We were so happy to have visitors this weekend!
Finally, someone else gets to see Mariella and all of her cuteness! :-) Gordon, Lynette and Riplee came to visit us. It was so nice to have them here, I wish they could have stayed a couple/few weeks with us.
We all went out to eat at a real restaurant! lol It was the first time me, Pat and Mariella went out to a restaurant. We decided to go chow down at the Outback! I have to admit, I was a nervous wreck taking her out into the world. Where people want to ohh and ahh over babies. Cough without covering there mouth. Sneeze… OMG, I hate the sneezing. Chew with their mouth open.
Not only did the germs freak me out. The unpredictable behavior of a baby was freaking me out too. 
So many “what ifs” in my head. What if she cries. What if she throws a FIT! What if she has rocket poo at the table? What if I can’t calm her. What if she wants some of my steak? :-) You get the idea… hahahaaa Well, she was a perfect little Angel. She drank her bottle at the table. I burped her… and she took a cat nap in the car seat. After about 20/30 minutes she woke up and just looked around and joined in on the fun. Phew… life goes on with baby after all!
I got to drink a some Guinness this weekend and enjoy some whiskey too. 
I decided to start weening baby of of the breast, and figured it would be a good time to skip a few feedings. So I did. And I really had a wonderful time hanging out with the family.
Come back anytime you guys and gals! Company is always welcome… we miss everyone so much!
