Busy Times

Now that Spring is in full effect and the summer plans are underway, it seems like every weekend we are busy... but a good busy. My mom and dad get in tonight and are babysitting all day tomorrow and tomorrow night so we can go to the Wachovia Cup and then to Hannah and Chris' wedding party. We have been looking forward to this weekend for a while. On Sunday, we're going to celebrate an early Mother's Day with a brunch at Erin's and then dinner at my house. Our hope is to go out on the boat if the weather cooperates. (Oh! I haven't mentioned that we bought a boat! It's a beauty and was previously owned by Robert, Kyle's step dad. It basically was too good of a deal to pass up and from here on out any nice day that we have we plan to be "boating." On the actual day of Mother's Day (my first one as a mommy) we are having brunch out with Beverly.
Kyle and Josh's good friends Kevin and Haskell are coming into town next weekend and Kevin will be meeting Colston for the first time. They will be having a 'guys weekend', but will involve Erin and I in as much as we want to be involved in (boat, dinner, etc.) :-) How nice of them to include us! Afterall, I like hanging with the guys!
The following weekend Kyle is out of town and I plan to have a restful weekend with my baby. Maybe go to the park, out to lunch with some friends, etc. We will miss Daddy though.
The weekend after that we are going to Charleston for Morgan and Brent's wedding. We are looking forward to that although I hate leaving my baby over night. Bruce and Anne are coming Friday night and will be staying with him so he'll have a good time... it's just still hard for me to leave him being so little. I'm in the process of sleep training him and we're making some headway. (We're now skipping the night bottle and only feeding him around 5:30am or whenever he wakes up and then he goes back down until 7:30 or so. He's been trying to get that feeding in a few times before then so I'm hoping to have him weaned from that soon.)
The next weekends are filled with a beach trip to Emerald Isle, (looking forward to a few days on the beach with the Phillips family), a trip home to NJ in July, and a beach trip to Wild Dunes in August. Fun times lie ahead!
