Passover in Pittsburgh


This past week, we were lucky to spend most of Passover in Pittsburgh!  We had such a great time with everyone and now that we are back in Chicago, we really miss everyone! 


Riley is getting to be quite the traveler and he already knows that when we get on the plane, its time to warm up our wings and get ready to flap.  Now that he is older, he is super wiggly and just wants to check out everything.  That means its harder for us to control him but he likes to make friends in the row behind us and everyone likes to say hi.


We had such lovely seders and it was so nice to be surrounded by friends and family.  Riley was present for the 4 questions and promises to work on them for the next years.  Our favorite part was playing with the plagues!


Later in the week, we got to just spend time with family and partake in our own "Take your grandson to work day"!  Riley had so much fun spending time with Bibi and Zee and their office friends!


Since we were out of town and missing our regular Gymboree class, we got to join the pittsburgh class and make new friends.  Bibi even joined us and her favorite part was bubble time.  She was trying to catch the sugar bubbles on her tongue - we were trying to pretend that we didn't know who the crazy lady was!


And what trip to the grandparents house would be complete without a sink bath?  This one is  the result of an attack from a spoonful of peanut butter!  Something else that made RIley happy at home?  Playing peek-a-boo with GeeGee!

Riley is now minutes away from crawling!  He gets up on all fours and looks prepared to pounce.  So far, he is still scooting, but we know that any day now, he will figure out how all of his limbs work together and will be on the move.  Click on the link to see how he's getting a little help: Bibi and Zee teach Riley to crawl

We had such a good time visiting everyone and can't wait till our next family get together!

We had such a great time with ya"ll here! Now the house is significantly quieter, but not a lot neater. I guess that's my fault. Actually the only reason it's quieter is that BiBi and Zee aren't making all of those encouraging baby sounds!

Miss you all!
