No bedtimes, No rules and Nothing but FUN!

Boy did Philip have a great week!! To Gigi and Papa Docs house he went for a week to play while Phil and I went with some of our friends to St. Johns for 4 days! Philip of course had a blast at his grandparents house where he got spoiled rotten (but then again isn't that what grandparents are for?!). He of course didn't have a bedtime (as the rule is No bedtimes at Gigi and Papa Docs house) and he got to go to a Braves game with Gigi, Papa Doc, Aunt Mandy and Uncle Scott, and great-grandparents Grandmommie and Granddaddy where he had his first taste of COTTON CANDY (and boy did he LOVE it... he is for sure my child with his love of straight sugar). He also got to play for the night with his great-grandmother Mimi who taught him his animal sounds (his favorite is of course what does the cow say?... MMMMM - can you tell we go to Chick-fil-A often these days?!) and he had multiple lunch and dinners at the Club where he had his favorite meal sgetti which was always topped off with the famous ice cream bar with m&ms. Philip also loved to feed Papa Doc's fish daily with Papa Doc and loved being able to do his new favorite sign "fish" as he thinks it is just so funny! So as you can see... he had a dream week... he probably didn't want to come home but after not seeing my little man for a week... his daddy and I were very eager to bring him home!! Thank you so much Gigi and Papa Doc for keeping our little angel... we love ya'll very much!!

PAMPERS and PACIS FREE
Our trip to St. Johns was amazing of course... the water was so blue and gorgeous and our house was unbelievable and overlooked the Great Cruz Bay! We celebrated with Rebecca and Jay Levell, Liz and Michael Riley, and Katie and Will Taylor and didn't want to come home. The trip was full of fabulous dinners especially our meal at ZoZo's, fruity cocktails (the specialty of course were the painkillers) with virgin ones for me, sun-filled days on Cinnamon Bay Beach, a fabulous boat trip where we went island hopping to the BVI's (life just doesn't get any better than this), having drinks at the ever so famous Foxy's and we actually got to meet Foxy himself while also partying at the Soggy Dollar Bar on the Beach which was voted best beach bar in the world for the last 4 years! All in all you could say we did it all... as we celebrated Jay's 30th bday, Jay and Rebecca's engagement, and Power T's 30th bday in style. It was a trip to remember for sure... hopefully we can make it an annual event!! And just for the record...
1- Jay, you will never be allowed to drive my children anywhere (even where driving is permitted on the left hand side of the road)
2- My answer was clearly BEFORE the buzzer
3- And NO Phil, we are NOT naming our next child Cleve 
XOXO
