Meeting Baby Peter

In early February the Mr. and I got to meet our new nephew Peter. We drove three and a half hours or so, missed an exit, and got "lost" in downtown Chicago. Thanks to the Mr.'s older sister we made it to their house safe and sound. Shortly after we got there we fell in love with Petey. He was so precious and made the cutest little sounds.

The next day the Mr.'s sister and our brother-in-law got us hooked on the T.V. series, Heroes. We watched it for like almost ten hours. Ridiculous I know, but it was so addicting. Later that day Mama Shep, the Mr.'s younger sister, and our nephew came back from visiting grandma in northern Michigan.

We had a great time hanging out with our family. It was so fun to see our nephew Collin. He has grown up so much and has the cutest little personality. It was also fun to see the Mr.'s sisters play the role of mommy. They are sooo good at it. Petey's dad was fun to see too. He loves his little man so much!

Sadly we had to leave knowing it would be a while before we got to see our family again. This living far apart stuff it tough...we miss so much, but we have to make do.
