I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! Summer, Tom and I had the best trip to Indiana! We did so much while we were there.
We left Tuesday and drove for 11 hours. Summer had slept for over 12 hours the night before and then slept most of the day there. Tom guessed she slept 20 hours in a 24 hour period. She had a cold so I am sure that was part of the reason she slept so much!
On Wednesday we were able to relax and some of us even stayed in our PJ's until 2pm! Then Summer got to meet her Uncle Joe (Tom's brother), Aunt Kelly and her cousins Hadley and Greg. We did family portraits and then on to Tom's favorite- Pizza King!
Thursday we spent family time together as we celebrated Thanksgiving. Summer continued to show everyone how well she is getting this crawling business and how she pulls her self up to stand. She is soooo strong! It was a wonderful Thanksgiving Day!
Friday Tom and I joined the crowds for some shopping (not too early-8ish) and then Susie and Max hosted a family Open House for all of Tom's aunts and cousins that we don't get to see much and that hadn't met Summer yet. It was so much fun. Summer of course took her only nap that trip while everyone arrived. I actually had to wake her up. She was all smiles and charmed everyone. It was a great family gathering!
Saturday we made the 11 hour trek back to GA and Summer slept pretty much the whole time. What a great trip! Family means a lot to Tom and I and it was a family filled trip! Thanks to everyone that made the effort to come spend time with us and thanks to Grandpa Max and Grandma Susie for a great visit!!
Hey Mommy is this how I am getting to Indiana? In your suitcase?
This is the Tuesday we drove to Indiana. Summer was having some much needed playtime. She didn't go to bed until 11pm.
Storytime with Grandma Susie.
Here Summer is crawling to her Grandma in the kitchen!
Cousin Greg a Pizza King!
Hadley kept asking to hold Baby Summer so here she is attempting to while Summer plays with Hadley's toys. Hadley will be 3 in February. Summer just loved watching Hadley. They were very sweet together!
Happy Thanksgiving!

On Sunday Summer got to a birthday party at Gymboree. This was Summer's first time going to a birthday party. It was for our friend Juliette. Juliette's Mommy and I used to work together in Maryland and have both ended up in GA. Summer and I had a great time at the party! Jules is such a cutie!
Today Summer and I missed Mommy and Me. Summer had an audition for being on the packaging of Baby Einstein products. This is after she met the panel of judges and had her picture taken. She looks pretty proud! She did a good job charming them and smiling for the pictures. Don't worry this isn't one of those things I paid money for. I just submitted her pictures to a legit agency that was recommended by our neighbor and they sent us to this casting call. We are so excited! I will keep you posted. We shall see if she gets picked for the next step!
