So last weekend was the annual Tomcho Pig Roast. My mother's side of the family goes to my Uncle's every year and he does a big pig roast, we all get together, hang out, drink, laugh, play volleyball, catch up, and relax. I look forward to it every year and I was so excited Ben was here for this one! He finally got to meet the rest of his Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins from my moms side of the family that weren't able to come to my parents party earlier in July.
We had a lot of fun and a little "us" time to enjoy a drink or two while everyone else gushed over the baby! haha it was nice to say "okay, I am going to have 2 drinks today and I won't feel guily about it!" I am not a big drinker to begin with but sometimes I like to relax and enjoy and cocktail but if I had a beer while at dinner since Ben has arrived I struggled with feeling guilty about it.
I always have so much fun when I get to spend time with my cousins, especially Carrie! She is so funny! Eric loves her, also. I am so glad my whole family loves Eric! He has fit right in since the beginning! I think Ben enjoyed himself, also. He was such a good boy (no surprise there!) and did so well with his first sleep away from home! He actually slept better and longer! haha. little stinker!
This weekend we will be going to Cape May with my Uncle Matt, Aunt Cathy, and cousin Emily. They are the ones who host the pig roast each year. I am so excited for Ben's first trip to the beach but anxious about keeping him from getting too much sun! He will only be 5 weeks old and he can't have sun block yet. I am sure it will be fine though!
Things have been flowly smoothly here, which is good. Buddy isn't pooping everyday and I am trying not to worry about it too much! We will see how that goes! That is all for now.. I have tons of laundry to do and packing before we leave tomorrow! this is a rambling post and doesn't have any form to it. haha Oh, well!!!
