Memorial Weekend

Another exciting weekend in our household. Friday dad had a sales manager meeting at Fenway Park in Boston. Mom was stuck home. Friday night after the meeting dad got to watch the Redsox beat Tampa Bay. Mom was stuck at home. However, Kelly came over to keep her company but she was not feeling well. Dad ended up getting in pretty late (after midnight). Mom and Charlotte were sleeping.

Saturday was a beautiful day. Dad took mom to Target to do a little shopping. Mom got to practice driving the electric carts again. She needs more practice. She was looking for sunglasses....had to back up...beep beep beep...and crashed into a display.

After shopping mom and dad took Charlotte to Greeley Park in Nashua for her first picnic. Charlotte loved it!! We played together on the blanket and ate hot dogs from the hot dog guy. It was so beautiful out. Then we went to the Big 1 Ice Cream and got a couple of cones for the ride home. Such a perfect day. Of course mom and dad were in bed early as usual. Charlotte even slept great Saturday night. She got up only once!



Sunday dad did some work around the house before heading to Ryan and Lisa's house for a cookout. Charlotte's FIRST cookout! Dad headed downstairs to Ryans bar and got a little break for about an hour. Mom started to not feel so great so he came back up and gave her a hand. Ryan and Lisa have a little plastic pool that Charlotte was eyeing. So we decided to take the kids for a little swim. Charlotte borrowed a pair of swimmy diapers and off she went. She loved sitting in the pool and was busy splashing around. We have a feeling she will be swimming by the end of the summer...Especially since she loves water.




Sunday night mom got sick. Monday morning mom got sick. Monday afternoon mom got sick. And you guessed it Monday night mom is sick. She seemed to catch whatever Kelly had and is not enjoying it at all. She feels horrible and seems to have some painful stomach flu thing. Not good. Dad so far has not caught it. He did his best to help out while doing work in the yard and around the house. Let's hope she wakes up and feels good. Otherwise it's going to be a very long week.





Charlotte started eating cereal on Sunday. It was hard to tell if she enjoyed it. We will try again tomorrow to see how she does. We can not believe this little baby is growing up infront of our eyes. Dad got the pleasure of getting Charlotte this morning at 5am to feed her. He took her downstairs cause mom was still sick and fed her in bed. Her hands and feet were cold from the a/c in her room. He held her tight against his chest. The next thing you know they were both sound asleep. When they both woke up they just looked at each other and smiled. Dad is a very lucky man.
