I Get By With a Little Help From My Friends

Sawyer had his first playdate on Monday! It really was a playdate for me, but it Sawyer appeared to have a good time too. We met at a local coffee shop that had a playspace for the toddlers. Our mom's group met to let the older girls get some energy out and check in on all the babies. The babies are 1, 3, 5, and 8 months and the toddlers are 2. It was mass chaos and lots of fun. It was so wonderful for me to have some adult conversation with someone other than Carey and it was really neat to see how alert and curious Sawyer was. He was checking out everything and everyone.

We had a wonderful visit in Charlotte. It went by way too fast as usual but was lots of fun. We walked on the greenway close to Derrell and Lindsay's (rental) house, went to see their new house that they are buying, had a cookout with the Clark family, had brunch with our friends Steve and Darcy and their baby, Chloe, and Sawyer got to go see Derrell's work truck. Pictures below!

Fun, Fun, Fun

Twice the Speed of Life

This week has blown by. I made Carey go to Marietta Wednesday on his last day off to get me a new military ID. Mine was expired. Sawyer was just a little younger than Oscar when I got my last one and my hair was also in the same rough stage. I felt a sense of deja vu, like I was starting to repeat the last four years. Say it isn't so. :) My espresso machine has been broken since just before Oscar was born and the only place in Atlanta that I could find that was willing to see if they could repair it was also in Marietta so we dropped that off while we were there too. Then Carey and I went out to lunch. Lunch dates are a little different with a babe, but it was nice not to have Sawyer out with us too and worry about him. We picked Sawyer up early and took both boys to see Carey's grandparents. They hadn't met Oscar yet and as his middle name is after Carey's grandfather's, we thought it high time they meet. I hung out inside with Oscar and Grandad and Audrey and...
