The Here and Now

So many things have happened since April 25th and I haven't even posted pics from DG's First Holy Communion.
The week after the sacraments was busy. Grandma and Grandpa left on Tuesday morning and my parents took the kids on Tuesday afternoon. Wednesday the kids had co-op in the morning. By the time Thursday rolled around, I was wondering where my week had gone. Friday, we went over to KJ's Godparents' house to watch their kids while they went to an OB appointment. The first week of May we spent mostly at their house (and we started back to school) as our new Godson was born on Tuesday, May 4th. Welcome Daniel! I can't wait to hold him more.
This week has been busy too. Monday -- just school, Tuesday Blake's birthday (cook-out at my parents'), Wednesday KJ's 2 month appointment (stats below) and lunch with my college roommate who I haven't seen in 15 years (I wish I had taken my camera but we will do it again), Thursday--school and Cub scouts, and today school and May Crowning (and who had the honor of Crowning Mary -- RA of course).
So KJ is 9 lbs. 15 oz (I predicted 10 lbs.) which puts her at 14%. She is 22.5 inches long so that would be the 35% and her head is a mere 15.25 inches at 32%. She is little for a Helgoth!














The homeschool group for the diocese hosted a May Crowning at a local parish (the one my parent's were married at, Blake was baptized at and my Grandparents live a block from). They drew names for who would crown Mary. RA got the honor. So after many nights of "How many days till Friday?" We drove down to Holy Trinity practicing Marian hymns all the way. Below are some pics.
