Labor Day Weekend Fun!!

We had such a great LONG weekend!!  Nothing really spectacular just an awesome weekend with my little family and my sister's family!

The three of us spent Saturday afternoon just hanging out at the house.  Stella is such a good baby and we loved the extra "nothing planned" time with her.  She's rolling all over the place and giggling up a storm!  Then that evening Adam and I had our first real post-baby date night:)  Now we've left Stella with family to attend weddings and other functions or go out to eat with her in toll but this was a "real" date night with just the two of us.  I didn't know how I would feel about leaving Stella and I still have mixed emotions about it.  BUT  for the first time since having a baby I felt like a WIFE and just a person..not a mommy! It was so weird to be out and about without her or even in the car with just me and Adam.  We went to dinner at Bonefish Grill--delicious (I even had a glass of wine!)  Then we decided to go to the movies.  I can't remember the last time I went to the early movie (don't get me wrong we hit up the matinees all the time on Sunday afternoons), but this was the 7 pm movie with all the little middle school kids!  We saw the Campaign, good not great.  It was between that and the new batman movie BUT mommy couldn't stay away for 3 more hours!! ha!
It's the first time I've missed Stella's bedtime routine:(  But she was in good hands with Nana and Grandpa (Adam's parents).  She, of course, didn't even skip a beat and fell right to sleep for them!

My sister and her family came to visit the rest of the weekend.  It was so great to have some time with Stella's cousins!  They couldn't get over how big she had gotten.  And I think Trent was a bit upset that she doesn't stay still long enough to cradle like a baby anymore! ha  Of course Stella had a massive blowout while my sister was holding her--it never fails!  Stella went shopping with us girls while the boys played golf.   We grilled out burgers and hotdogs even in the rain!  It was the perfect long weekend but we sure did miss seeing GranMomma and Grandaddy (my parents!)
