Weekend at Grandma & Grandpa's

This past weekend, we went to visit Tim's parents. It was Tim's first trip with me & Eli and all Eli's stuff. It's amazing how much you pack for one little person! We went down Friday afternoon and Eli slept the entire way - 3 hours. Of course, he was hungry when we got there but he was a great rider. Friday evening was pretty relaxing with Tim's mom having dinner ready for us. Saturday morning Eli was up at 6am like normal. Tim & his mom played with him for a bit giving me a very appreciated extra hour of sleep.

Tim's parents had planned some visiting hours for family on Saturday so everyone could meet Eli. The day was very busy and we saw friends and family from about 10am to 7pm. It was great to see family that we don't always see when we visit. The house was buzzing with energy and several other kids came by. Then, Saturday night, Tim & I got a real treat. His parents listened out for Eli after we put him to bed and sent us off for a dinner out alone. It was the first dinner out we've had alone since Eli was born. Very nice to spend some time together - we had forgotten what it was like!!

Then Sunday was a leisurely morning of spending time with Grandma and Grandpa. Eli was a good boy for the entire trip and showed off his little smile and coos for the grandparents. The drive home was pretty good. Eli got hungry about an hour outside of Raleigh so we stopped to take care of that but all in all, Eli was a champ.

Here are some pictures from our weekend.

Happy Grandpa
