Spring Firsts & such

It's official LeAnne has been apart of her first campfire at Clear water Springs with the H***** tribe). We had a cook out with them on May 2nd. LeAnne was busy staring at her Uncle's (Greg & Stan) She also got to sit on her first big horse that night. She sat in the saddle with S*****and her mare. LeAnne also attended her first Dayton Garage sale event. Uncle Greg gave mama a break and had a blast pushing the stroller. Mama had a few great finds -- a couple of toys and a grab bag of baby proofing essentials. Oh can't forget that last week Auntie Kim put baby in the tall grass on her belly -- EEKS not in the face. Auntie also gave her a drink of water from a couple and LeAnne sat in a big kids high chair at a restaurant for the first time. I don't think I've told ya'll either that she's ventured over to eating veggies now. So far baby food wise she's eaten pears, apples, applesauce, peaches, bananas, squash, prunes, sweet potatoes and carrots. She loves bananas and loves her veggies. She's not good at eating her Oatmeal so I experimented a bit and may have found the ticket. She likes her oatmeal mixed with juice not milk. Watching LeAnne experience her firsts is awesome, such a cool blessing and I feel like I am seeing through brand new eyes. We had a blast with Uncle Greg and Aunt Crescent visiting. Thank-you two so much for spoling mama a bit. My lawn looks awesome Greg!!! It's so much fun watching you two with LeAnne. My prayer for you is you'll have your own lil ones when YOU TWO are ready. The best piece of advice I was given when LeAnne was little -- Do what is right for your family and don't feel pressured by others! Grandma Marcia is coming for a visit this week and then we will go back to Renton to stay with her for a week. Then the count down is on for daddy to come home! John is doing SUPER in school. He's working hard and as of Friday he's #1 in the class. He's headed into a tough week of studies -- It's law week -- he's been studying this weekend to get a jump start. I know he'd appreciate your thoughts and prayers for this week. We miss him so much around here! Let's about all from our neck of the woods. Love ya'll!!
