Journey with Julia

Keeping Busy!

Sorry it's been so long since we've posted. It's been a bit busy here and then Ray and I were both sick with Strep last week, (Thank God Julia didn't get it!), and now tonight we are packing for our trip to Maine. All of that, along with playgroup, a quick trip to Tulsa to leave Lacey with the only friends I know that will spoil her more than she already is (thanks Carm!!) and we hit the road tomorrow for Dallas and fly out early Thursday morning. In the mean time, here are a few shots of Julia to keep you all happy til we get some of her with her cousins in Maine. The dog in the shot belongs to my friend Christi from our spouses group and Julia just loved Delilah, she's truly a beautiful dog and very sweet! And since we did have that quick trip to Tulsa it wouldn't be right not to put a picture of Whitney and Sydney holding Julia. They both clamored to take a turn and sure had a lot of fun entertaining her! It'll be nice when we get back from Maine to actually spend a day or so with them as opposed to a couple of hours. Looking forward to that too. :)

Julia's definitely keeping us busy. She's getting stronger every day and now has decided that she likes to climb. She can get onto the couch all by herself and I turned today to find her sitting on the end table just like she belonged there. I have the feeling we're going to have a few bruises, doesn't help that her skin bruises so easily too. She just has to get a little bump and she's instantly turning colors. Poor baby. She's definitely going to be hard to keep up with! More baby proofing is going to have happen when we get back from Maine! LOL. She's doing great though and is such a wonder to be around. People have started commenting how strange it is that she acts so much like Ray and I...too funny...they are referring to how she will take a few minutes to decide about a new person but once she decides then she is very open and happy around them. Guess I didn't realize Ray and I were like that. haha.

Anyways. I got no sleep last night so I really need to get some tonight because tomorrow is going to be very busy!! Wish us luck and those of you in Maine we'll see you very soon!!
