Fun Family weekend


This past weekend James and Tracey came up to visit and go to a family wedding and because my sister-in-law graduated from law school(yippee). We had such a fun and working weekend. They helped us mow the lawn and get lots of little stuff done around the house. The wedding was very beautiful, it was outdoors and it was a perfect day!

They had horses and the kids got to feed them. It was also very nice to see some of the family we had not seen for a long time and some of them had not even met Lucy yet. Miles love the horses and was saying "neigh neigh" to them. He kept asking if he could ride, I'm assuming he has seen someone ride one before because he has never asked to ride on any other animal.

Lucy likes to dance, she walked right out there on the dance floor and put her arms in the air and rocked back and forth, I have no idea why I did not get this on video, it was very cute. she also got to dance with her poppy and moppy. Miles did not think dancing was a very good idea and preferred to stick close to us in hopes for more cake:)

Miles got to take many rides in poppies truck, and now anywhere we go if he sees a black truck, he gets excited and points to it saying "poppy truck" "me". We were very sad to see them go, but we will be spending lots of time with them this summer because Micah is getting married, we are soooooo excited for her!!!!!

First concussion


So the Stewart's are pretty competitive by nature and Lucy was not about to be outdone, she decided to be the first and probably the youngest Stewart to have a concussion. And luckily her nose is not broken, just possibly deviated, but its to swollen to find out so we will have to go back in a few days. What happened....... We had a fun morning playing outside at our new house, it's only the second time we have been able to play in the backyard since moving, she ran, not walked over to the hill(pretty steep for a little one) and stepped right down the flight of stairs that goes down the hill. She hit her nose on the second step and landed at the bottom on her little head:( My poor baby, she was barely phased at all, a little crying and then she was fine. Flirting and waving and giving high fives to every nurse and doctor she could. They said to me "are you sure she is hurt, she is so happy" She is recovering well and enjoying all the extra attention. Miles was so sweet when he saw that she was hurt, I had to herd them inside and tend to her and he ran into our room and brought us a large piece of gauze and a band aid, and ran to her saying "boo bo" he prayed for her and everything, it was very sweet to see such a compassionate gift flow from Miles.
