Weekend in RI

This past weekend we went to RI for a visit. Friday afternoon Jack had a play date with his cousins Ava, Michael and Ella. It was crazy! The girls (ages 3 &2) were so loud and crazy, I don't think Jack knew what to think. He was awake, but just staring around at them! Soon he and Michael (age 10 months) will be able to band together against those silly girls. We ended the day at Gramma and Big Papi's so they could play with Jack while Daddy and I went out to dinner with our friends Brian, Julie & Brian T. We went to The Mews in Wakefield and had a great time. I even had a cocktail....the first time I had one with our friends from CT. Jack had a great time at Gramma and Big Papi's and then slept the whole night!! :) Saturday we just hung out and were visited by my cousins Erica (who is expecting a boy in April) & Jamie, my Aunt Terri and my Aunt Kathy. It was a great visit. They got to see Jack awake and doing some of his "tricks", smiling, giggling and playing under his jungle gym. I was able to chat a little with Erica about things to get for her baby and what to expect for the last couple weeks of her pregnancy. Saturday night we went back to Gramma and Big Papi's and Daddy and I went in the hot tub while Auntie Cait played with Jack. It was so relaxing. I wasn't able to go in the hot tub at all last year, so it was an extra treat to get back in! :) Boy did I sleep well on Saturday night!!

Sunday we headed back to CT. It was a rainy day, a great one for naps and watching a movie! Jack is getting so big so quickly! Everyday he is more alert during the day, cooing, giggling, and making all sorts of noises. He smiles constantly! I just love looking at him!! He wakes up so happy too. I hear him stirring in the morning and when I peek into the crib he sees me and just smiles and giggles. What a great way to start the day! We have officially transitioned him to his nursery and he is doing great. He loves being able to look up at his mobile in the morning.
