sometimes I forget I even have a blog!
we had a kick-ass 4-day whirlwind visit in Maine last week...although it entirely wore us out:
- we surprised my mom for her birthday (I had to chase her around Portland to surprise her!)
- Baby finally met his aunt and cousins (who came up from Connecticut)
- we spent a day at my inlaws farm (surprisingly little conflict on that front)
- we surprised my brother by standing outside his office, calling to tell him to "go outside to see the asteroids exploding in the sky"...totally got him!
- we visited my father at his house. we spent time getting to know my half-brother (6yo) and stepmother (my age). I think this went well, although they've since been very disappointing towards us
- Baby finally met many of my friends , whom I miss dearly...especially my dear girlfriends, but we spent a LOT of time together
- Reusker got in 2 days of work at the satellite office in Freeport
- Baby met my uncle and a few friends from the MBA program
- I flew out alone with Baby and he did a GREAT job...Southwest is the THE airline to fly with a baby. We all flew home together, this time with baby on our laps. Not bad, but less restful.
And now my other mother in law is coming tomorrow. I dont know how we didnt know she was coming, so I am very, very glad she left me a message. Lately Reusker has been so absent-minded, I think he forget to tell me, and then he forgot. His brain is just overloaded.
I'm psyched for the Big Easter Egg Hunt this weekend...should be fun, and a decent distraction for the fam.
