Our Travel Filled Weekend

Me and little Ems had quite the weekend!
We left Friday afternoon for NYC to visit my Aunt Audrey& Uncle in the city and a quick visit with my friend Michelle for dinner. The next morning we got up bright and early for an extremely quick (30min) visit with my friend Gina- who just happened to be visiting NY that weekend with 2month old baby Ruby. Then, me & Ems headed out to New Jersey to watch Felix's games where my Aunt Fern, Uncle David, and cousin Jaime from Long Island came to join me. After watching a morning game, having lunch with the team, and watching an evening game- I drove back to LI with my cousin and spent the evening with them. We got to enjoy the next day together and decided we really should see each other more often since we live so close!
It was great to be able to see Felix and spend some time together while he had a weekend tournament. I hate it when he leaves us alone for the weekend- we get lonely at home without him!
It was an exhausting, but wonderful trip. Emma stayed up way past her bedtime each night- yet was still able to sleep through the night and was not cranky the next day...let's hope she is the same when we visit FL in Dec!!!
We all had a great time, and Emma was an absolute angel- she slept well, enjoyed playing, and seemed to enjoy traveling in the car too!!! And I learned how to get creative while on the road with a 4 month old!!!!!
At the Princeton Pool after playing Bucknell. You would never guess he just lost a game- Felix is still all smiles when he sees his little girl.
And here we are just one year ago at Queens college in NY... practicing with 6 month old Baby Sable for the above photo shoot I guess!!!
At lunch with the team after the first game of the day. Look at my exhausted little baby- and how calm she is in her Daddy's arms :)

We have so few pix of me & Ems together... I take what I can get! We are having dinner in the city with Michelle. I have also become very skilled at eating my meals with one hand!

Michelle & Emma eating pizza in NYC. It was delicious, and we were very lucky to pass a gelato place on our walk home- how lucky can a girl get... pizza and gelato in one evening!!!!

Fun with the camera while packing for our trip.





Emma was a little surprised when I used the "red eye reduction" flash that uses 3 flashes in a row....
