It was a nice, relaxing Labor Day weekend...the perfect way to wrap-up a wonderful summer, and charge forward into our favorite season...FALL! The weather was incredible...even cool enough outside for blankets early in the morning, with 100% sunshine and 0% humidity all day long. Oh, and did I mention that our Dawgs won BIG on Saturday as well? And so what if it was the first game of the season against a smaller, unranked team...it still feels like it is going to be a good Georgia football season. Finally, cooler weather, college football, no more wearing white...Fall is in the air!!! Errrrr...well, maybe in a few weeks, cause today I think the highs were back in the 90's and it was certainly hot & humid again. Come on Fall! Come baaaack!
Anyway, back to the weekend...so after a delicious (and I do mean delicious...let's just say that steak and lobster tail were on the "Stanford Kitchen" menu that night) family dinner to celebrate May-May (Mary's) birthday on Friday, we then attended (Philip's cousin) Stephanie's wedding on Saturday before heading up to Lake Oconee for the remainder of the weekend. It was there that Kinsley got to go on her very first boatride...and because the guys were already out on the water wakeboarding and surfing, guess who got to take her on that first boatride??? M-O-M. Yep, that's right, I took Kinsley on her first sunset cruise! The ladies climbed aboard the pontoon boat that was left back at the dock, and we decided that we wanted to take a little ride to go and see the guys. I drove us out into the water and we cruised for a bit, but I didn't have to drive back...I got to enjoy time with my girl on the ride back (and thankfully didn't have to dock the boat, either). And do not fear...we had two very tight arms around her at all times and an infant life jacket within arms reach!
Our weekend trip did have a bit of a sour ending, however: at some point during the weekend, Kinsley must have come in contact with a little stomach bug, and has been affected ever since (no, not throwing-up...the other stuff...from the other end). We've been fending off a low grade fever and keeping home from school today and probably tomorrow. I have heard that this is going around, and sure enough my little bug caught "the bug." She is a tropper though...still smiling and giggling all day...and sleeping a lot...and it has had no effect on her eating. We still downed many bottles and ate our pears & bananas today...it's just that not all of it is staying in her as long, if you catch my drift. And while I am not at all concerned about dehydration at this point, I am concerned that this may be a bump in the road of our good weight-gaining...and we have been doing sooo well. Hopefully our baby girl starts feeling better soon.
Until then, here are some more photos of the weekend...starting off at the wedding, and ending with her boat ride on the lake.
Kins and mama...
With Aunt Kelly!
So, do you think she looks like her daddy or what?
I love catching moments like this...Philip with his baby girl.
One of my favorites...probably cause it wasn't posed.
Kinsley with her May-May and Pop.
The Stanford family...minus me (behind the camera)!
