Weekend in Ithaca


Thanks to Todd and Jess for these pictures from the lake this summer of Mama and Beckett.



Auntie Tara and her (real) niece Sierra came over last week for some cuddle time with the babies. Sierra proved herself worthy babysitter material, reading books and engaging both boys in play and reading.



Peekaboo on the stairs.



 As Daddy Lovebo was in Philadelphia for another Temple LLM weekend, I decamped with Theo and Beckett to Ithaca for some help and support. Last night we had a wonderful dinner with Taf and Fred, but Beck started feeling yucky and fell apart quite quickly after hors d'oeuvres. He fell asleep in my arms at dinner, coughing and sniffling and getting hotter and hotter. His temperature before I put him to bed was 102.0, which earned both Beck and Theo some ibuprofen before bed. When Beck woke up at 2am his temperature was down to 100.8. He woke up at 6:30 in great spirits, giggling and wrestling all over the bed after nursing. He still has an awful cough and kind of declined over the day but still had a good day reading Make Way for Ducklings (over and over and OVER again) and having the kind of diaper explosion I had heretofore only heard of.




We had a great visit this morning with Jess, Todd and their adorable and sweet girls, Emma and Sophie. The boys had been enjoying pushing themselves around on their new ride-on toys, but Emma and Soph were kind enough to push them around, leaving Theo and Beck only to lift their feet up and enjoy the ride.
