first week

Here is a little glimpse of our first week of residency. David has come home everyday saying how glad how glad he is to be here. The people here really do make the program, so that has been a big part of our week...spending time with the other residents and and getting to know their families.

Monday night started with a welcome to Waco picnic for all the residents, first through third years.

They grilled hamburgers and had a jumpy house and a waterside for the big kids.

David wasn't quite up to going down the water slide with his hurt foot, so Dr. Jackson stepped up to let Owen have his turn down the slide.

Owen is a fan of Henry. It really is such a small world we live in...we both went to college with Henry at Auburn. Who would have guessed we would end up in Waco, Tx for residency together? 

It really is nice to have someone who understands where home is and to watch Auburn football with during the fall. Not to mention, Henry and his wife Stephanie live only a couple of streets over from us.

While Daddy was at work, we colored

watched the tractors working near our house

and went to the splash park near our house.

Thursday night, Dr. Hardin invited the new residents to his home for dinner.

 Glenna, the coolest residency program coordinator, arrived in style.

It was great to get to sit back and get to know everyone.

And let the little ones run around.

All of the kids in the program are boys...I think these little guys are going to have fun together the next 3 years.

It's funny, because Owen is by far the oldest...and I don't think of Owen being old at anything. These little guys are 12 months and 14 months old.

 Owen is having fun making friends. Meet one of his new favorites, Ms. Stephanie (Henry's wife).

.

She was kind enough to invite Owen and I over for lunch one day this week.

After all that fun, we got home Thursday night to find our neighbor, Paul has made homemade egg rolls for us!

Owen was a HUGE  fan of the egg rolls. I think he consumed 3!

And how are they Owen?

"Good". And that is just how are first week was...good.
