Refreshed & Rejuvenated!

Well, the reason for my lack of blogging these past couple of days is that my sweet, sweet hubby whisked Kaden and I away for THREE nights to the Poconos for one final "last hurrah" before the arrival of baby #2! We had SUCH a great little family getaway, and it was a really special treat to just get away from life for awhile.

The weather was FAH-REEZING for the first couple of days - especially with us being up in the mountains, but we still had tons of fun swimming, eating :0), vegging, and checking out little shops. On the days that it was warm we explored the area, went on some fun hikes, ate at some yummy places, and just had a blast as a little family!

With having only one wee one who still takes naps and who still goes to bed fairly early, we were able to have a really great balance of family time AND couple time, so that was really nice. It was just wonderful to reconnect and have some great talks about US and about what this next year of life will bring with baby, Kev's internship, graduation, and future ministry.

For naps and bedtime, we rigged a blanket up over Kaden's pack and play and called it his "tent bed!" He thought this was the coolest thing ever, so he loved naps and bedtime - and we were still able to stay up later and watch T.V! Good times! Holy dyin' - that kid talks a lot in his bed! I never realized how much until we shared a room with him for those three nights. He sang to his puppy and told it stories for a good half hour before he settled down!

So anyway, here we are - back home with noses back to the ole grind, but IT'S ALL GOOD! A few days away does wonders for the soul!
