What a weekend!



We had a full day today!  Nanny and Grandpa came in to visit last night, we were so excited to spend time with them for a little while since we have been gone and haven't been able to see them as much.  Last night I was fortunate enough to spend several hours with three of my closest friends, Brandy, Jessica, and Tracy.  I enjoy spending time with just the four of us and catching up without kids and husbands, we always have a great time together and have such a strong friendship allowing us to talk about anything and everything.  I look forward to raising our kids together, we've already had a good start, and many more talks on the porch, no matter whose porch it is!  lol

We woke up this morning at 7am, which is very late for us, we were so excited everyone slept in.  We ate breakfast and headed to Glencarin Gardens for a photo session with Kelli, Red K Photography.  We got some great shots and had some wonderful ice cream, I know it was only 9:30am, afterwards.  Nanny and Grandpa left at nap time.

After all four of us had a great nap Delaney and I headed to a birthday party for Taylor Warren, she's already 1, I can't believe it!

Blake and Daddy went on to the Sunday School party at David and Pam's house, Delaney and I were only about an hour late.  We had a big water slide for the kids, which Delaney jumped right on!
It took Blake a while to get warmed up to it.  Delaney went down with me once and then went down with some of the big girls instead of me, I kept going though, it was fun!  Too bad the other adults didn't have a kid to have to go with to give them an excuse to go down, they sure missed out!  Blake finally went down after knowing that Delaney did, but I had to stick close for a while, after 4-5 times, he was off and without mom's help!  Go Blake!  We had a great dinner together, a shower for Wes and Carrie, and great conversation.  We are all headed on a marriage retreat with church late September, I can't wait, it gave us a great taste of what's to come!
We were excited to get back to church on Sunday morning, since we have missed a few weeks, well, all of us but Delaney who cried off and on all throughout being in nursery.  She did say Leslie and Max though, two of her Sunday School teacher's names!  She spent the last 15 minutes in my class though.  Hopefully school starting soon will help with her attachment issues she's had about a month now with mommy.
After church I joined the girls again, well, Tracy and Jess, to see The Help, a new release movie based on the book that I read this summer.  It was great!  We finished the day with some afternoon and evening family time running errands and playing with each other in the floor, some favorite moments now!

A beautiful Sunday afternoon (Superbowl Sunday to be exact)

I love my babies so much.  Having a great picture of the three of us that isn't just a self-portrait is priceless!  Thanks to Chris and Jen Hunt for taking these amazing pictures.  www.jenpluschris.com 
Notice the rosy cheeks, it was starting to get a little cold out.  Blake is smiling, wow, that is a rare thing when a camera is in front of him.  He gets "stage fright" easy.  Such a sensitive little guy with a HUGE heart!  He cares so much about his sister he cries when she's sad, hurt, or in trouble.  I wonder how long that will last?
A picture speaks 1000 words!
