West Virginia

If you haven't already heard... we made it to WV. Milo really surprised us at how well he did. The last two hours were a bit rough, but overall it was a fantastic trip. We did realize that we just need to be where ever we are going by 7:00... that's when Milo tends to be a bit fussy.

Milo has met A LOT of people. Yesterday alone... he met about 30 people... about 20 held him. That was way too much for both me. Milo did great. We are learning he is a very social baby! This morning Milo went to his very first church service at the church I grew up in. The church is in a new building, but its the community of faith I grew up in. Having that be Milo's first church service was very special to me. And he did great! He didn't make a peep the entire service. I was so proud. After that we went to Nathan's parent's church's picnic for a little bit.

We ended the day with our best friends {and Milo's honorary Aunt and Uncle} Eric and Caroline and their adorable and hilarious kids Ethan and Anne. We miss them so much. So, so much. We are always able to pick up right where we left off with them. And we are really looking forward until Milo is old enough to play with Ethan and Anne.

I'm kind of having some anxiety issues in the evenings, but I'm dealing with it. I'm so grateful that I have such a sensitive and patient husband!

Tomorrow Nathan, Milo, and I are going to have a little mini picnic with my brother Adam at Cooper's Rock. Then Eric and Nathan are going to a movie. After the boys get back... Caroline and I are going out to dinner... by ourselves! I am going to leave Nathan with Milo. I have NO problem leaving Milo with Nathan. Nathan is GREAT with Milo and I don't have a single doubt that Milo will be fine. I'll pump and leave a bottle in case he needs it. BUT it will be the first time I will be away from Milo. Its definitely going to be hard, but at the same time I am SOOOOO excited to have a girl's date with Caroline.

Well... I'm going to go visit and finish eating some watermelon before Milo wakes up. We're taking lots of pictures... that I will post when we're back in town. Please continue to have us in your prayers.
