Memorial Day Weekend

It is Memorial Day weekend! How did this come up so fast?! Just last week, didn't I give birth to my beautiful fourth child?! No!? Okay, so it is almost 6 weeks since then...but how the time has flown!

Next week I will be back with pictures to update you on my wee girlie :-) She is doing well, jaundice is all gone and her sweet cheeks are so chubby now. She does seem to have come down with a little cold and I hope it will not get any worse. She is eating and acting as usual, so I think she will be fine.

Well, today I will be off to see my Mom for a belated Mother's Day outing. Every year we go out, but it was delayed this time because of giving birth and my parents moving to a new place. She hasn't seen Rowan since she was born, so I think she will enjoy that. The older girls will spend the night tonight and Dan and I will enjoy an evening with just our littlest kiddos and finally watching Fireproof.

Monday we will be going with Dan's family to a cemetery to remember a grandparent and other veterans that have fought and/or died for our country. This is something his family has done for many years and we've been doing it as we can for the last few. Afterwards we will head to his Grandfather's house for lunch. I think it will be a nice time and what makes it even better is that Dan will be with us this year :-)

I pray you all have a very lovely weekend! See you next week!

Blessings,
Sommer

All of my girls had jaundice too. It was so hard to keep them awake to nurse! Have a great weekend!

I hope you had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend! It sounds like you had some lovely plans. I hope little Rowan is over her cold!

Little David had jaundice when he was very small, and my baby sister was sent home with a little "suitcase" light she had to lie under most of the time. I'm glad Rowan is over hers! I can't wait to see pictures!!! :)
