It's funny- last week already seems so far away! Most of Wednesday was spent at Kate's, with trips home for naps. :) We got to the point that R was truly disoriented when we didn't go to Miss Kate's for a meal. :)
At Kate's-
Thursday was actually spent at home mostly- we were supposed to go to Melissa's to visit with her and Jamie, but Luke was sound asleep and Rebekah needed some home time, so we canceled and hung around here. We did stroll thru campus b/c it was lovely, but it was slow-paced and nice. I also got a call from a girl from church who needed help with her 11-month-old boy. She needed us to watch him for a couple hours - no big deal except that I had really been looking forward to seeing Josh and reestablishing our own family time- Sam ended up being there when we got home from the airport (before Josh had gotten to see the kids), but to my surprise, Rebekah did fine with him when she woke up. Luke, on the other hand seemed baffled that Daddy brought another baby (and a crawling one at that!) home with him and took some time warming up to both. :) However, he ended up being just fine. Sam, on the other hand, bless his heart, was crazy tired and ended up crying quite a bit. Poor little guy.
This is just for fun- I finally remembered to take a pic of Rustico- literally across the street from church. You may recall that this is our favorite Italian restaurant and we go about every other Friday to partake of their lunch specials- yummy! All the waiters know us now and love to smile at our kids. Last time, we even met the owner, his wife, and their 2-yr-old little boy ad they even treated us to some ice cream! Luke was a big fan, but did get an ice cream headache. :(
This morning at church, showing off her "craft" and flushed cheeks...she loves her big girl class!!
This is our other favorite restaurant- The Ashvale. It was voted the #1 UK fish place and is wonderful! I LOVE that it is super kid-friendly, too. Lots of toys, TONS of empty areas (on a Sunday afternoon anyway) to explore, and the cute boat you'll see farther down. For 6 or 7 pounds, you can get either a 2 or 3 course meal- Josh gets the 2-course: chowder and fish with peas and fries. I take one for the team and get the 3-course: fried mushrooms, chicken, peas, and fries, and then this wonderful caramel apple pie with cream and ice cream. Wow. Suffice it to say that we did not eat much of a dinner tonight!

You were sweet to take care of the little guy! Can't wait to partake of all the good eating places when we come. Guess I'd better fast for a while before we depart - that pie sounds great. Love the pictures of the kids!
Great pictures as usual! I bet it was hard to have another little one when you were so excited to have Josh home--one of those expectation things that is hard for me too...but I'm glad it went ok!
That first picture of the little mr is my new favorite! Love it. Sweet R's smile is so contagious where she is holding the paper thingy. Too cute. Love you guys!
