funk

 Isn't this the coolest picture?  This is from the eclipse on the 20th of May.  The shadows made through the trees was by far the highlight of the whole experience.  Amazing and breathtaking, truly.  What an awesome experience!

 I loooove this picture.  Wade was wearing Aunt Jami's girls' hat (with Ariel the mermaid), but kindly turned it inside out before placing it upon Wade's head.  He may have minded having a Disney princess on his head, he may have not!  But for the pictures' sake, I'm glad red-head, Ariel, wasn't stealing the show, because my little man can steal his own show.

 Hopefully P won't look at the blog before father's day but I got this picture printed for him.  Precious.

 Look at that face.  He has the funniest facial expressions!  It's like a smoulder/scowl.  He does another where he tips his chin toward his chest, and his eyes look up through his eyebrows as he stares at something/someone intently.  The best is when he does it to his cousin, Ella.

We are surviving, barely, without Perris.  Am I dramatic, or what?!  We have really kept busy and people are inviting us places and looking out for us, which I really appreciate (and am starting to see better, instead of complaining that no one wants to be my friend.  Seriously, Ali, open your eyes and see all of the hands reaching out to you.  Blind eyes.  To this I was referring to above as my ingratitude.)  Thus, I am stepping out of my funk.

Mr. Wade, in some exciting news, is taking steps all on his own!!  Sometimes I'll see him in the corner of my eye taking a few steps forward, then dropping to his knees and crawling quickly away.  If he's in a good mood he'll practice walking towards me...if he doesn't want to he'll make his body all jell-o like as I try to put him on his feet and melt onto the floor.  Talk about dramatic.  It is quite hilarious.

Here's to a busy and grateful and happy week to all!!
