A Date With Marme

While Dear Daughter tended to her newborn and the packers and movers for the big adventure to California, I got to have a bit of very special Cullen time. Kate and I met halfway to make the child exchange and Great Grandma came along for the ride.
(but really to meet baby Bennett)

 In the past 30 hours we have:

Played Cars

Played animals

Had fun in the bath

Practiced hitting the right buttons in the elevator

Walked to and from the shop several times

Played chase with the uncles through out the apartment

(sorry folks a floor below us)

Took a walk along the Potomac River

Dropped 2 uncles off at the airport and saw lots of planes

Made friends with lots of people in marme's "tower"

Fixed a few cars at Papa's shop

Had a special lunch at Trolley Stop in Ellicott City, MD

Learned to launch ruberbands with the index finger
Had just a few forbidden snacks

Made a trip to the Choo Choo Store
(alias for the toy store)

Had lots of cuddle time on Marme's bed

Learned how to get the door to the apartment open to the hallway

(thank goodness for the upper dead bolt)

Rearranged the lower cabinets in the kitchen

Found rocks to throw in the river

and totally disregarded nap and bedtime rules.

Then we packed up and headed to the farm.
(and the fun will begin!)
