We were lucky again this weekend as we had more fun visitors come to town. My Uncle Pat and Aunt Brenda, along with Pat's parents, Donald & Helen, had made the trip from Iowa to Charlotte to visit my cousin, BreAnn. On Saturday they all drove to Wilmington for 2 nights. It was so great to get to visit with them & they of course showered the boys with attention. Filson really will go into shock when he's suddenly stuck at home with just Mom & Ian one of these days!On Sunday they spent the entire day watching Filson & Ian so that John and I could work on projects around the house, which we appreciate more than they will ever know! John was able to get over halfway through a huge project, installing 19 replacement windows in our house. We really enjoyed the visit and appreciate them making the long drive out to Wilmington!
Ian seems to be more alert and changing every day. He's sleeping for at least 3.5-4hr stretches at night between feedings and so far has been going back to sleep easily. We've been out and about as much as possible & I'm slowly getting used to juggling getting he & Filson out of the car & into the sling and shopping cart before we all suffocate on these humid 90 degree days.
We had a lot of wildlife in our yard over the weekend. A racoon, fawn, turtle & frogs are a few of the things we have seen in the past few days. The last picture is of Filson getting close to the little turtle before it headed back into the woods. He is all about the outdoors & spent a couple hours out there with his dad yesterday morning touching the frogs & picking up all kinds of creatures.

My kids would go nuts if they found a turtle in our yard! So cool. And how nice that you were able to get so much done when your family was there visiting! I know your parents are dying to get on that plane on Wednesday!!!! :)
how fun to have all the visitors. I know your parents come out on Wed. Filson will get a lot of attention then too!! It is nice to get home improvement projects done too! One more thing checked off the to-do list!!
That is so cool you've seen so many different animals in your yard! Great pics of BreAnn with your little guys!
That is so nice that the Weeda's were able to visit! And so great that John and you have been able to get some things done around your house!
