1st Mother's Day






We enjoyed a great first Mother's Day yesterday! It was also Baby Dedication day at church. She received her first baby's Bible from the Children's Department. We got through it with no screaming or talking for the most part. She gave me my favorite red roses for Mother's Day and a card the size of her! Here's a picture of the 3 of us that morning and then MC later that afternoon. I also put 2 more pics from Jack's birthday party. Thanks, Carly!




She spent Saturday in Vicksburg with my mom and my grandmother at a mother/daughter brunch. I had to work so I hated to miss having 4 generations together at once. She got 2 more teeth over the last few days (we have 4 total now) and I think she's getting her front ones now. She's been really cranky lately. She's also up to 4 steps at a time! She just amazes me everyday!


Matt's grandfather is still in the hospital in Laurel. They removed a mass and some lymph nodes and it all came back positive for colon cancer. They aren't sure how they are going to treat it at this time because of his age (86). He's very agitated and confused. Keep him in your prayers. My grandfather also had surgery a few weeks ago, and he is just being stubborn. He had a vein removed from his leg and he refuses to walk. We're praying for my grandmother who has to put up with him! :)

Glad you guys had a great mother's day and baby dedication. Grannie told us all about what was going on with your crew on mother's day. Wish we could have seen you all this weekend. Just not enough time on a weekend. Aaron was interested in the two girls in your last post, so I had to try to make him understand those were his cousins. He had lots of questions! I enjoy keeping up with your blog. Tell Matt hello for me.
