A Fun Weekend

We've had such a fun weekend! Mindy and Jeran and Allison came down to visit us and to celebrate my birthday (and take advantage of the three-day weekend). We spent a lot of time hanging out, playing with our cute babies, and playing Sporcle quizzes.
"We're really good at useless trivia!"
"That sounds like the Briscoe family motto."

She's been showing off the Briscoe tongue all weekend.

It was so crazy seeing how big and chunky and interactive six-month Allison is compared to our three-week Myles. Their lengths are not that dissimilar, but the girth of the thighs is an impressive difference. It was like a peak into the future. She can keep her head up (and arms and legs, like Superman or a boat) when on her stomach. She laughs and smiles in response to playing and specific songs. It will be so fun watching for those developments in Myles' future.

Other weekend highlights included walking on a nice trail not too far from our house - I've been wanting to check it out, and we finally had a good opportunity. Lots of wildlife there, too. Two deer, tons of butterflies, squirrels, and oh yeah, the copperhead snake Chase almost ran over with the stroller. That was fun.
We went to Kara's house for dinner on my birthday. The vegetable risotto was delicious! Kara got me a rocking camp chair for my birthday gift. Yay! I can't wait to sit on the deck and relax in my rocking chair. And cheesecake for my cake - could anything be better?
Kara also purchased a gigantic teddy bear for baby pictures - continual size comparison through the years kind of thing. We had lots of fun with that photo session!

Three weeks old!

So done with this. 

It was a super fun weekend, and I'm so glad to live near enough to one of my siblings to allow for these weekend visits. Thanks, Mindy and Jeran!

Oh, and we took lots of pictures of our babies. :)

There are two ways to love books - through reading or through eating!
