Bassett, the ER and a shower...a full weekend.

Well it was an interesting weekend to say the least. It started off a little slow on Friday morning, the weather wasn't "working with us", we had to pick up the Yukon at the dealership and didn't end up getting out of town until 11am - much later than we had hoped, and about 6 hours after Olivia got up. We did however surprise Grammie at her office, she took Olivia around and introduced her to all her work friends and even tried to weigh her on their postal scale, but it didn't work - we think she broke it - ha!

Brad was finally starting to feel better and was able to even enjoy the yummy food at Olivia's Church Baby Shower - the ladies at Fort Trial are so generous and caring, Olivia received a ton of nice stuff, even a pack of size 6 diapers (we didn't even know they made size 6 diapers).

It looks like Brad over did it with the yummy shower food, he landed himself in the ER on Sunday, he was dehydrated and spent a few hours hooked to an IV - good news, he is feeling MUCH better now. Being that Brad frequents the ER, he now has high standards and was less than impressed with the ER at Martinsville Memorial Hospital.

We had great plans to stop at Chesterfield Berry Farm on the way home from Bassett on Sunday, but since we didn't drive back to Richmond until Monday, that threw our Pumpkin Picking Plans right out the window, we feel like terrible parents, we haven't even gotten our daughter her first pumpkin yet - that's what happens when you travel a lot in October.

We are looking forward to YaYa's visit, she arrives tomorrow and will stay for over a week while Brad is out of town. Also, Leigh has committed to a new role at Capital One and will be going back to work on January 7th, she is excited about the opportunity, as she will be working with a lot of the same people, however she is nervous about leaving Olivia, but she knows its for the best, plus, Olivia will be almost 6 months old, she will be ready to hang out with some other kids.
