Back Home

We're finally home! After an exhausting travel day on Saturday and a Sunday spent unpacking and grocery shopping, I finally feel like we are back home. We had a wonderful trip to Tupper Lake, New York. We stayed in a lakefront house with Grandma and Grandpa Pellow, Aunt Monica, Uncle Robert and Hope and Grace. Rowan loved playing with her cousins all day. She took amazingly long naps and Lance and I both took the opportunity to read books and catch up with family. Rowan loved playing in the sand and chasing her cousins around. The water was a little chilly and she wasn't a huge fan. We couldn't have asked for a better location, though the house itself had some interesting issues such as mice scampering about and a dead chipmunk found in the back of the refrigerator. Rowan learned two new words--"bubbles" and "no". I had really hoped she would hold off on learning "no" for a while as she is now fond of expressing her displeasure in everything from diaper changes to sitting in her booster seat. She loved to feed the ducks, though I'm pretty sure she ate more bread than she shared.
