Whirlwind Trip Home!

We had such a great trip home! I thought one week would be plenty of time, but I didn't get to see everyone I had hoped to or do everything that I wanted. I guess that is why I will need to come back soon ;) Week in review...

1. Sean had swimming lessons with Alli all week! He is a fish and can barely keep his head above water. I used to worry about him at my parents' pool, as he struggled to touch. Now, he touches on the very tip tops of his toes and is able to swim and get breaths...HUGE accomplishment!
2. The babies got spoiled by everyone holding and playing with them. They love all the cuddles and attention.
3. We crashed a birthday party that had a pony there! Sean got to ride it and loved every second of it! Thanks DeMars Family :)
4. Isaac went swimming for the first time! He loved it and smiled ear to ear! Andrew, on the other hand, hated it. Next year, buddy!
5. We were able to celebrate my dad's birthday and had dinner at his favorite place...Charlie's! Fun times, funny faces, and lots of snuggles with family.
6. We had to pack up our "nest" in the basement and move upstairs to make room for my sister's family as they moved back to Mankato! Sean was a little confused, but had so much fun playing with his "friends," and he enjoyed sleeping with mom. We are so glad to have them closer! Love, love, love having them home.
7. Sean got to visit his old hangout, Lisa's house. He enjoyed playing with his old buddies and came home telling big tales!
8. We hit one of our favorite family spots, Westwood, for dinner. The kids love playing on the beach and the adults love the relaxed atmosphere.
9. I was able to get a pedicure in with my best friend, Mandy. Throw a baby shower for a special friend, Andrea. Have coffee with one of my favorite co-workers, Linda. Take my babies in for their 4 month appointment. Hang out with my sisters and parents. I loved every second.
10. Had to say goodbye" to Auntie Alli. We won't see her until Christmas :( Way too long, but we are so proud of her. She is an amazing person and has gotten to do lots of great things so far, and this is only the beginning.

We are resting up, getting back into our routine, and looking forward to coming home again! Oh, and Isaac can ROLL OVER! So proud!
