the rosier rundown: Our Weekend in MD

Last weekend, we drove up to MD for a 48-hour visit. On Friday afternoon, we went to GG and Max's house where Grandma and Pop Pop met us for dinner. We played in the playroom at their complex and ate a delicious meal.

We woke up early Saturday morning for a little breakfast and coloring before Gavin, Wes, Pax, and I went over to Steph and Tony's and Miss Vivian stayed at GG and Max's house all day. You see, the main reason we went up to MD was so Wes, Tony, and Gavin could go to the DC Auto Show. But it was a MAJOR bonus that we got to see so many other people in the process.

Okay so, like I said, G, W, P, and I went over to Steph and Tony's. Wes immediately took Baby Nick and started using his baby-whispering skills to put him right to sleep. After getting his baby fix, G, T, and W went to the Auto Show. For the entire day.

Our kids really love Steph & Tony's dog, Pixie.

Through out the day, my mom sent me pictures of Vivian. This was the first one.
Apparently, she didn't miss us very much.

Back to Steph and Tony's house. Gavin was in love with Nick, too. He just loves babies.

Okay, so since each child did completely separate activities on Saturday, I'll split the rest of this post three ways. Let's start with Paxton.

Pax and I enjoyed the day at Steph's with her and baby Nick. Pax and Nick both took very long naps and Steph and I got to chat and gossip and Pinterest and Facebook and gossip and eat and watch TV and gossip all day. It was a very nice relaxing day (which I don't get very many of). When the kiddos were awake, Paxton enjoyed chasing after their dog, Pixie, crawling around the entire house, standing up to look out the window, and climbing the steps (over and over again).

We also did a mini photo shoot (of course we did) of Nick for his one month birthday. Let me just say that Nicholas is precious and Steph and Tony are doing a phenomenal job with him. He is happy and healthy and adorable.

This one is my favorite of the bunch:

Oh, and I love this one, too.

Gavin's day was very different from Paxton's. Gavin drove down to DC with Wes and Tony for the annual DC Auto show. Wes absolutely loves going to the Auto Show and this was the first year that he brought Gavin along. Let's just say that Gavin had a TON of fun and Tony and Wes got a work out chasing him around.

Here's our little angel going under the ropes and
crawling on stuff he shouldn't be crawling on.
Oh yeah, and that's just a $380,000 car next to him.

Vivian got to spend some quality time with GG and Max at their apartment. And from what I hear, they had a great time. They did some craft projects, ate a ton of pancakes, played in the playroom, read stories, watched a few shows, and played computer games.

We slept over at GG and Max's house on Saturday night. We all woke up Sunday morning and went over to Grandma Ne-Ne's for brunch. Grandma and Pop Pop met us there.
