(I'm 18 1/2 weeks along here)
Last week we travelled to Chicago for a celebration-filled weekend with the David's. We really packed a lot in just 2 days...it started off with a Friday night dinner at Melanie and David's, then Saturday morning was Carson's First Communion, followed by a surprise engagement party for Mike and Mandi that evening, then Mother's Day on Sunday. It sounds crazy but for me it was really relaxing because Jack was fully entertained by his cousins - Samantha, Carson and Sophia. They adore Jack and the feeling is mutual so the kids played together all weekend which meant that mommy could nap, relax and enjoy adult conversation!
We stayed at Melanie and David's in Batavia which is awesome because she has EVERYTHING...kid-friendly food, sippy cups, pack n play and of course toys, toys and more toys! We barely had to pack anything. And Jack was in heaven playing with his cousins and their fun toys. I mean, the kid had a ball and literally played non-stop ALL WEEKEND! He especially loved playing with Carson, who is 7 1/2. Jack was his little shadow all weekend - it was adorable. Jack talks about them all the time and I know he misses them all.
For some reason, the camera didn't make it out of my bag much of the time, but I did manage to snap a few cute shots of Jack with the David Clan.
Jack gearing up for a little basketball action...
Getting a lift from dad (who looks a little pained from lifting 36 lbs of baby over his head)...
Jack was trying so hard to play like the big kids and dribble the ball....
With cousins Sophie and Carson...
The newly engaged couple Mike and Mandi. They look adorable - I wish Jack had cracked a smile...
Great picture with Aunt Dani...
Getting lots of love from Aunt Melanie and cousin Sami...
Jack and Carson - now that's true love!
