Before we took off for the weekend Piper thought she'd stretch her legs...
And she did great! The drive up was a bit rough in places, but we can all feel the difference a few months makes. After loading up the car with everything I could think of (though I managed to forget some biggies) we headed to the Front Range for a birthday weekend for me.
First off, we had to catch a visit with Jenn, Dave and Z...
Are they stinking cute, or what?
Sweet Z going with the flow, sharing toys...
And yes, after the Pearl Street Mall, we took the girls to Sushi.
Cooked for her, but not for me!
Love this. While Jenn ran to the post office, Josh took kid duty.
After that, back to the Auntie's house to play!
Dog Toys!
And a dog!
Meet Fred, the newest addition to the family.
Fast friends.
Freddie was awesome with Piper and she loved him to death.
I caught her staring into space, something she does frequently.
I do too.
What can I say.
Only the Aunties would have a huge gold pig.
Walking with Aunt Amy
and then...
The Park!
The next day Piper hung out with Da-da while Aunt Amy and I got every kind of pampering imaginable. It was lovely!
An upon our return?
Piper was unfazed.
As if I had been there all day.
Getting so big this one.
The trip ended with a little book store time.
The ride back was MUCH better than last time. Not without tears,
but much better just the same. We even had giggles as we drove back into town.
A lovely weekend indeed!
Next up Piper's Birthday!
I've been planing and scheming for months now,
but I still can't believe her big day is just around the corner.
