The Trip to Pennsylvania

It's been two weeks since I updated my blog. Bad mommy of Fasu. Today is Monday and three days ago we returned from a family vacation to Pennsylvania to visit Ms. Fasu's dad's family. This was the first time not only for our real family vacation but for dad and I to be on vacation together. With our crazy work schedules, we always seem to miss one another whenever one of us has some time off. Well, no more.

Ms. Fasu was actually quite sick/ teething the entire trip so wasn't her usual cheerful self. She showed her timid nature with her clingness to mommy. I have to say it took me a little bit by surprise because I am used to her going happily to her caregivers at school. The more I get to know my baby I learn she, much like myself, doesn't like changes and tends to be quite frightened when she is in unfamilar waters.
And don't get me wrong, the fasu did have a blast. We went to Fallingwaters, the Pittsburgh Zoo and the aquarium. We went to different restaurants and hanged out a lot with dad's family, which we love and miss so much.
They are such good people and they have tons of love to give to their granddaughter number three (with more on the way, tfu, tfu, tfu).

Babi and grandpa even held a welcoming party for the fasu, which was tons of fun. The Fasu got to eat good (real good), meet the nicest people you can meet and get cool gifts.

Need I say more?

Ms. Fasu about to eat cake for the first time. Surprisingly, she didn't like it. But I say, give her time.

We stayed in Pennsylvania for a total of one week, which was the perfect amount of a great family vacation.
