April Update

As I sit here listening to it rain, yet AGAIN, I realized it had been almost a month since I had posted anything. I know, I know, bad Laura. It has been a busy month. So much has happened in the last 20 days I don't know where to start. Juliet hosted her first bridal shower on the 18th and it was a huge success, well except that it rained so much the guests were flooded into the neighborhood. We had fun though. Something new is that she will lay on her tummy and scoot all the way around her play mat. She wants so bad to be mobile, but it is not happening fast enough for her. So she gets mad and rolls over. She reached her little arms out to hug me on Thursday the 23rd and to give me big, sloppy, open mouth kisses. It was great! Then when we picked her up from school on Friday the 24th I rode in the back with her and I started laughing and so did she, not those little laughs she does, real laughs. It was precious, but by the time I got the camera she puckered up and refused to even smile. It will happen. We went to Dallas this weekend for Uncle Craig's sister Lauren's wedding. She was a beautiful bride. We ended up leaving at 7 Friday night and since that is Miss Juliet's bedtime she slept the whole way to Frisco. Sunday was not as easy, but we had a first successful road trip. I think she really enjoyed watching the kids play. Sarah helped us by keeping Juliet while we went to the wedding. We would have been miserable if we would have had to deal with her. Especially since it was an evening wedding! Juliet got to play on the swing set in the back yard for the first time. She looked so big sitting in Gramma Sarah's lap with the other kids playing around her. We are starting to hear M and B sounds, of course they make no sense yet. But she talks to us anyway. Well love to all, I am going to bed early tonight. More as it happens!
