Auntie Alexandra

One of my very best friends, Alexandra, came to visit for the first time since James has been born. And let me tell you, they absolutely adored each other.

We had a fun filled weekend of shopping, overindulging in food, and catching up. It was a long overdue trip, and I was so excited to have such a good friend come visit. I am learning though, that although I am still loved, I am not the one to see anymore.

So, we took James shopping and out to eat and made sure to have plenty of play time. Alexandra is GREAT with babies, which was a huge help at bedtime!

She fed James his carrots. I slipped Zucchini in there, but nothing gets by him.

He got used to them though and was a good eater.

And Alexandra was a good feeder.

Then we bathed the baby boy,

and put him in his jammies.

We put James to bed (which he was not happy about) and were so excited about our girls-night-in, but couldn’t keep our eyes open past 10:30! Lame, I know.

While we were shopping, Alexandra found (what we thought was) the perfect Halloween costume. We couldn’t help but try it on him!

Even Lynyrd joined in on the fun.

But this little duckie remembered last Halloween,

and was less than enthused to reunite with his costume.

After the costume got stuck on James and then he choked on the fuzz, I decided this in fact, won’t be his Halloween costume. It was fun while it lasted though!

Thanks for coming to visit, Alexandra! We had a wonderful weekend, and can’t wait to come visit you in Atlanta… and go to the Farmer’s Market. :)
