Long Weekend

Pete and I took off for WI Wednesday night, before everyone else got on the road! Kenzie is getting used to the drive up there and even sleeps through the night after being in the car for 3 hours straight!! We spent alot of time with both of our families and got some quality grandparent time in for Makenzie. Grandma Char babysat her Friday and Saturday so we could take the boat out to the beach and do some water sports. It felt GREAT to be able to just relax for a couple days at the trailer. She went on her first duck ride, which was driven by Aunt Lil's boyfriend Matt. Kenzie slept through the fireworks....even the giant ones Pete set off right outside our trailer. Timmy Ray's parents came up for the weekend, so Timmy Lee got to spend sometime with them in Cortland and watch the fireworks that "go boom". He is too cute. We are getting ready for another long weekend. Pete is taking off Friday and we are going to stay in the trailer at the Nascar race in Joliet with my parents and Timmy Ray. Kim is going to have a blast with Timmy over the weekend while Grandma Char stays at our house relaxing with the baby. I am excited to have sometime for just me and Pete...but not that sure about spending my first night away from Kenzie. I miss her when she's sleeping...so we'll see how I do being gone for so long. I know she'll be fine!! She sleeps like a champ (usually 12 hours a night) and even naps two times during the day. We have found a wonderful routine that makes life seem really easy right now. I'm enjoying it before the teething starts!!

  1. How in the world is she sleeping through the night? I am so jealous! Evelyn still doesn't, she wakes up at least once. But, I'm a bad mom and bring her into my bed. oops.

  2. How was your first night away?! I know it's totally weird how much we miss those babies, but it's also nice to have quality time with your hubby. You'll have to update!!!!!
