Last week we were able to spend time as a family at the Lund Cabin in northern Minnesota. It was a much needed week of relaxation and family time. The weather was a bit cooler than we had hoped (Brandon and I actually skiied and kneeboarded in 58 degree weather) but we had a blast. We spent all week with my parents, sister, brother-in-law, and 5 month old nephew. BJ was very interested in playing with his cousin, Anson, but we kept a healthy distance most of the week since BJ had viral conjunctivitis- isn't daycare great?!? Despite the cooler weather the boys got to swim some. BJ really enjoyed it (unless it was too cold). He floated in his baby float, splashed in the water, made sand castles, rode with mommy on the tube behind the jetski, even drove the jetski with daddy. He loved the water, the great toys Grammy brought, and playing with mommy and daddy all week. The only down side was sleeping in a pack-n-play in our room all week, and the naps his terrible parents made him take (oh and the bath in strange colored water- it is red tinted up there in the iron range). We went on a few walks, played lots of cards at night, ate well, and had a great time. I even read a great book during the week- Into Thin Air- thanks to Miranda and Jason for recommending it! After our great week off, it was tough to get back into the swing of things- especially having to go back to daycare. It seems separation anxiety has hit in full force, but BJ has survived! We'll see how it goes when mommy starts back on inpatient service and has nights she doesn't come home starting next week.
