Oh, last weekend. The fun! The laughs! The activities perfectly mixed with napping! The summer cocktails and sun and thunderstorms! Where to begin?
First, there is this guy. Between the zoo, the Natural History Museum, riding the Metro, "wow!"ing all the buses/ambulances/firetrucks that we saw, the parade, and the fireworks... Liam had the time of his life. The dinosaur bones sent him into such an excited frenzy at the museum that he started shaking uncontrollably. Every display of bones, he'd get the shakes all over again. It was the cutest thing I've ever seen... what the video for proof!
And then there is this guy, who is such a little stud. Lucas couldn't be any more handsome, could he? And so silly when he's hyper!
These boys are so lucky to have such amazing parents. I didn't realize this until they arrived, but DC was their first official family vacation since Lucas was born!
Special shout-out to Uncle T, who's pretty amazing.
And finally, my sis Lisa. We don't get nearly enough time together outside of regular Skyping, so doing silly things like taking a baby into a liquor store to buy more Hendrick's gin, doing cupcake "quality control," and giggling about the same weird things that only we giggle about are pretty awesome things to do.
We think we're going to start a 4th of July tradition in DC. I mean really... can you blame us?

@LPC: Awwww! Liam is just over two years old - his birthday is June 1. I think he's a smartypaints, too!
@Sasha: Thanks!! Our necklaces were thrown from marchers during the neighborhood Fourth of July parade and we decided to wear them all day.
@TFE: Doesn't she look great?!
HAHAHAH- I think everytime I am in a pissy mood, I am going to watch the video of Liam trembling in excitement. Love it! Samma
ReplyDeletePS Who took care of the chickens while Lisa was visiting you?
Oh please let the comments work! Mags, you are awesome. Thanks for everything! We really had a blast. I hope we can do it again next year! And maybe one or two more in between????
ReplyDeleteY'all are all sweet! The grandparents were all kind enough to take care of the chickens while we were away so they were in good hands. :-)
Love ya, Maggie! - Lisa (the sis)
