This weekend, we took our first out of town adventure with Maxwell down to Montgomery for Robert’s 15 year high school reunion. It was a nice weekend all around – we got to see Robert’s family, Maxwell got to meet his cousins, Robert got to see lots of old friends and we celebrated our birthdays.
I will say, traveling will never be the same again! Babies require a lot of stuff! Here’s all of our bags for the big 2 day trip…phew!
Maxwell with Robert and Robert’s dad (Granddaddy). Granddaddy wanted to take this photo next to the portrait of his father, Maxwell’s great-grandfather. Neat!
Maxwell also got to meet his sweet cousins Katie (5) and Anna (3).
On Friday night Robert and I went to the football game and then out to see some of his friends. Maxwell was left at home in the very capable hands of his grandmother, Lou Lou. Let’s just say he was not a happy camper! He showed Lou Lou just what a good screamer he was the whole time we were gone! On Saturday night Robert and I persevered and went out to the reunion. Lou Lou nicely agreed to babysit again and Maxwell took it much easier on her Saturday night. Thank goodness and thank you Lou Lou!
Here we are going out Saturday night…
We even got to take a little family picture before heading out the door!
It was a great weekend…minus that Bama loss to South Carolina. Oh well, you can’t win them all!
ps – I was so excited to get a family picture for the blog header but we’re too big! You don’t really need to see Robert’s forehead, do you? I’ll keep working on it…
Yes, traveling will never be the same! Sounds like a great week-end – glad that Maxwell finally got to meet Katie and Anna.
=) Yes, traveling won’t ever be the same again! Wait until you have to fly somewhere and baby food enters the picture! Also toys and books. You’ll wish you had more than four arms between the two of you! Glad you all were able to go and see the fam!
fun weekend! Stephie, your hair looks great that length!
