Congratulations Andy & Maureen!

Our friends Andy & Maureen welcomed their new baby boy into the world yesterday (on Maureen's birthday!) ~ Adam Louis Gribble was born at 4:07pm weighing 6lbs, 15 ounces and is 20 inches long. I was waiting by my computer all afternoon/evening to see the big announcement. :) We're so happy for them and can't wait to meet him!

Owen & Kayla

Met up with Molly, Kelly & Kayla tonight for dinner in Herndon. Before we walked to ZPizza for dinner, we let the kids play at the little playground by Kelly's house. Then I sat them down on a bench to snap a few pics.

6-year anniversary photo

Today we celebrated 6 years of marriage. My wonderful mother-in-law came over to babysit so Ben and I could go out to dinner. Before we left, she took a couple of pictures for us.

Hanging out with Wyatt

Before we left FL we were able to get in one more playdate with Wyatt and Andrea. They had swim lessons at the Y, so we met up ahead of time to swim and play on the playground. The next time the boys see each other it will be Christmas and they'll both probably be walking! We can't wait to hang out again!

Spaghetti

Tuesday Mom and I took Owen out for lunch at Aunt Lindsey's favorite restaurant ~ the Olive Garden. I learned what not to order off the kid's menu. I'm not sure how much he actually got in his mouth, but he had fun. And it was entertaining to say the least! :)

Dinner with Uncle Mike & Aunt Lindsey

Mike got back from Blizzcon on Sunday, so on Monday night we went over to their place for dinner. He showed us all of the pictures he took of the fun they had at the conference. We had a great time catching up. Uncle Mike couldn't believe how big his nephew had gotten! Next time we'll see them it will be Christmas and Owen will probably be walking!

Grandpa babysits

Mom and I decided we wanted to see The Time Traveler's Wife, so Grandpa offered to watch Owen. I snapped this picture before we left for the theater.



The movie was not that great. But Owen was good for Grandpa and went to sleep without a fuss.

Walker

No, he's not walking on his own yet. But Grandma and Grandpa got Owen his very own walker for our visit. It took a little getting used to, but soon he was off and walking!

Mookie

Aunt Lindsey came over for dinner tonight and brought Mookie so he wouldn't be lonely waiting for her to come home. Owen had fun playing with him.
