Long overdue update!

It has been almost a month since I've had a new post, so I am really behind!  I hope you have plenty of time to read this.  :)  First of all, we had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend.  My sister, Mandy, and Jeremy's parents came up and stayed Friday through Sunday, and Mom and Dad came up Sunday and left Tuesday.  It was really special to have everyone there as I celebrated my first Mother's Day as a mother, but also because we had Cora Leigh's baby dedication that Sunday.  We had a wonderful visit with everyone.

Cora turned 8-months old on May 16th!  I cannot believe what a big girl she is already.  She's doing really well with solid foods now.  We're actually about to start stage 2's.  She also rolls all the time.  There for a while, we didn't think she was ever going to roll - particularly from her back to her stomach!  Now she rolls onto her stomach almost immediately when we lay her on her back.  This does include sleep time, though her mommy and daddy wish that it didn't.  Though I can't blame her, I would much prefer to sleep on my stomach. 

Last week, Cora Leigh and I went on a road trip to Tennessee to spend some time with my best friend, Brooke, and her baby girl, Jillian, who was born on May 5th.  We really enjoyed getting to meet little Jillian and spending some quality time with Brooke.  I can't hardly remember when Cora was that small!  They do grow quickly...

Rather than trying to update all the pictures from the last month, I thought it would be easier to provide a link to my facebook photo album.  I hope you enjoy these pictures!
