Porter and I spent the weekend with Grandma Foley in Cedar Rapids and were fortunate enough to see Aunt Julie and Sam every day too! Mom seems to be recovering really well from her hip-replacement surgery!!!
7 Months old this weekend!
Since we were with Grandma we didn't get to spend all of Father's day with Steve, but Porter did start saying 'Da-Da' on cue to mark his first official word on Father's day! We recorded it and sent it off to him Dad that morning - Great present:) As I said in a previous post he has been big on the 'La-la-la-la' (which Aunt Julie took full credit for). I also noticed himsaying a quiet whisper 'T' repeatedly. There will be no stopping him soon!
I thought of Dad fondly many times on Father's Day, but sadness hadn't really been a part of it until Porter Sam and I took a walk around the neighborhood, which is something we often did during family gatherings and something I think Dad really enjoyed. I wished he was with us...and then I remembered he was :)

He still is.
I hope you keep this blog up. Facebook just doesn't cut it - it's like reading little scraps of paper of the lives of people that you mostly don't know - but the pictures are OK.
