Catherine & Zoey

Today, Matt, Anthony, and I went to see my 3-week-old cousins, Catherine and Zoey! They were born on August 7 to my aunt, Alicia, and her husband, Frank, and are healthy and just adorable! I had bought them two adorable dresses from Target for my aunt's shower, and they had them on. We brought Anthony's suit and had a mini photo shoot with the three of them!

Rolling

Anthony has started rolling from back to belly! When I picked him up at daycare today, he was on back and rolled right over! He's been doing it all night, too! We're so excited, but nervous, too. This is the beginning of the end: he's becoming mobile!

Halloween Costume

I bought Anthony's costume today for Halloween! I had been looking all over for a dinosaur costume and Carter's had an adorable fleece one!

Now we'll really have a Tonysaurus Rex!

Daycare

Today was Anthony's first full day at daycare and my first full day back at work. (Yesterday we both did half days to ease into it.) He did really well and, I must admit, so did I. Tuesday was incredibly difficult dropping him off and, although it has gotten a little easier, it's still tough leaving him. Luckily the staff at London Bridge love him and they post pictures on Facebook so I get to see him throughout the day. I'm busy enough at work that it keeps me from thinking about Anthony constantly, but I still miss him all day and my favorite part of the day is picking him up at 5!

Here's a couple of pictures they've taken of him:

Tennessee & Pennsylvania

We're back from our vacation! On Monday, we left for Tennessee where my friend Lars was getting married. The first day we drove to Maryland and stayed overnight in a hotel before heading to Kingsport, Tennessee on Tuesday. We spent Wednesday and Thursday before the wedding hanging out and relaxing at our hotel before heading out for the nuptials! Anthony was so good the entire ceremony and reception, and he really enjoyed having Ryleigh around! On Friday morning, we packed up all of our stuff and headed back up north to Pennsylvania to visit my cousin, Jill, and her son, Connor. My parents and brother and sisters came out as well and we all spent the weekend together. Last night we went to a local AA baseball game which was a lot of fun as well as being shown around the local Wegman's which my parents love. This morning we hit the road once more to head back home to Rhode Island! We had a great week, even though a lot of it was spent driving, and a great time seeing our friends and family!
