Thursday, July 10th, the three of us flew out on an afternoon flight to South Carolina. Due to bad weather in GA we were a bit delayed in leaving, but thankfully made both of our flights. Nathan was a great little flyer. For the first flight that was 2 hours long he just played and entertained us. For the second flight that was only 30 minutes he took a little nap.
We arrived in Savannah around 1am to Grandmama and Poppa Holbert...and heat and humidity!
Nathan is very hot-natured and now screams and cries when he is hot. So this weekend he did a good bit of that when he got hot - which was a lot. When we would walk from the AC to the heat he looked like he had been splashed with water when the heat hit him!
So after getting to bed around 4:30am and back up again at 7:30am to eat and get ready for the day....we headed to meet all of Grandmama Wanda's co-workers. Nathan got held, loved and photographed a lot - which was just the start of a weekend of holding and loving by people he'd just met. From there we headed to lunch - Southern BBQ! We met Me-Ma & Pa-Pa Mole, Great Aunt Hope & Uncle Herb and second cousin Al there. More loving, holding and pictures!
Next we went by to see my good friend Michelle and her daughter Charley.
Finally we stopped by to see Nathan's only great grandparent, Wanda's mom Vernella - now known as "GG". Nathan could not have been better! He was very calm while she held him several times. He loved his GG and she loved him! After that we headed back to Wanda & Jim's to meet Wanda's cousin Ann - and finally out to dinner that night to call it a day!
Saturday was even busier! We started by heading to Allendale to the Mole reunion where Nathan met Aunts, Uncles, and cousins galore! Way too many to name them all! Right after that we headed to a "meet the baby reception/shower" that lasted until after 6pm with friends and family following us home to get a little more one-on-one time with Nathan.
Sudnday was our final full day in South Carolina and it was just with Me-Ma & Pa-Pa. First we went to church with them and out to eat. Then we headed home for a relaxing day of one-on-one play time.
Monday we got up really early and flew home one two 2-hour flight and Nathan slept through both! I think we had worn him out! It was a great trip - and wonderful seeing all our family & friends.
