Nathan journeys to Delaware

After we left Baltimore we headed to Delaware to spend two nights with my Mimi (my dad's mother). Shortly after we arrived and got re-acquainted we headed to a local farm. I have to chime in that it takes Nathan no time at all to get acquainted with new people. Even at parties with 15+ new people, he will just start mingling and playing immediately.
The farm we went to, Milford Farm had a place to eat lunch outside, but its main attraction was a little farm where you could see animals. We spent almost two hours there. We ate lunch, ate ice cream, played with the big tonka trucks that they keep in a giant sand box, then we checked out the animals, and strolled around their farmer's market a bit. Nathan mostly enjoyed walking away from us on the gravel road. Not sure what his deal is with roads, but he prefers walking on roads to grass. That evening we ate a spagetti casserole that my Mimi made. Nathan enjoyed it also.
The next day my dad's brothers, Rod and Pat and my cousin Kate dropped by for the day. We had a great time playing around the house. We sat around the lunch table while Nathan napped and learned all about our iphones, we took some group photos outside that came out great!, and we went out to a restaurant that night. It was lobster night at the restaurant and Nathan kept staring at the waitress wearing the lobster hat. We did get a photo of them.

The flight home was not too eventful. I did change a poopy diaper on the airplane toilet. Nathan slept for nearly an hour on my mom's lap. All in all, not too bad. It was exhausting chasing Nathan around non-baby proofed homes for 6 days, but he was such a trooper the whole time that it made it not too bad. I am definitely glad to be home now though.
