July 24: We
just got back this afternoon from a great, four-day trip to Ann Arbor.
It’s been over a year since we last saw many of our dear friends from our days in Michigan, and it was so very nice to reconnect over a long weekend. In the four days we were in town, we saw eight sets of friends, and we’re feeling like our tanks have been refilled.
Andrew also used this weekend to make some new milestones. Here’s a few…
- He learned how to blow kisses. He especially likes to blow kisses bye bye to trucks “UKS!” when they go by.
- He can slide down a little slide unaided (sometimes) and can climb back up the ramp again
- He got his first bloody lip on the playground equipment, but he recovered quickly. You can see a bump on his lip in the photos from our weekend:(
- He said “Cup,” but even more fun, he’s been working on Cock-a-doodle-doo “cA cA…oooo”
- He seems to have figured out that he needs to back down steps, and at Heather and Michael’s deck, climbed down the two low steps rather handily and without help.
I put some of the photos from our trip up in the gallery.
We just love Ann Arbor. It was especially fun to stay with Heather and Michael just a month before their little baby is due and to see my friend Sheila, who is due in September. More baby friends!
Ahh…it was a great vacation. And now we’re back to work!
