the month of may

Kinda sucks. Not gonna lie.This month started out with an emergency trip back home. We went home on a sunday night after a call that my grandpa, or Papa as we call him, was in the ICU. His COPD was stage 4 and they were keeping him comfortable but it was only a matter of time. He passed away 2 days later on monday. I was lucky enough to be able to be there for him, he got to hear Kaelyn say "papa" (a word she learned just earlier that week) SO between the funeral and the family drama (there was plenty) it was an exhausting week. I had to come home when Jeremy came home (he only got 1 day of bereavement and I got 3) so the two remaining days were spend playing out in the yard with Kaelyn and catching up on the sleep I lost the previous few days.
From there, the next week we had a great visit with our Birth-to-3 ladies, Mary and Natalie. They taught Kaelyn how to climb up the stairs!! She is now a pro! We did it twice yesterday and in the process of trying to get a video, we needed her to do it 2 more times! She slept through the night for the first time in weeks (teething is a stinker! The tooth fairy is being a brat to us, lets just say that much.)

Sorry for the lapse in between posts, but life is crazy, having a toddler getting into EVERYTHING. I'll try to be a little more faithful in posting. in the meantime, here is a link to her video of her crawling up the stairs.

Have a great day!

Lara, Jeremy, and Kaelyn!
