We had a great, relaxing weekend in the city! By looking at our summer calendar that is already full of showers, weddings and a few trips, we figured we should take advantage of this one! Joe's best friend Matt visited on Friday and spent the night - although there wasn't much sleeping since he was coming in when Lucy was getting up. Lucy got a lot of time playing with her 3rd favorite Uncle (behind her two real Uncles who are the best) and judging by her long Saturday nap, I am guessing the playing took a lot out of her!
We took dinner over to our friends' house on Saturday evening so Joe spent the day cooking and his two lovely ladies went out to enjoy the day with the stroller. Our linner (started at 4:30 so maybe it was still lunch?) was great and it we always love visiting with Aaron/Erin (yep, they have the same name so we are hoping they will name their boy Laren to rhyme) so we are offering to bring dinner over to anyone's house who will invite us over!
On Sunday it was daddy/Lucy day while I headed downtown for a day of shopping for some upcoming weddings and parties we have. Their day sounded so much more exciting than mine - lunch at Joe's favorite sandwich shop, taking Miles for walks, lots of playing and some napping in there too. But, someone has to dress this family for all these summer parties, and I can't imagine Joe on Michigan Avenue anytime soon. Plus, the last two times Joe dressed Lucy her pants or shirt were on backwards.
But, we did fit one project in this weekend. After catching Lucy standing in her crib looking over the edge, we dropped her mattress to the bottom. Now, she is officially a big girl in my eyes!
Uncle Matt is so fun!
Where did you come from mom? I was just checking out my sleep sheep down there.
Mom thinks this is the first time I pulled myself up....
