It was a fun weekend celebrating Jeff's first Father's Day. His parents flew in to celebrate and spend time with us. We just enjoyed hanging out and watching Claire be her happy little self. They got to see her walking in action. I can't figure out how to upload a video yet but it is true! She took her first real steps about a week ago! So glad we were home to see it! Anyway, we enjoyed some time at Aldridge Gardens where Claire wanted play ball and push her stroller around. It was pretty hot so we went to the Hoover Rec Center to let her take a dip in the pool - in preparation for her upcoming first trip to the beach. Later she napped and so did I, while daddy and Granddaddy put together our new porch swing. It swings very nicely and we can enjoy the quietness of our deck in the evenings now. Part of Jeff's Father's Day gift was dinner at Ghengis Grill. Unique dining! You know you will like what you get! Sunday we all went to church and had a nice lunch. We gave Jeff cards and a ice chest on wheels. He felt loved! :)) Jeff is a wonderful husband and father! He is so protective of us and I love watching him with Claire. He soaks her up and will be a strong guide for her. So glad he's the father of my daughter! It's so neat to see how even a 10 month old adores her daddy!
To Jim, I say thank you for being a wonderful father to Jeff. I am reaping the benefits of the example you set for him and your strong guidance for him. To my dad, I say THANK YOU for who you are and how you care for me and my family. You are consistent and committed and I appreciate you! And finally to my brother, Robert, one of the most dedicated fathers you'll ever meet - He is all about his wife and kids! "There ain't noooo doubt about it!" It's not easy being a dad these days! You men are incredible!
