Family Fun Time

Kyle and I have an unbelievable amount of photos of baby Carver, but hardly a dozen of all three of us together, so BFF Joy did a family portrait shoot on Saturday. I'm getting a taste of my own medicine waiting to see all the fabulous photos she took from the shoot! The suspense is killing me! Here's the photo she's teased us with on her blog until she finishes putting together the slideshow...

Here's Joy in action during Carver's bath time.

We had such a fun time and Carver was whooped when his nap time came around! Joy came over a little before Carver woke from his morning nap (around 10am) and captured all the fun times before his next nap 2 hours later! Carver was a total ham smiling and posing for the camera. Kyle and I did our share of hamming too! When she finishes the slideshow I'll be sure to share with my friends and family. Thank you so much Joy, your talents will be cherished forever!

Laura's Blooming Belly

This past Saturday I visited with my friends Laura and Scott. I can't believe we have been friends for over 10 years, boy time flys! They are due to have their angel in about 4 weeks! The baby was super active and it brought back memories watching her beautiful belly move around. It was fun to talk about our pregnancies and our expectations of labor and birth. Laura is an extremely strong and beautiful caring woman who is about to experience the most amazing event of her life!

Laura and Scott are always laughing!

Here are a few shots of her in the nursery.

Friday Field Trip!

Today was our first Friday Field Trip with the Lankenau hospital mommies and babies. Carver and I started going to the Lankenau Mommy & Me group when he was 3 weeks old and we made fabulous friends with some wonderfully sweet moms and babies! We have started a little thing we like to call Friday Field Trips. So far there have been two field trips, and hopefully there will be many more to come! Thanks to Laura's father-in-law who volunteers at Longwood Gardens who generously offered a bunch to Laura, who in turn offered them to LUCKY us!
It was a gorgeous autumn day for a brand spankin' new Children's Garden outing! The garden was incredible, and I can only imagine how much fun Carver will have when he's running around! We were all there for a good part of the day and the babies were hanging in there for as long as they could, their nap schedules were getting the best of them!
Thank you so much again to Laura and Luke! We really had a wonderful time and hope to make it back to Longwood with dear old daddy.
Here's the slideshow I promised! It was pretty tricky taking photographs and holding a baby at the same time but preserving these memories are well worth it! When and where is the next field trip!?
I think the ladies are looking for the closest restroom.
