At the end of July my whole family got together in bloomington to meet and celebrate new baby Cole. It was really nice to only be a few hours away for a short weekend trip like this. We were able to leave thursday night and go back sunday afternoon – phil worked some overtime during the week and didnt even have to use vacation days for the trip. Something like this from Baltimore would have been much more involved, and we would have lost much more sleep. This trip was a piece of cake!
Its always a blast getting together with my siblings and its getting really fun for all the cousins now that some of them are old enough to play together. Can I also just say that Phil and I are pulling ahead in the ‘whos providing the most grandchildren’ race. Andrew and Jessie are WAY behind (as are all the Wozniaks). I’m really excited that#3 and Cole will be so close in age so they will each have a playmate at future reunions. (Also — Maggie and I agree that maybe “#3” is a fine and awesome name for a child? Its like a code name. He’ll be the next james bond? Anyway…) Cole is an adorable little chunker — it was so fun getting to spend time with a new baby again before #3 comes. Especially such a happy laid back little guy like Cole! Phil and Maggie are naturals and make a great parenting team. The kids were really excited to pet his feet and sing him songs. I kept trying to reinforce that baby brother would be here soon and be tiny like baby Cole – they were really excited — but were equally excited about all the baby toys like the bouncer and play mat. It reminds me to get some of that stuff out now so the kids get used to it again and willing to share with the baby when the time comes.
Cheers to family!
