Going Through Visitor Withdrawls

Last week was a busy and very fun week.  We had many first time visitors in our new house.  I think Cam has so much fun and same with me as I know I'm going through withdrawls.  There isn't really anything I can do to make this house seem full of other people all of the time.

Our visitors just 4 days after moving into our house were my parents, or Cam's grandparents.  If you didn't think that was enough people for us to enjoy we also sent out Patrick's mother and by brother and sister in law to stay the week as well.

We had lots of walks, lots of fun talking time, and a few dinners.  Most of all, I really got to relax and let everyone else hold Cam and entertain her.  It was definitely a fun week with a few funny hitches (like the fridge and air vent dying.)

Here are a few photos from our busy week.  The part I loved the most was Grandpa and Grandma entertaining Cam in the early morning hours along with taking her on some walks and proudly displaying her.

Grandma's first day back and they were talking up a storm together with tummy time!

Grandma and Cam - She hurt her eye that day.  :(

So you see I was barely holding our sweet little girl for the entire visit.  Lots of photos and lots of fun memories!

  1. Cam sure is a pretty little thing! I'm sure all grandparents, aunts & uncles enjoyed time with her...plus spoiled her rotten! I still have my daughter's first dress. It is the one that I brought her home from the hospital in. Believe me, one day you will look at that dress and think was she really that tiny?! Glad you had a great visit will all of your relatives.
    Take Care,

  2. To see the grandparents eating Cam up like this brings back so many memories for me, Jen. There's nothing like the first grandchild...and in my case, the only grandchild! Watch her grow with them. They will want to see her as often as possible, and I do hope that will happen for all of them.

    Sometimes I get tears in my eyes thinking about not seeing Nicholas as often as I want. But I saw him more in his first years than my parents saw my kids in their entire lifetime. So in that regard, I'm blessed with happy memories. Eat them all up!
