Busy Weekend!

Finley was busy as a bee this weekend as she met many extended family members for the first time. Most importantly, though, she was finally introduced to Trimont! We stayed with Grandpa Tim and Grandma Belva and on Saturday, we drove into town to visit Great Grandma B. We ended up going to Great Aunt Angie's house to visit with cousins and she was held by more people in one day than she has been in her entire life! Later that night, she met Great Aunt LuAnn and Great Uncle Tom while mom and dad went to the Bergen Bar for a big old steak dinner. Thanks to breastfeeding, I was able to eat an entire salad, half of a 14 oz. steak, a twice baked potato, 3 jumbo shrimp, and a few drinks without even feeling the least bit full! It truly is an exciting culinary experience when your stomach is a bottomless pit. On Sunday, Grandpa Kevin, Grandma Brenda, Auntie Megan and Auntie Hannah traveled to Sioux Falls, SD, to celebrate Easter with the Skancke's. Finley met her Great Grandma Joyce and Great Grandpa Bud, as well as her crazy Great Aunt Gloria and more cousins. Maybe the best part of the entire weekend (at least to her exhausted mother!) was when she slept the entire 4 1/2 hours home, then slept from 11 pm until 5:30 am.

Today, I was able to get away for a short while to enjoy a much needed massage. Grandma Brenda helped her smile and try to coo while I was gone. Since Finley has grown so much in the last couple weeks, many of her newborn clothes don't fit her anymore, so we decided she needed to go shopping when I got back. We bought many new adorable outfits and mom made me promise I'd take a picture of Finn in each new outfit to post on the blog. Be on the lookout for a virtual fashion show in the coming days :)
