Two weekends later, Andrew organized a TEDxYouth-Baltimore event. So Lydia went to visit our dear friend Sara Alsup in St. Louis. We stayed with Sara at her Aunt Nancy's, and were totally spoiled throughout our entire visit!! I definitely see a pattern in the way I make friends, you must like to cook really good food. And preferably, you should really like to cook that really good for ME. Sara and Nancy were no disappointment. They really like to spoil people. And boy, were we spoiled.
On our way!
Lydia was a trooper on our flights. She's getting to be quite the little flyer. :)
Sara took us to a great little part of St. Louis, where we walked, and window shopped and ate at a great little cafe. We also stopped at a Letter Press workshop that did some pretty cool work. Lydia and I both tried out their mustaches.
Lydia has gotten big enough that she can ride in her stroller like a big girl! I think she still prefers the car seat, because she can see me, but sometimes it's nice to have a change of scenery.
Cute cafe we stopped for chocolate peanut butter bars and hot cocoa.
Forest Park. Always lovely.
There was a Christmas Miracle that took place on Saturday! We had been out running errands, and I put my phone on the bumper while I put the stroller in the trunk. I forgot about it, and I couldn't find it when I got into the car, but figured it was somewhere in the diaper bag. Little did I know!! When we got back to Aunt Nancy's (where we were staying) look what I found!! Amazing that it stayed on the bumper for more than 5 miles of driving. Phew!
Sunday we visited the Botanical Gardens: so beautiful! We loved the Japanese gardens (which are NOT pictured) and were so glad that we took the time to go visit. Perfect Sunday afternoon.
Meanwhile, Andrew worked hard at home. :)
