Grandma Janice and Uncle Darrin Visit

We haven't seen Janice and Darrin in a whole year so we were thrilled that they came to visit for a whole week. The boys begged to go the airport to pick them up even though they had to be locked in the car for 1.5 hours.

Here is Janice's first chance to meet Jacob.
Uncle Darrin brought several hats with him. Of course, the boys loved this. They had so much fun dressing up and acting cool.
The biggest event for Alex was when they took him to a Red Sox game at Fenway Park. It had been raining for nearly 3 days straight but the clouds let up for his special day. He was in awe and loved every second of it.




Grandma Janice had given the boys their fishing poles so we had to take them over to the local fishing hole. The boys caught many fish and luckily Janice was there to teach me how to get a hook out of the fish if it is swallowed. Double Yuck.


There was plenty of time to swim. I still hadn't been cleared to swim at this point so I missed out, but everyone else had tons of fun.

Here is Darrin's first meeting with Jacob.
Lots of cutes smiles these days.
We also took a drive up to Maine one day. We went to a beautiful lighthouse and walked around. There was also a restaurant with amazing seafood. Of course, Jonathan had a huge fit so I spent lunch in the car but he relaxed enough that I could go pick off other peoples plate near the end.



The boys have figured out how to all fit in my lap.


We had a great time with all our visitors and can't wait to see them in December. I really appreciated all the help you gave me Janice it made everything much easier. (Especially the 2 sleepovers you hosted with the big boys) ( oh and the dishes)
