Roll over

Because of Hannah Kate's prematurity, she is behind on her motor skills and trunk strength. We've been working with her to try and help her eventually catch up, so it was pretty exciting when she rolled from front to back a few times today. I managed to record a little on my phone, and since this is also our family journal I wanted to post it. Ignore my high pitched cheering, if it works, it works :).

Hannah Kate

Miss Priss is seven months old today! I'll do a post with all the things she is up to, but for now enjoy a couple pictures. She is getting so big!

Mostly Wordless Wednesday




I love watching Hannah Kate discover new things :)

Remembering Ethan

April 28th was the second anniversary of Ethan's birth. In some ways I can't believe it's been two years since we said goodbye. Has it really been that long since I held him?

Remembering our first born isn't something we do only on his birthday. I can't forget the little one who made me a mother. I may not mention him as much, but it isn't because I don't think about him. In some ways it still feels too painful to talk about, and in other ways I feel like his is so precious to me that I guard those memories. Not the best explanation, but the only way I know how to describe it.

Brian and I hope to always visit the cemetery on his birthday. I know he isn't there, but it's a safe place, and taking care of his grave is the only way we can take care of him. This year we brought Hannah Kate with us. I want her to know about Ethan and how there lives are intertwined.




We love and miss you sweet boy!
