Six children, 2 and under, 24 hours

We had perfect weather for our little road trip south to the Spoonful's house. Please read SB's hysterical summary of our time together here. We planned this insanity because Leslie and her babies were going to be nearby visiting family. Sarah Barry asked us to bring a box of cereal and a bottle of wine. Pretty much covers it.

We were three-wide-double-wide.


Here's the line-up, oldest to youngest. Please humor my captions, and prepare yourself for a lot of baby-blues.

Graham (Leslie's). 2 years, 5 months. Blurry. Darn. 

 

J (mine). 2 years, 1 month.

 

Stephen Small (SB's). 1 year, 11 months.


Jackson (Leslie's). 7.5 months.


AP (mine). 6.5 months.


Laurie (SB's). 2.5 months.


The big boys watched Toy Story and texted constantly.



The littles played.

"Hey, Jackson... friends share their giraffes..."
"No, AP. Friends hold hands."
"Laurie. You simply must let me borrow that onesie."

Future Auburn freshman roommates and football dates, 2029.


"Jackson. Is that Ralph Lauren? We don't cry while wearing Ralph Lauren."

 

And, to prove I saw my friends, too.



So. There were falls, tears and laughs. J slept about 8.5 hours in 24 hours (usually it's closer to 14) and we watched Toy Story at 3 am. Still very worth it to see these friends. Nell, we missed you!

Thanks for hosting all of us in your clutter-free home, SB!

  5. I wish I could've seen y'all walking. I love how BH walks have evolved over the years. We've come a long way from the good ol' TCBY route. Or Bruno's if you were feeling really ambitious. Looks like a blast! See you very soon!!
