springtime

family photo from mommys birthday!
We have been enjoying the first bit of springtime here in Melbourne with our little man!  My mom was here from mid August until mid September and it was so great having her here to help with Nathan and just to visit!  My aunt Billie also came for the first week-ish of the trip so we did some touring of the area.  Brian had to be away for 2 1/2 weeks (off shore for work) so it was so amazing having someone here while he was away!  Before he left, we did take advantage of some babysitters and went out for the first time, sans baby, for my birthday!  Bleh, 29 -- not very exciting getting older, but a nice restaurant dinner with a glass of wine -- MUCH NEEDED! :)




On my actual birthday-- not the dinner date night-- my mom and I went to the Royal Botanical Gardens for a picnic.  It was such a nice day and so fun and relaxing.  We got birthday macaroons, my favorite.  And when I got home I had some beautiful flowers Brian sent waiting on me!  So sweet!  It was a great birthday!








It was such a great time having my mom in town.  Nathan is a lucky little guy to have such an amazing grandmother!!  (we still havent decided on her grandmotherly name, suggestions welcome)  I think he is already missing her cuddles!  I am already missing having her here too!  Here are a few more pictures of her time here in Melbourne with her favorite daughter and grandson ;)


Then..... Brian got in town and it was great seeing him!  Nathan loved seeing his daddy!  We enjoyed the rest of September and the beginnings of the great weather that is to come!



    





Ahhh I just love my sweet little boy!!  Oh and I forgot to mention, poor Brody had to get knee surgery :(  His little knee caps kept popping out and it got so bad that he needed surgery. So now I have 2 little boys who cant move on their own!  Its like twins!  But he is doing much better and will be back to his old self (only better!) in the next few weeks!  I will update again soon on some upcoming travel plans.... Life is about to get CRAZY!!
