We had a fun weekend traveling to Rock Hill, South Carolina to visit with two of Mark’s college roommates and their wives. One of them moved to Rock Hill in January and the other moved to Raleigh, NC this summer. It was a lot of fun and we hope to do it again. Ryan and Mandi (the North Carolinians) are expecting their first baby in December and Mike and Carrie are expecting their first baby in January. Mark and I loved fielding questions about bringing home a newborn and all the essentials (and non-essentials) that go with raising a baby. Carrie & Mandi both were interested in clothe diapering (see I’m not totally crazy) and we got to talk more and I was able to demonstrate them more for them. Above, you will see the creative cup tower as brought on by Carrie. Enjoy the rest of the pictures!!
And for those who just need to know…Mike & Carrie are waiting to find out whether they are having a boy or girl and Ryan & Mandi are having a boy (Jacob Ryan).
Mike with Toby the Dog!
Ace enjoyed rough housing with two other men!
Liam has three silly faces when he’s happy. He’ll stick his tongue out, bite his lower lip, or make sucking noises with his mouth. They usually rotate days (or hours)…this was a lip biting day (fyi: today is a tongue day).
Liam loved Mike & Carrie’s dog, Toby. Toby was good with Liam but did not take too well with having his hair pulled…but neither do I!
Ace had to go nite nite on the bean bag!
Carrie & Toby getting in some “baby” practice.
Mandi getting in baby practice!
