To Grandma and Grandpa's House we go!

Nolan had his first babysitter this past week! I was aching to get back to the gym, and they don't take infants until six weeks so my gracious neighbor Jean offered to watch him so I could go to water aerobics! They had a great time together and she offered to take him every week so I could go work out which is so great because she is right next door. She also has offered to watch him during broomball season.

We took our first road trip this weekend to Grandma and Grandpa Bayer's cabin this weekend! They are getting settled into the cabin as their new full time home. The entire family was there. Nolan's aunt Sara and Uncle John (also Nolan's goodparents) were there. Sara's parents and her brother and his girlfriend Laurie also joined us. The guys all spent the weekend hunting and us girls went into town to shop while dad and Nolan stayed home to watch the Gopher game. Unfortunatly the gopher football game was a disappointment and the guys came home with no deer. In fact the only one they saw the entire weekend was on the way back to the car when they were headed home. However we had a fun time just hanging out and playing Settlers of Catan. Of course the major highlight of the weekend was the Vikings beating the Packers! woohoo!!!

On the way up we stopped in St. Cloud to visit my cousin Becky and her daughter Claudia again! She is growing so much, she still looks so tiny next to Nolan. He is out growing so many of his clothes already! Claudia looks so much like her dad! I am wondering how both Becky and I carried these babies for 9 months and there is no physical evidence that they belong to us!

We then stopped at my good friend Missy's house, she also lives in St. Cloud and had not yet met Nolan! Here is a picture of Missy, her son Peyton and Nolan. It was so much fun. Nolan was telling us he was hungry in this picture.

Today we went a visited Dad at his school and got to meet all his students. It is so funny to see at a baby through the eyes of 1st graders. I forgot my camera though, I'll have to bring it next time.
