We spent a wonderful weekend with my sister and her family this weekend. We walked, talked, shopped, played...we even squeezed in a movie for the adults. It has been a while since Cory and I have been able to have a little time together. It was nice.

Liv is officially 6 months old already! Big blue eye is cute as ever. She is very active (understatement). She loves to move. She works hard at it. She gets especially excited and motivated to get close to newspaper/magazines. I am not really sure what gets her so geared up but she kicks her feet fast to get momentum built up to propel herself forward. And when she actually reaches her goal... and it gets taken away from her there are repercussions. I'd be a little torqued too. Tonight she actually had lifted her whole body up as if she was doing a push up and held it for several seconds. Grace was thrilled for Livie. She is one of her biggest fans:)

The last 6 months have really flown by. The last 6 months have been some of the most beautiful months. I am thankful for them. These months have also served as a great distraction to the saddness that lingers. We don't have much time to reflect on the grief now. Things move at such a fast pace. Having 3 kids keeps a family busy on many levels. Having 2 kids in a plethera of activities also exhausts our free time. In June, like a ton of other families, we are booked every day. Granted we signed up for all of these activities and the kids really love it, so we have no one to blame but ourselves:) We are doing Babe Ruth baseball, Big Bopper baseball, Tae Kwon Do, golf, hockey camp (a month long!), 1 mini family vacation, 1 couples golf weekend and *sigh* it will be July.
