A weekend away

We visited Andrew and Natalie's cousins and parents this weekend. We explored the Milwaukee Zoo on Friday and enjoyed a family hike on Saturday. The weather was unseasonably warm but the fall colors were glorious. It was quite the experience with 4 kids (which included 3 10-month old girls), two double strollers on Friday, four baby carriers on Saturday, 4 kids in highchairs (that was only because Andrew decided that since everyone else was being fed in the highchair, he should as well), lots of diapers, toys, and fun. Natalie had a good time playing with her cousins and trying out some different toys. She didn't seem to mind sleeping in a pack and play or being in a different house. She did wake up a number of times Friday night, but then again, so did Andrew. All in all, Natalie's first overnight trip after coming home went very well. Here are some pictures from the weekend.

Ready for the zoo!


Three girls, one pancake. Sometimes it is just easier to bring the tray to them.


Four adults, four kids, four carriers, one hike.
