In about a month, Josh and I are going on a getaway to Boston! We are so excited. We have not been on a trip just the two of us since Jack was born. It is time!!! Josh has been to Boston one time for business, and I have never been. We thought it would be such a fun place to visit for a long weekend. I am taking suggestions now, (If I still have any readers out there) :). I think we have some good dinner places to make reservations, but would love some lunch spots! Also, I know we will DEFINITELY go to the Kennedy museum and do the freedom trail, but would love some other fun things to do.
In other news, we have a new nephew! Josh's sister had a precious baby boy last week, McCay. We love him so much. So, now we have 3 boys on the Whelan side. Jack, John, and McCay. Christmas is going to be wild!!! But, they will have so much fun growing up together. We are so blessed.
And, Jack man is officially walking, and pretty much running. He literally does not stop. Moms- do not fear; if you have not lost your baby weight by the time your child walks- YOU WILL. Trust me. The child has more energy... He has started talking a little too. He has been making lots of new noices and babbling for a while now. He has said "Mama" and "Dada," but we never new if he meant it in relation to us. But, I think we are getting there. The other day he said, "Go," when we got in the car, and he said "Bye." So, I hope he will be a little motor mouth soon. I really want to know what that little booger is thinking! If I had to guess it would be, "Those suckers; I have them completely wrapped."
How many times have I said I will be back with pictures? Does anyone believe me anymore??? Probably not. Don't blame you, Mom. It will probably be a few weeks, if I survive these next two weeks that is.... At least I am not dramatic.
Big post coming up soon!!
Have a great weekend and GO REBS!!!!!!
