I may have over simplified things in my last post when I said Andy’s parents took Ben for the weekend. In actuality, I headed to Lockport Friday with Ben and all his travel equipment. From here it gets a little complicated :) My friend Allison was back from Italy for the week so I spent the morning visiting with her. We heard that our highschool friend Sarah was having a garage sale, so we popped over to her house. Ben was the charmer as he met Sarah’s mom for the first time and smiled at all the garage salers. After the garage sale, Allison and I met Sarah’s twin sister Heather, at the church she works at. We chatted with her for a little bit before I dropped Allison back off at her house.

From here I headed out to visit my dad, Leslie and Christopher. They were in from Massachusetts, staying at a friend’s house while the friend was on vacation to Virginia. Justin and Kate joined us for lunch and a swim. You can read more about our afternoon and see pics in Leslie’s post. So much fun :)

After Ben woke up from his nap we had a little snack and then packed up all his gear. He headed off with Justin and Kate for Friday evening. First time spending the night with his Auntie and Uncle :) Saturday morning Kate dropped Ben off at Andy’s parents’ house (which is right across the street from Justin & Kate’s apartment).

Ben had a lovely weekend with grandma and grandpa. There was swing time, exploring the yard, splashing in the pool, church on Sunday and much more. Sunday evening we met Andy’s parents at a restaurant along the thruway to do the Benjamin swap.

All in all a crazy weekend for the little guy, but he seemed to have fun! He slept VERY well the next few days we were home :) Andy’s parents took some pics of Ben’s weekend and these were my favorite:
