Family Fun Day

In honor of Mother's Day, Rob planned a family fun day for us. He originally planned it for last Friday, but in light of the miscarriage we were going through, that day got postponed to today. Rob doesn't have his French class on Friday so he was home from teaching by 10 this morning and away we went. 

We started out at WonderLab, a science and play space here in Bloomington. It is the perfect place for Liam since it has lots of different things to do - bubbles, air tubes, climbing structures and his favorite, the huge water table. This time, he learned how to put the balls onto the track that shoots them up in a stream of water and down again into a whirlpool. It's hard to describe, but really neat and fun to play in. 


A little blurry from my phone, but you can see how much he loves watching the ball go up 
Busy, busy as usual! 

Outside WonderLab they have a beautiful garden with a pond, walking trails and all kinds of flowers and plants. We surprisingly managed to get Liam to smile for a picture! Lately he has been really adverse to the camera. 




Love my guys
 After WonderLab, we got some lunch at Panera and took a picnic to a park. We've been having gorgeous weather and today was no different. It was so nice to sit in the shade and enjoy lunch together. 

Yum, M&M cookies!

Swinging, just before Liam took a tumble and got a scraped knee, a bonked head and we headed home for naptime. 

After naptime, Rob grilled up a huge steak we had in the freezer (thanks mom and dad B!) and made a salad. It was so nice to have him cook for me! 

Waiting to dive into that steak. 
 We finished off the night with ice cream with friends and bubbles in the backyard. 



In light of everything that has happened this week it was so good to have a full day together as our little family. I really am doing well and am processing the miscarriage. It's hard, but God is good and I'm so thankful to have the family that we do.
