It was a long week.

It was obviously a long week when I forget to actually write the blog after I title it!

It started out with a Colts loss to Chicago. Sad, yes. But we were stylin' in our jerseys! I am going to show Abby with her cousin Kari. (Abby's the littlest one!)

After that unfortunate game, we got to deal with Abby's first illness and first doctor's appointment while she was sick. Turns out she had gastroenteritis. Not uncommon for her age. She likes to bring everything to her mouth and see what it tastes like. She got to drink some wonderful unflavored Pedialyte. (It's awful, I tasted it to see.) So, that was fun.

BUT, we ended it with a Colts win (and power outage.) Nevertheless, here's a much more victorious pair of Colts fans!

We look forward to seeing everyone as soon as we can.

Love,

Kate and Abby

It's finally Friday!

I have worked my three day workweek and I am beat! Marikay, our wonderful babysitter, needed most of the day off, so Mom Journay was more than happy to come down and watch Abby for us. (I'm pretty sure I didn't need to twist Mom's arm to come down!) Apparently, the child is a Grandma magnet, because MY mom stopped by and stayed for a few hours. Our child was blessed to get to spend some time with both of her grandmas. (Thanks, Grandpas for letting them come up/down.) We are staying around here this weekend, but I am hoping to get some good pictures of Abby. I'll post some of them soon. Love to you all,

Kate

Starting a Blog

I decided that since my little cousin, Casey, could start a blog (let alone maintain it), surely I could as well. Here goes:

We have been experiencing life from a new angle since April 12 brought us our adorable Abby. She was early, but she has made up for it. She was born weighing 5 pounds, 7 ounces. Nearly 5 months later: 16 pounds. Preemie? I think not.

The cry face is the same! (Five months difference.)

Anyway, since all of the grandparents and most of the extended family does not get to see Abby that much, I decided to bring Abby to them. Hence, Life According to Journay. It may not be overly that exciting, but that's life.

This weekend, we had the opportunity to see gGrandparents Miller and Journay. I was not as quick on the ball to get pics with gGrandparents Journay, but here are a few from the Miller side.
