So last week was a very uneventful week. We were getting used to having Travis gone all during the days and working full-time again. I know it was an adjustment for me and I'm pretty sure it was an adjustment for Samantha. I think the first couple of days she asked where daddy was about 100 times.

Thursday we swam with Kathryn at her Gigi's house. Both girls used their floaties and we were able to swim for a bit before Blake needed feeding. We didn't get into the pool after that but enjoyed a yummy lunch that Christy and Gigi prepared for us. We ate on Gigi's screened in porch and she had a special table just for the girls. Blake was a trooper and played by himself while we swam but finally gave in and fell asleep during lunch.

Sunday we finally started to feed Blake solids. It didn't go over well at all. He didn't eat much and what we did get in came back out. He also made a few funny faces. We're just going to keep trying it because he's showing all of the signs that he's ready to eat.


We are so thankful that David and Mindi let us borrow their Exersaucer which we got this week. Blake has really enjoyed sitting in it and playing with the toys although I think he wishes it would bounce:)

The kids each had new outfits on Sabbath so we had to take pictures...

What? No mention that it was Mommy's birthday? You are blessed to have such a wonderful family, but then maybe I'm a little prejudice :)
We're wishing we could be there to share your day to day activities with you.

Love,
BeBe and Papa
