5 Months - Notre Dame

 
So. We made it to South Bend and back home again! We had a wonderful visit - seeing the campus (and lunch in the dining hall!), visiting with family, relaxing. The weather went quickly from 70 degrees one day, to snowing the next! The boys were seriously rock stars. We hit a bit of a storm on the way home, so we stopped in Erie, PA, and stayed in a great hotel on the water. Good meal, recharged the batteries, and pressed on. Matt managed through some tricky weather and we were home in no time. I'm not sure what we were thinking with this road trip, but I would do it again. Thanks to Diane and Bill for their hospitality!

Corbett is 5 months old - He is a really smiley guy and changing so much, but still very chill. He rolled (mostly) over once, and is gaining strength and personality. I think we have a big month ahead of us!

20 Weeks - Road Trip!

 
This week John and Matt took a day trip to Battleship Cove to explore a real Battleship and Submarine. They also treated themselves to Friendly's (John's First!). We had some fun play dates and John and Corbett took in the Wellesley High School performance of Beauty and the Beast (which was AMAZING); Corbett slept through the whole thing, and John's mouth was agape the entire time (with exception to the scary parts when Evie and Cate saved the day). The rest of the week was filled with Fort building and a hair cut. Corbett needed a last-minute costume change when he broke his diaper at the barbershop- thankfully John loaned him his sweatshirt! We ended the week by beginning our roadtrip adventure to South Bend. Both boys were awesome travelers on the 14+ hour drive. We can't wait to visit the Notre Dame and St Mary's Campuses, and visit with family we haven't seen in years!

19 Weeks - Get Out!

 
It's been beautifully Fall! We spent so much of the last week outside- it's been too perfect not to. This week marked Corbett's 1st Presidential Election!
