Lake Weekend!!!

Last weekend we had a wonderful, relaxing (?!?!?!) weekend at the lake! We met the Black's party of 5 Thursday night and enjoyed a long weekend of baby craziness!! Pops and Vinny joined us for part of the trip, I was so happy to see them after way too long. We sure missed Nana, she was at a sister's reunion in Florida. Poor planning on my part. Lauren and I were sure living our dream of being rocking, feeding, bathing, playing,... filthy, scatter-brained, exhausted MAMA's!!!! I had missed my other 3 sweet babies way too much, I was in heaven getting many good Owen hugs and snuggling with my peanuts all weekend long. We are all now eternally grateful for the amount of work Nana puts into taking care of meals and keeping the house from looking like a tornado came through. We were joking that we were going to have Hot Pockets for dinner but we weren't far from that!! Char did not have her best weekend... 4 new teeth (yes, that makes 16 total), diarrhea, a raw bootie and early mornings made for a sleepy, clingy Mama's girl. All jokes aside, we really truly enjoyed our time together and the kiddoes did great. Here is some proof of the fun!!

Sweet Everett - such a handsome, content baby boy!!

Charlotte is letting her cousins borrow her old FAVORITE toy!! Here she is teaching Ev how to play!

Owen got to go for his first canoe ride...

... and LOVED it!

LOTS of room to run....

Recurring theme... Charlotte clearly likes to get into small spaces...

...again...

...and again!!!

Practicing her body parts with Hannah! Where's Hannah's nose?

Where's Hannah's hand?!!

Beautiful baby girl

The babies slept...

....and slept...

....and slept....

....and slept...

Curious about big cousins every move.

Proof that it wasn't all smiles. Love this.

H&E playing in their new jungle!

I love her big round eyes.

Nap on Mommy at 10:30am?!?!! Wow, that NEVER happens!! I wasn't complaining ;)

And then staying close to Dada when she woke up.

Justin is such an awesome daddy!! So cute wearing his sweet baby and drinking that caffeine after a long night!!

Sweet cousins. We tried to get all 4 for Nana but Miss Charlotte was NOT in the mood!
