Jack Meets Fran & Loooooves the pumpkin basket she had made for him!
Then we were FINALLY able to introduce Jack to Uncle Dave, Auntie Krissy & Liam. When Scott & I moved, I put our webcam in a place "where I won't forget." I still don't know where that place is. MiMa was nice enough to let us borrow her camera for our very important date with our favorite family members in North Carolina. We were so excited to see Liam & could not believe how big he has gotten :( :( We also learned that Auntie Krissy mashes up vegetables and cooks them into muffins & tricks Liam into eating them. It was at that moment that I decided I will be the cool Aunt Kelley who give him a real muffin & he will figure out that his Mommy's muffins don't taste that good after all!!!
Liam blew kissies to his new cousin Jack
Saturday we went to Scott's last regular season football game. They played Pelham which is actually Nick, his best man's football team. It was chilly but we bundled Jack up and braved the cold to watch Daddy in action. Jack cheered the team on from the sidelines & when the game was finally over (they won 41-8!!!) he got the VIP treatment and took his first steps (or stroll, since he was obviously in his stroller) onto the turf field. I think it was a very proud moment for Daddy & it was really fun for me to stand back & watch!!
Saturday night, after the football game, Scott & I were able to go to the Smith's soup picnic, have some delicious food & a few cocktails! Jack was with MiMa & Pop Pop and we finally took advantage of my parent's offer to keep him for the night so that Scott & I could actually sleep. I felt totally guilty leaving him since he is only 3 1/2 weeks but the thought of a full night's sleep was delicious! After checking in a few times to see how he was doing, Scott & I went to bed at a ridiculously early hour & did not wake up once! When I called my mom Sunday morning to see how our little man did, she informed me that he slept for almost 6 hours through the night in the crib all by himself!!!! At home, he sleeps in the cradle next to me, so I am very excited to put him in his own crib in his own room. Needless to say I was a proud mommy of how well Jack was on his first sleepover!!! However, it was so strange for us to wake up and not have him with us so we probably won't be leaving him again for a while!!! Thank you MiMa & PopPop!
IT WAS A GOOD WEEK!

I thought I posted a comment! Where did it go!?
What a FUN week for you guys! So much going on, and so many wonderful family and friends around!
I will be watching you with the muffins, young lady. Beware, or I'll hide them in YOUR food!!
Love and miss you guys!!!!
PopPop & I had so much fun with Jack on his first sleepover! We can't wait to have him again! After reading Kelley's comment tho, we're afraid that Mommy & Daddy missed him so much that it might not be for a very long time :-(. So . . . . we can only hope that with a little more time & a little more sleep deprivation, maybe they'll cave and we'll have Jack over for another sleepover again, soon. OMG! WE LOVE HIM! The ULTIMATE would be for us to have BOTH Jack and our first little man, Liam, sleep over . . . . at the same time!!!!!!!! Now, that would be the very best thing in the world! And, hopefully, that will be something that really will happen in the very near future! Our two little men sleeping over.......... big sigh! It will happen! We know it will.
