We also went to the Holocaust Museum, which I would highly recommend to anyone. It is an extremely humbling and life-altering experience. Liam was so, so good and after viewing the exhibit at a more rapid pace with Grandmichaele, was very patient hanging out in the lobby with her while Taylor, Papa, and I took a bit more time.
This weekend was spent down at VA Beach, visiting Mimi, Pops Basye, and Momma, who has come through two surgeries in the past week. We had a lot of rain on Saturday, so the day was spent indoors...something that just about kills Mr. Man. He did find some ways to entertain himself though. He took his cool ride for laps around the downstairs:
and managed to check out Momma's cool new toy (she let him borrow it):
While Taylor and Pops Basye were busy running errands all day, we were able to gather the Basye men together for a quick moment:
Last, but not least, no day would be complete without a bath and snuggles with Mimi:
Today was much nicer and Liam and Pops Basye especially took advantage of the great weather. After a hearty breakfast of Mimi's french toast:
Mimi and Pops Basye showed Liam the train set that Taylor used to play with when he was little (yes, they kept it, along with many of Taylor's other toys. Pretty neat, actually):
Liam really enjoyed it:
Afterwards, Pops Basye took Liam to play in the park for awhile in a wagon that he acquired for Liam. Liam had never been in a wagon and loved it! After their trip to the park, they spent some time in the backyard picking up leaves:
All in all, a great time was had. Being out east has been so great so far. I think one of my favorite things is that Liam is finally able to spend a lot of time with his family. He is such a sweet little boy and I hate having him miss out on so much when we live far away. We are taking every opportunity of this move to allow him and us to be with family and are really enjoying it. As you can tell, Liam is adjusting well and loves all his family members.
