figure out what to do with herself last night, so she cried and fussed and stayed awake. We are hoping a day or two home alone without visitors will help her get back on schedule and back to being a content little girl.

Congratulations, Steve! A new baby girl and a degree in just a few weeks time! It is great to be able to keep up with you even from a couple hundred miles away. Take care.
