Our Mini Vacation

We enjoyed a little time away last week. After the 4th, Keith and I took vacation Thursday and Friday. We had two and a half days with the bug and then two days on our own.

4th of July was hot and sticky as it usually is. We headed to the Webster parade. Liam actually seemed interested in everything that was going on around him for the first 30 minutes or so. The rest of the time was spent chasing after him. I know next year we will be front and center as he tries to collect as much candy as possible.
Warning: Picture overload!

Later that evening we went to my mom's and enjoyed some "pool" time and a BBQ. What a bummer that the fireworks were cancelled. I really hope they decide to set them off another day so Liam can have his first experience.

On Thursday we headed to the zoo early to make sure we saw the new sea lion sound before it got to crazy. Very cool!

Liam enjoyed the train ride.

And thoroughly enjoyed the carousal.

Later that afternoon we headed to Tilles park to play in the water.
I think after two big days, Liam was exhausted. He had a tough time going to bed so we decided to take it easy on Friday just playing around the house.
We dropped Liam with the babysitter around 1:30 and headed downtown. Keith and I booked a room at the Marriot for the weekend and it was straight to the pool. The rest of our little weekend away included, Baileys Range, Cardinals game, more pool, Rosalita's, casino, Four Season's rooftop bar, more casino, and The Bridge. It was really nice to have a weekend just Keith and I. (although we did meet up  with friends on Friday night.)

Is it bad I look this happy to be baby free?!

Next adventure on the horizon: 4 days at Table Rock Lake with Keith's family, immediately followed by 4 days at the Lake of the Ozarks with friends. Is it bad I am already ready for my next vacation?!
