Good Things

Here's Adam and I at the lake on his first Father's Day. It was a fun day. Jessica, Adam's sister got access to someone's house /private lake and beach who was out of town. So we joined her family and Adam's parents for some swimming and a cookout. This was actually the place that Adam got baptized (before we met), and I'd never been there before. It was nice, but nerve-racking to be in a swimsuit. I still look like I have a little beer belly. The massive amounts of Dr. Pepper I've been drinking to help cope isn't helping that go away. :)

And I also wanted to post a picture of my friend Audra, who's been really great through all this too. It's been hard to spend a lot of time with her because she has a 7 month old, Reid. But she's been understanding. She's good for me because she calls me out when I'm being dumb about stuff. I appreciate that. Sometimes. :) We both have a little bit of a hard time being sentimental around each other, so I'm able to talk with her about things in a matter-of-fact way, which is nice sometimes.

And, a little bit of a milestone today. I held a baby today without crying or even feeling sad! She was 1 1/2, so I still might have to work up to being able to hold younger ones, but it was really good. She was at the studio for a photo shoot with Lindsey and she kept coming in the office to see me, she wanted up on my lap, so I picked her up and she drew me a picture and played with my calculator and was super cute! It's crazy because about a week ago, I was freaking myself out with the thought of having to hold a friend's baby that we were going to hang out with. I almost started crying just thinking about it. It seems minor, but I was really happy... I'm hopefully making progress. :)
