Just a Pretty Picture


How lucky am I? I get to look into those big, beautiful, blue eyes every single day!
Sometimes I still feel a great loss over my miscarriage, but when I look at her I can say I am happy with my life. I can't go as far as to say I am glad it happened, but I can say if it hadn't happened I would have never have known what I was missing.
Her hair is very curly right now because of the humidity. The weather has been wonderful lately, with the exception of a few storms. Kale even forgot to roll up a window in the van last night and the passenger seat was very wet this morning. GRR! The rain cleared up and we were able to open it up and let it dry.
We didn't do anything to special for Memorial Day. Lilly had some stuff to do for Girl Scouts that was rained out, at least for us. Jason, Rosy, and Alan arrived home safely from Mexico after driving all night long at about 11am. I went and picked Alan up and kept him all afternoon so they could sleep. They were very appreciative and we had fun playing with him. He got his first tooth on the drive from Mexico, I was actually the first one to spot it.
Kale and the older girls spent the day cleaning out the playroom, tomorrow we will start going through the bags of toys to decide what goes to Goodwill and what stays. Most of it is going.
In other random news I lost 4 pounds last week, YEI for me! We have been walking about every other day, so that helps. My new walking shoes gave me a nice fluid filled blister though. My socks were too low on that foot, so it's no fault of the shoe.
My parents and Lele are in PA, it was their 30th high school reunion. I am a little sad I couldn't go, LIES! I am a lot sad. My grandpa is still not doing well. He has had many surgeries and so far they can't "fix" the problem with his kidneys, so he will have more. His spirits are low and so are my grandmas.
This is the last week of school and it is going to be a busy and short one.
Hope everyone had a good weekend.

Those are big beautiful eyes....and I bet she uses them to get whatever she wants. Emma has already perfected that look...she will ask for something and then give us "the look" and bat her lashes. It works....

Jacki- After Aidan and all of her looks, I can say no to just about anything. She ruined it for her other sisters :P

Thanks to everyone, we think she pretty darn cute but it's nice to have conformation. :)
