Another Out of Town Weekend...

Luckily, Aidan is a very easy baby and loves his Grandma-because we went out of town again. It just so happened we were invited to three weddings in September. Fortunately, the first one was local. The second was not terribly far, but Mommy was a bridesmaid and had to be there all weekend for all the events. The third was in Hampton, Virginia. Our friends, Ryan and Anastasia were married on September 26th. The last two weddings were back to back and it was hard to leave our baby boy for a second weekend in a row. But, we headed down on Friday night to beat traffic and enjoy the weekend. We swam in the pool, soaked in the hot tub, got massages, and enjoyed food and drinks with our friends.

Wedding Weekend

On September18th, Mitch and I headed out of town for the weekend. It was the first overnight away from out little man. He was in good hands though, surrounded by Grandma and all his uncles and aunts-as I understand it:)
We headed to Havre de Grace for my best friend's wedding. We attended a wonderful rehearsal dinner on a boat along the river on Friday night and watched our very good friends tie the knot on Saturday at a beautiful vineyard. Here are some highlights from the weekend.

Aidan's Baptism

On September 6, Aidan Charles was baptized at St. Andrew's Catholic Church. Mommy and Daddy both grew up in Little Rocky Run and this was the church we both attended for a majority of our childhood. It was a wonderful affair. Twenty or so friends and family(we literally took up the while right side of the pews) showed up to celebrate this important day with us. Aidan wore Mommy's christening gown and sported a dress like a champ. He was very well behaved, fascinated by all the bright candles, draperies, and statues. But, he did loose it at the end when he passed out in Mommy's arms. It was his nap time. He did manage to stay awake until the priest ended the service. But, he was ready to party by the time we got home and had a great time with everyone.

Aidan finally gets to asleep, what a champ.
