Weekend Getaway

     Ryan and I spent this weekend in St. Louis for a final weekend getaway of the summer. My classes start back in three weeks, and he has one more week of the summer trimester for his program and then the fall trimester begins the first week of September. We spent Friday and Saturday nights in a hotel and went to Six Flags all day Saturday. This time we spent time in both the water park and the amusement park parts of the park. Last time we went, the water park wasn't open yet and it was still pretty cold, so we wouldn't have gone even if it was open. We had a lot of fun, but we missed Rylee like crazy. We spent most of the day Saturday saying, "Look at that; Rylee could do that!" or "Awh, look at that baby; I miss my baby!" I think we came to the conclusion that Rylee will be going with us on any future trips. It just doesn't feel right leaving her behind. It didn't feel so bad when we were gone celebrating our anniversary because that weekend was supposed to be about just us spending time together. This time it just felt like the biggest part of our little family was missing!
     Rylee got her toenails painted for the first time ever Friday morning before we left. She came up to me when I was painting my nails and stuck out her foot and held it perfectly still the whole time I painted her nails. She was so excited! She also had a great weekend being spoiled rotten by her Nonna and Pop. They bought her an outdoor swing to play on at their house and she loved it! They took her out to eat Friday night and she loves that! She sure was worn out from all the fun when we picked her up. She went to bed before 8 last night and didn't get up until after 9 this morning!
