Visiting Aunt Whitley ("Wiwi")

August has been a +/- month for me in terms of my work schedule. I'm either in the ER all the time or not at all for a few days. It's one of the few months I get a chance to go out of town and I finally grasped the opportunity to visit my former roomie Whitley in Lexington before she leaves the South again.

Aunt "Wiwi" is one of Lucas' absolute favorites and spoils him like no other so of course we had a great time. I'm not sure Lucas wanted to come home with me, but luckily I'm still stronger (for now).

Whitley is known for her baking skills and is always keeping everyone well fed so of course a warm batch of chocolate chip cookies was waiting on us when we got there. Mmm. Not to mention that Whitley baked more cookies for us on day #2 while Lucas and I were both napping. I think I'm going to trade in my curent roommate for my old roommate... no offense Matty, you just need to work on your baking skills.


Cookies, new toys, and Muppets on TV (life does not get much better for a 1.5 year old)


Whitley's muppet collection. Missing is Lucas new favorite Beaker (known as "Mee-mee")...he was napping. Lucas loved these!
