Visit to Duluth



Abigail and I took our first overnight trip together to Duluth. It was great fun. We left last Thursday and came home yesterday (Sunday). It was a long weekend, but a good one. We stopped in Barnum and met some of my mom's (Granny Maki) friends, they were all excited to meet Abbie. Later that night, Abbie met her Great-Grandmother Verna. On Friday, Abbie and I went over to my friend Tiffany's house and meet the newest addition to their house, Berkley...he is tiny! I know it sounds crazy, but I can't believe that Abbie was that small and it's only been 4 months!
On Saturday we went to Grand Rapids and had lunch with Great-Grandmother Prokosch. The Maki Grandparents and Uncle Mike had a wonderful time with Abbie and were very sad to see us leave. I was very sad to leave as well and wish I could have stayed a bit longer, but Ed was missing Abbie sooooo much. I think Abbie had a good time traveling and only had two mini meltdowns.

It seems that Abbie and Chelsea missed each other this weekend. Chelsea pouted and moped around all weekend and she was very happy to see Abbie when we got home. Chelsea licked Abbie's face like crazy. Then later that night, Abbie seemed equally excited to see Chelsea and even started "talking to her". She watched Chelsea walk around and tried to get her attention, very loudly. It was very funny. Ed and I were surprised, but of course we missed getting it on video!


Overall, Abbie does very well in the car, but the weekend was a bit too much for her and next time I'll make sure she gets a little bit more quiet time (live and learn!). We don't have any plans for this weekend, but it should be pretty quiet we hope.


Wish everyone well,

Sarah, Ed and Abigail
