Meeting the Fam




Ziggy, D and I flew to PA this weekend to introduce Zig to my family. Zig also got his first party, since my Mom threw a baby shower while we were there. We had such a blast spending time with my Nana, aunts, uncle, cousin, and my mom's friends who are just like family.

While in PA, Ziggy got to meet his YOUNGER cousin... that's right! My brother is finishing his PhD this year, proposed to his girlfriend Heather, then found out she was pregnant, so they bought a house, are getting married and are having a baby due 5 weeks after Ziggy's appearance date. I don't know which congratulations card to get them first! Heather and Todd brought Heather's 4-year-old son, Howard, who added great entertainment to the festivities - and she made a diaper cake with a multi-colored, musical version of Chester on top which is just too cute for words. It'll terrify our pup.

The presents were fun, but the best - apart from seeing my family all together - were by far the white baby blanket that my mother hand-knitted, and the heirloom silver rattle from my Nana.
