Weekend at Grandma & Grandpoppy's

When I was little, we would frequently request that Mom & Poppy "made us a hotdog" - which means that they would pick one of us up and wrap us in a big bear hug from either side! It was most lovely, and Chadmo & I are looking forward to carrying on this tradition with our kiddos. :) So here's an example of a Dylly hotdog with smooches on top! (We've gotta learn to put down the burp cloths during photo shoots - can you tell we have a spitty baby?)

Waking up from a long nap this afternoon - she's (almost) always such a happy girl when she wakes up!

Dylan learned a new trick from her friend Greta on Friday night - sticking out her tongue! For the past 1.5-2 weeks she's been rolling her tongue to the side and chewing on it, but we seem to be suddenly over that phase and on to sticking out our tongue, particularly when smiling. Pretty cute!

Last night Grandma & Grandpoppy watched Dylan while Chadmo & I went on a date - how decadent! We went to a restaurant called Rhapsody in Nelsonville, who would've guessed Nelsonville has a 5-star restaurant?? I had mussels, foccacia, organic chicken with curry fried couscous and brown sugar glazed carrots, and house made blueberry mango sorbet - it was delicious! Chadmo had salmon cakes, foccacia, house made crackers with boursoin cheese, house made pasta with shrimp & mussels, and a chocolate torte - he said all of his was delicious too. And they give you complimentary cinnamon-clove macaroons instead of a mint - YUM! It was lovely to both get to sit down and eat hot, delicious food at the same time. THANK YOU, Mom & Poppy, for babysitting. We've had a lovely weekend at your house, as always. :)
