first camping trip of the year...

We all had such a good time this weekend on our first camping trip of the year! We went with our good friends Jeff and Helene and their baby girl who is just about 5 1/2 mo younger than Lenah. We left Friday night and I think we all agree that we wish it was longer! There is just something about camping, you have to relax! It's so nice.

Lenah loved it. She loved being outside and crawling around everywhere. She puts everything in her mouth so we really had to watch her. But it was fun! She didn't sleep the best, I think it was a combo of her ears bugging her, her cold and the fact that it was a little chilly out too. But she was still a very good girl despite that, and we couldnt expect her to do much better than that!

Sorry about the picture overload, I just had so many cute ones. :)

On a whole different note, Lenah has her tubes put in on weds. morning (not sure of the time yet, I'm hoping they call tomm.) As a mommy I am soooooo ready to see my girl perk up and feel so much better, as is her daddy. But there is also that nagging in the back of my mind of something not going quite right. I try not to think or worry about it because I'm sure all will be well and we are already sending up the prayers for her that day, but as parents I think it's our duty to worry! So if you think of it send up a prayer for her, the Dr's, and mom and dad. As minor of a surgery as it is prayers are still appreciated! :)

check out the next 2 pictures. They were taken at the same park on the same bench. the bottom of the 2 was taken last sept. and the top this weekend. Look how much Lenah has grown already in just less than a year!!!!!  We are so blessed!
