This was our first flight with Lillian since she was able to move around and it proved to be an eventful trip.
She had to sit in her "own" seat and preferred drinking her juice out of an airplane cup rather then her sippy cup. With her very secure cuddle strapped (no official seatbelt for her since she was technically a lap child) around her belly she enjoyed watching the plane land with Pa.
We finally compromised and squished her between Madi and I in her "own" seat.
A quick lunch at Cracker Barrel was our only stop before arriving at Beth and Sean's.
Throughout the weekend we enjoyed visiting the nearby caboose.
With Big Sister Madi on top of the world, Lillian was sure to hold on tight until someone came to rescue her.
Where did Madi go?
We also enjoyed the continual entertainment of the interactions of the cousins: Madison, Lillian, and Loki.
Especially Lillian and Loki- no loops for you!
Can I pet the puppy, please?
Nice puppy.
Which one will jump first....
Catch the bubbles- this was especially hilarious since both Lillian and Loki tried to catch the bubbles to eat them.
The beautiful weather was perfect for long walks on the near by trail.
It was great to meander through the woods, laughing and racing together.
Of course there is always time for a break
and some acorn collecting.
Lillian preferred walking with Nana
or riding on Pa's shoulders.
Our last evening together, we shared a family meal of homemade spaghetti, wilted lettuce, garlic bread, and warm chocolate chip cookies with ice cream and playing games together.
Pa, Omi, Madison, Uncle Sean and I enjoyed rather long game of Phase 10.
Look out for Omi's monster face- she was not winning.
Meanwhile, Lillian and Daddy enjoyed playing with the Iphone in the living room and watching football. Lillian loves pushing the button to light up the screen.
It was a short weekend trip but a great chance for some family bonding.
Can't wait for Thanksgiving.
