The Adventures of Mary Laine (Part 2)

Well, I don't have any pictures to post, but if I get some, I'll go back and add them later. We are so so thankful to family and friends who have been helping out with Mary Laine while I have been on bedrest. At the end of August, Gary took Mary Laine to Knoxville, TN to stay with his sister, Catherine, and family. I wasn't sure how Mary Laine would do away from us for so long, but quickly found out that we were "out of sight, out of mind"! She had a blast playing with her cousins Ainsley, Emma, and Gabby. In fact, Gabby is only four months older than Mary Laine, so it was a great chance for those two to bond with each other. And a huge, huge thanks to Catherine who took on another small child. I can't imagine how chaotic life must have been for the Focas that week!

The week consisted of a birthday party, playtime, dance time, Tatarus (a great gymnastics place that is open for children to come and play during the day), and lots and lots of sweet bonding time with her cousins and Aunt Catherine and Uncle Chris. Thanks again, Focas! We can't wait to get together again once baby boy is here!!
