Sunday on Vacation

We got up early for Mass. We said our goodbyes, had breakfast at our ol' standby L. George's. We were surprised to find out our good friends the Bako's had paid for our breakfast. And then to receive another gift from our good friends the Hipps, with some travel money to go home, which actually paid for our hotel room at Lake Michigan.

Because our 20th Anniversary is this month we drove to Grand Rapids after Mass for a little visit to the lake. It holds special meaning. We went to Lake Michigan on our 10th wedding anniversary and again after my dad died. It was Michael's birthday too,

If I had to do it again, honestly I might have wished to spend more time at the lake, but I'm appreciative for what I got. It was an odd day, foggy. But we sure had a great day. Then off to the hotel for rest and the very long ride home...

Tony's Milestones

Newborn-baptism with Doug and Beth Hipps as godparents 2 weeks-first bath 1 month-loves to sleep with Mommy 2 months--smiles big and happily finally nursing well 5month says Mama and Dada the following week 5 months-6months he sits, a little with help and finally without, but we still have to be careful--he pulls himself back 6 months, sleeps 9-5am about once/twice a week, but wakes up just to nurse the rest of the time and goes back to sleep. 6months sleeps in his own bed majority of the time. 6months finally likes tummy time and inch worms 6mo does a crazy shake rattle and roll when he's excited...all hyper like, so cute! 7mo waves, reaches to be picked up, says "Hi" and is eating table food-he prefers to feed himself. 8mo. Saying Dada and getting on his knees rocking back and forth. Loves to eat. Says MMMM--ama! and signs when he wants to eat with his hand to his mouth. 9mo. Tony crawls, waves and claps. 10mo. Tony pulls himself to stand, gets his first tooth. Very happy to be able to go, go, go. Sleeps in the boys room now. At 11mo tony is like a rhino...charge! This week its been Mommy, Mommy, Mommy...have to admit...I love hearing him say it.

Milestones

Rosa 4 months says Mama
5 months says Dada
6 months sits unaided, laughs, plays with toys and watches Play with me Sesame.
Jackie bathes her, Carolyn sings to her, Katelyn rocks her and the little kids love to play with her. She's a Mama's girl right now and may be teething.
7 months Rosa reaches for her own toys and plays so nicely on her own
8 months Rosa is beginning to crawl and has her first tooth!
9 months has her second tooth. She crawls everywhere, talks...today she said "I did it", she chases the vacuum cleaner, cruises along furniture and even lifts her leg over a ride on toy and got on.
