The Weekend.

Mike and I spent the weekend mugging our yummy nephew.   We drove down to New Plymouth on Friday night and then back to Auckland on Sunday afternoon, so it was a bit of a flying visit, but it was well worth it :)


Our wee nephew is so gorgeous and he has changed so much since we saw him last.  He wriggles almost nonstop and he is starting to smile as well – he makes you work for them though!


We definitely made the most of him while we were there.  We smothered him with cuddles and kisses and loves…




Uncey Mike even took him for his first “horse” ride.


Sarah looks amazing.  And she is such a good mom; my nephew is a very blessed little boy :)


It has always been hard leaving for home and not taking her with us, but this time was definitely the toughest.  It’s hard being so far away and not being able to pop around to her house like I thought I’d always be able to and especially now that there’s a small person in the picture, too.  It’s safe to say I imagined things a lot differently, but Mike did remind me on the way home to be thankful she’s only a five hour drive away and not in another country.  I am very grateful for that!
