We have had a busy past four weeks to say the least! When Annabelle was a week old we made a trip to Columbus, Ohio to visit with my paternal grandparents while Brandon was on a business trip. I had some much needed help and my grandparents were able to meet their first great grandchild. We were then on our own for a few weeks and luckily the weather was pretty fantastic in Delaware. We were able to go on walks at the park and when it was cold we ventured to the mall to keep up the exercise routine. Annabelle loves to walk and she usually falls asleep right when we get in the car (on the rare occasion she doesn't it makes for a not so fun car ride!)
Last week, we were able to make an unexpected visit to Cincinnati to visit with family and friends. It was great to show off our baby and to see family we hadn't seen since September. We had a great time and are looking forward to making another visit for Easter. Brandon started a new job this week in Pennsylvania, so he leaves earlier and gets home later, but he's happier and for that I am grateful! I start back March 12th and have mixed feelings about leaving Annabelle. I'm excited to get back to coaching, but I love seeing every change and expression on her face. Its unbelievable how fast she is growing!
We're hosting my grandma this week and she has been a great help! I was able to show her around Wilmington a bit yesterday and hopefully we'll be able to go to the zoo tomorrow. Having help is definitely a great thing and having Annabelle around family is even better.
Brandon and I are getting back into the workout routine this week. I'm going to try swimming tonight - definitely in the warm pool. I think it will be easier on me than running and I'm excited to get back to something I enjoy! I'll leave you with an Annabelle video!
