Anniversary Getaway

Mike and I will be celebrating our 5 year wedding anniversary next month. Craziness! Things really start to move in double time once a child is in the picture. Mike took vacation during our anniversary, so we decided to plan a short getaway. Thanks to an old friend of mine, I found Fort Lewis Lodge. I can't tell you how excited I am...this place looks amazing. It's 3200 acres of mountains, rivers, bike trails AND of course cozy rooms and yummy food. My family owned a bed and breakfast while I was growing up, so I know how special these places can be :)

So back to the short part of our getaway. The longest I have been away from Henry EVER has been 5 hours. I have always been there when he wakes up in the morning (and the middle of the night...every night). I'm having some anxiety as I think about leaving him for 2 nights. I hope I can really enjoy myself with Mike and not be totally distracted with worry. I know he will be fine and I know this is much more a mom issue than a Henry issue. He will also be staying with my sister, which means he might not realize I'm gone...until he wants to nurse :) Henry has been around my sister ALOT lately and has actually started crying for her at times when we are home. Hmm...maybe things will be just fine.

Visit to Grandma and Grandpa's

We went to the Swinson's for dinner last night. Henry's Grandma just got a tiny Terrier puppy last week. Henry thought the 2 pound creature was pretty cool.


Mike and Annie went to explore the property for awhile. Nixsa and I stayed behind to make sure Henry didn't squish her dog :)

Just outside the picture is a 900 pound bull that had Annie's attention. {We really don't know how much it weighs, but it seemed big when it was swinging its head at Mike!}

Backyard Time!

What a beautiful weekend in Virginia! We were able to spend a lot of time outside. It was nice to be able to open up the house and get some fresh air inside. Hopefully the winter coughs and colds will leave soon too! We spent some time in the backyard this afternoon. I vegged in a chair while Mike played with Henry and Annie. I couldn't tell who was loving it the most :)

We never stood a chance after we met her!

Henry and Annie both have to have their own ball.

Getting ready for bed

Henry got a haircut today. Looking at these pictures, I can't believe how old he is looking. He really is the sweetest little guy. He is saying a lot of words these days. He started saying "I love water" and "I love pizza" a couple weeks ago. It's very cute. The other day he started saying "I love Mommy". It was the best!

Silly Henry being silly :)

I love this picture. Henry is so sweet to his Mommy. I'm not sure what is on my shirt, but I'll edited it out once we get Photoshop :)
