St. Louis Weekend

I mentioned in my previous post that we went to St. Louis for the weekend. What I didn't mention is that we had a blast! Saturday was spent at the zoo with Chris, Megan and Jayden. Ewan actually stayed awake for most of it! Probably the best part is when Ewan spit up on Chris. Chris didn't like it so much, but we all thought it was hilarious. Poor Ewan, I'm sure he'll still be hearing about it from Uncle Chris when he's 15!

Sunday we got up early and went to Laumeier Sculpture Park. It was literally across the highway from where we were staying and Alan really wanted to go. Since we went in the morning, there was hardly anyone there and it wasn't too hot. We tried out the carrier and Ewan did really well. It was a neat place, but next time I won't wear flip flops! We then met Mindy and Aria for lunch at Growlers Pub, which was yummy before going to Grant's Farm. I had never been and have wanted to go so it was nice to take the kiddos and hang out since the last time I saw Mindy was at my wedding. I didn't realize it was like a safari and a zoo in one. Alan and I both wanted to tour President Grant's home, but Ewan was exhausted and storms were coming in so we decided that it would be best to head home so we didn't get in too late. Ewan did awesome in the care on the way there and back. He was only fussy for the last 30 minutes or so. Hopefully he'll do well on the 6 hour car ride to the lake this weekend!

It was really nice to see family and friends that we don't get to see often. Hopefully it won't be another almost 2 years before Mindy and I get to hang out again!

Chris was chasing Alan after Ewan spit up!

Aria and Ewan had too much fun!
