a sweet day

it's always a sweet day when we go visit damaw at the courthouse (or jody's big house as ben calls it). so sweet today, the kiddos had a sucker in each hand.
jody, we missed you today!


we went & played at the petersburg park. that town has a great park for kids i must say. lots of space to run, lots of slides, lots of swings, lots of climbing stuff. just lots of fun!
gracie flashing the peace sign.
giddy up!

ben is a bit apprehensive about slides.
going.....
almost there...
made it!!!!

i love these pictures of my baby girl trying to climb up the big slide. (she would have too, if i would let her). gracie climbing reminded me of miss kingsley, ready to climb mountains!

i just love her dirty little face with her hair in her eyes.

on a side note... we are in the process of weaning miss g from nursing & it so hurts! both my chest & my heart hurt to hear her cry. i am just ready to be done. she's almost 2 & momma's ready to call it quits. i never even planned to nurse for this long, she just still seems so little to me. last night was the first night i haven't nursed her to sleep (besides when namaw & poppy have watched her a few times). it wasn't too bad; about an hour of begging & crying. hopefully tonight will go better.
i hope everyone is having a great week! radiation again for pap tomorrow, so another road trip for us. looking forward to a long weekend of camping out (in namaw & poppy's yard), fishing, and hanging out with family and friends.

Oh I love the pillow case dress! Good luck with weaning, it's wonderful you nursed her so long!!

thanks! i would longer, but need to switch antideppressants & do not want to nurse her on the new one. so, as i wean myself off the zoloft, i must wean her as well.
