IA Weekend

We had planned to make a trip to IA the weekend of Jan. 12... instead we got a whole lot of snow! After that our weekends were booked with Disney on Ice, and misc. other events so the weekend of Feb. 17th we were finally able to make a trip. We needed to visit great-grandmas and pick up a bed for Kinnick's new room. Because we needed to pick up the bed we had to drive 2 vehicles.... so the kids and I decided to get an early start (leaving just after lunch time). They enjoyed some ipad time as I finished packing and loading the car. They were so cute I couldn't resist a picture!


The kids were beyond excited to see Liam--he was pretty excited to see them also! He had just started crawling this week. The kids had so much fun playing together.


Our weekend was pretty low-key. Lindsey and I managed to sneak away to a move and do some crafting. The kids had LOTS of play time. We had planned to visit both great-grandmas on Sunday but had to change plans last minute b/c Sadie was throwing up during the night Saturday. The boys went to church and lunch with Great-Grandma DePauw and to pick up the bed. Us girls (with Liam) enjoyed a lazy pj day.


Sadie ended up being fine by Sunday night... just a quick stomach bug (thankfully no-one else got it!)


Due to his recently aquired skill of crawling, Liam took a few falls. Due to the crazy Gorsch kids being in his house all weekend, he took a few thumps. He was all shades of black and blue by the end of the weekend but it didn't keep him from being his smiley self:


Our trip coordinated with President's Day weekend. Marc had the Monday off so we made a day of it and stopped at the Iowa Children's Museum on the way home. The kids loved playing:












A fun february weekend... and a great break from working on the house!
