I'm Ba-ack

So, this weekend got off to a great start! Thursday when we were on our way to pick up Spencer, we got a call that there was projectile vomit. We dismissed it as our overly-cautious daycare. Umm...wrong. The evening bottle before bed was followed by serious projectile puke. As was the morning bottle. (Note: it was Mommy doing the feeding BOTH of those times. Fun stuff). One quick call to the doc, and Travis and I were on our way out of town. Nana, Poppy and Grandpa had it covered. Seriously, if Travis and I made it out alive, they could manage with Monkey for the weekend. Nothing to cancel a trip over, right?

Short story: Monkey's ear infection never went away and the doc thinks he had a tummy bug. So, he's still on the meds, and his tummy is fine!

Daddy and Mommy meanwhile went on a much-needed trip to Napa! Daddy had promised to take Mommy there ever since the Freed wedding last summer when Mommy was DD for all her non-preggo friends! This time, Mommy was NO DD :) We had a blast, and enjoyed 3 full nights away from Monkey. We missed him like crazy, but were glad to have some time to ourselves.

And now, the pictures. The first place we visited? Elizabeth Spencer. Need I say more?

Mmm...Mumms

Our bike tour day began at Chandon (i.e., more champagne)

The next day we went to a castle:

And because no post would be complete without the Monkey, here he is with Nina (Cristy) and in his super cute PJs she got for him:



And for those of you that care, Monkey did not advance to the next round of his picture contest. I guess there are just too many other people out there with nothing better to do than vote, vote, vote. That's the last photo contest I enter him into!
