Busy weekend!

Maysie and I did a lot of visiting over the weekend! She got to meet "aunt" Jenee and her family. (Maysie has many "aunties" even though I have no sisters, only one sister-in-law). Here she is with Avery, Aunt Jenee's little girl.

We also visited her "Mimi" and "Papa" - more friends with a family titles, I just love having friends like that! They hadn't seen her since Easter. Of course, everyone loves Maysie!!

Maysie saw her first fireworks show! We went out to eat with "Aunt" Dru and "Uncle" Andrew, then to a show; she did so good! She cried on the way there because she was hungry and doesn't always like her car seat, but she just coo'ed and watched during the fireworks. Such a good girl!

More exciting news: My little neice Marley Rae was born at 4:32 am on the 4th!! My sister-in-law was at the birthing center for about 2 hours, had Marley, then went home.......all three of her labors have been so short! There are pics on her website.
Maysie is getting so close to turning over. If it weren't for that pesky arm she'd be rolling all over the house! She like sit when I count to 3 then roll her over; she just smiles so big! She'll get on her belly, then pull her arms and legs up like one of those desert lizards cooling its feet.

She also got to see her dad and sister today, too. Surprised? He's making an effort to reconnect with me (as friends) and establish a relationship with Maysie. I think he feels more free to do so since he is ending his most recent marriage (Only weeks old). She didn't want him to be friends with me, but now he doesn't have to answer to her. I have written a new poem on My Art Closet in his honor......come to think of it, all of my poems have been inspired by his behavior and/ or my recovery from our relationship. From heartache comes art.
I thoroughly enjoyed all of the Maysie time I had this weekend!
I really enjoyed all my Maysie time over the weekend!
