first of all... we had an amazing time in pittsburgh, pa this past weekend, celebrating the
NEW Mr. & Mrs. Scott Fleming... it was a beautiful wedding down to the every little detail & homemade cookies, mmmmm, i'm just bummed i didn't fill about 10 boxes full of these tasty treats and try to stick them in my luggage. amazing adventure, beautiful couple, so blessed to be able to share in such a special day. thank you scott & katie! i have lots of pictures to post, but ...
we are at the beach... well, almost all of us... not daddy, he has to work, but the girls are, and we are excited, but secretly we keep hoping daddy will walk through the door & tell us he took a surprise vacation to come play with us in the sand... anyway, i am still trying to get pictures off my Big Girl Camera, and my normal camera gave its last click/thank goodness for the new one/ but we are working off only grandma's camera so it may take a day or two to get things rolling. plus, we dont have a macbook since Miss F stepped on it and cracked the screen all the way to a $800 + repair & since you can't see anything its sort of a flop until we have enough spare pocket cash to replace it for such adventures as these... thus, no fancy beach movies for anyone (esp.daddy, which makes me sad). i am currently posting of pop's old work computer & if i was so lucky as to find some sort of media mixer than, well, i would be shocked... bottom line - lots of pics to post, and more to come
but onto the AMAZING news
Isabelle is crawling.... what?! yup! she is 5months old & crawling, and yes, we have lots of proof, no it isn't a sort of caterpiller crawl its the real deal, & no it isn't slow and cute, its fast and with some serious purpose... her great motivator: anything... toys, food. faith's stuff. chair legs, anything.
today it was sand.
Isabelle met the sand and the ocean today & loved it (could it be the fact she falls asleep to the 'ocean' setting on our sleep lamb? maybe) but she just loved the sand between her toes and got on all fours, raking it between her fingers... then, in one swift motion shoved a whole fistful in her mouth... ya, that's when i stepped in for some improptu nursing to help wash things out after water wasn't really working.
lots going on, lots to share, lots more coming.... miss you all, but this is our beach therapy, our vacation, our time, its not perfect because my best friend, my love, their daddy isn't here, but its just how it is right now, so we are doing all that he would want us to do, enjoying it & talking about him non-stop :)
WE LOVE YOU!!!PS---> tell me about
your craziest nursing experience... i had to pull one tricky manuever to nurse isabelle the other day, and i would love to see what some of you have had to do in the past just to get things done & feed your beautiful babes! i'll post later this week with my story and soem of my favorites, let's see if any of you have a story as crazy, or crazier than mine!
