This past weekend my dad was away on a mission trip, so Josh, Liam, Polly and I packed up the car and headed out for a long weekend away with Grammy. This was our first "vacation" since Liam was born and our first time away from the routine of our house so we were a little nervous to say the least. Five days away and you would have thought by the looks of our car that we were staying for a few months....you just never know what you might need when Liam is having a melt-down!
My parents have a pool, so we treated this like a real vacation with lots of pool time (or as much as you can get with a 3 month old anyway), drinking and relaxing.
We had a lot of fun, but Polly had the best time of all. To say she loves Grammy and Grandaddy's house is an understatement. With a huge yard, a pool, a cat and sprinklers, there is no shortage of fun for her.
All in all Liam did great!
He got some much needed time with Grammy.....
Watched sports and played with Daddy....
And even got to spend some QT time in his favorite chair...
We started regressing slightly in our sleep time by the end of our stay so we were definitely ready to get back home, but for our first "vacation" I will say it was a huge success. We are heading to Virginia a week from Friday (Liam gets to meet his great-grandparents!), so this was a nice tester before we take the big leap and fly out of the state!!! Wish us luck!
