Welcome to Ohio

We ventured on our first major car trip with Madeline this past weekend. I was very worried about being in the car around bed time, so we just waited until bed time and let her fall asleep in her car seat, which worked out perfectly. This was our first trip back since Christmas - yikes!


We had a crazy busy weekend meeting all sorts of family and friends. Highlights of the weekend included a cookout with ALL of the grandparents, meeting our Ripley friends, and celebrating cousin Seth's graduation from West Point! Despite all the running around and being mobbed by people, Maddie did a great job of staying on schedule.

I totally forgot about the Madeline books!

The best part of the weekend was getting to hang out with Aunt Brittany, who has a knack for making Maddie laugh. Britt and Matt have only been able to visit once since she was born and NO ONE was feeling so hot that weekend, so it was kind of bust. Here's a great picture of Madeline with her Aunt Brittany. (Uncle Matt still needs to work on his baby handling skills.)


If we didn't catch you on this trip, we'll be home again for 4th of July (Note: This is also my birthday and presents are always welcome ;) Please consult our secretary for an appointment!
