February has arrived! Already 2012 is off and running. January is just a blur, we had a fantastic first month to the year. Here’s the highlights.
We rang in the new year outside DC with some great friends. We joined 4 other couples and had a fantastic time entertaining and being entertained by 5 children 3 years and under! While in Virginia we got to meet up with some other friends as well, some that had not yet met Rayleigh. The roadtrip was great even at 8 months pregnant and our traveling kiddo did great as usual. Unfortunately I wasn’t in camera mode so there are no photos from this trip.
The next weekend, Kevin and I spent our first weekend away from our daughter to enjoy a mini Babymoon before our brood expands. Rayleigh was watched at our house by my parents and did just fine we are told. We stayed a nice Bed & Breakfast on Lake Champlain and spent Saturday stomping around Lake Placid- a place neither of us had visited in many years. Our room had a fireplace which we enjoyed thoroughly while reading new books.
The following weekend we used to catch up on rest and housework from the holidays, travels and general chaos. We met up with an old friend who has relocated back to New York and got to meet her wonderful family. We are excited for many more visits and for the girls’ to be big enough to enjoy each other.
Last weekend Kevin’s parents made an extended weekend to our place. They watched Rayleigh on Friday during the day and on Saturday evening while Kevin and I attended a Mad Men themed party. A great time was had by all.
