We had some special visitors this weekend!!
Caitlin and Henry made the trek up to Cville for some solid play time. Both the mamas and the babies played hard together!
We sipped wine during naptime, blew bubbles on the porch, picnicked and pranced in the grass at Fridays After Five, watched Mad Men over Sweet Haus cupcakes, went on an hour-long morning run, ate No Bull Burgers at the farmer’s market, splashed around in the community pool, grilled Twin Oaks Tofu and veggies in our backyard, learned to share, had a girls’ night out bar hopping and said a sad farewell on Sunday morning. Can’t wait to get together again!
Tried the new restaurant Just Curry and loved it! Especially the plantains : )
Original for me and the Gluten-Free No Bull Burger for C!
I love the pictures looks like such a fun time together. And love that the kiddos got to hang out too. They’re so darn cute.
this comment is not meant to be snarky or rude, but for someone who “didn’t like babies” (matt), he seems enamored with your son and henry! he’s pretty much a natural.
🙂
matt is a really awesome dad. he gave henry a bath 🙂
No bull burgers? I thought you were a veg!?
They are lentil based and she had the gluten free one
Oops! ???? Sorry! All this time I’ve been reading your blog I somehow missed that detail!
Sounds like a fun weekend 🙂 You both look stunnning on the pictures, by the way!
It looks and sounds like you two had a fabulous weekend! I miss Cville. I can’t wait to come back with Kase and try more restaurants. 🙂
Love all the pictures! Glad you two could spend the weekend together. Looks like fun!
So many great pictures in this post! Serious cute overload :D. You also look gorgeous! Love the striped pink shirt with teal shorts, such a great color combination!
Friendship fun.. the best!
What a great weekend! It’s always so refreshing to have friends visiting, even when there are kids involved.
It’s always fun to catch up with old friends! Looks like you two (or four, if you include the little ones) had a great time together!
What a fun weekend! I love that two of my favorite bloggers are such good friends. 🙂
Baby cuteness OVERLOAD! I’m always jealous of your farmers’ market eats. Not to mention those grilled veggies. Mmm. Do you season/marinate them, or just throw ’em on the grill?
we sMothered them in pesto!
What’s on the eggplant? Paprika? Whatever it is, it looks scrumptious!
Smoked paprika yes!
Yum! I had it one some roasted sweet potato fries last night. Isn’t it just delicious?
I’m curious, what kind of bib is Mazen wearing? And do you like it? I’m sick of cleaning the fabric ones from my messy 10 month old eater and that looks like it’d be so simple to clean.
It’s the Tommy Tippy kind – we love them!
So fun! Do you mind if I ask where you got the striped pink shirt? love it!!!!
It’s from LOFT : )
Very pretty ladies and super cute babies! Love Caitlin’s hair! Seriously making me want a bob! Sounds like you guys had an awesome fun filled weekend!
Looks like so much fun and yes those veggies look amazing! I’m a longtime reader but never comment. Sorry 😉 I’m hoping to nurse my 6 week old son for a year and am always curious about your take on drinking and nursing. I have beer/wine but have been dying for a margarita! And what do you do on girls nights out? Give him a pumped bottle? Sorry for the random question but I feel like you’re a great person to ask 😉 Mazen is adorable btw!
When I go out I usually nurse around 7 and then go – he goes to bed shortly after. So I don’t nurse again for 12 hours. Not that I ever do, but if I wanted to get sloshed I would be sober by the time 12 hours later rolled around : ) Obviously I couldn’t have done this before sleep training or I would have needed to nurse during the night.
Looks like you two had a very full and FUN weekend! I love when friends come to visit from out of town! It makes catching up all the more special!
Such great photos! It looks like you had a great time together and the kids look like they were having lots of fun!
Looks like a fun weekend! The pics of Matt rolling around with the boys are great!
Who’s the girl in the pic with you, Caitlin, and the kids?
Claire of Fitting It All In!
I read all three of your awesome blogs! Neat pic!
Just a heads up-her name is spelled “Clare”
And the link to it is: http://www.fitting-it-all-in.com
Nice pics, sounds like an awesome weekend!
Can I ask what is it that the girl is holding on the second picture that looks like a popsicle? Is is an iphone case? looks like something like that or a baby toy! I just like colorful things and was curious!!
As always all your food looks amazing, you are an amazing inspiration to me on eating healthy and living a balanced life Kath!
Thanks
Ana
It’s a bubbles container!
Such cute pictures!
Your pictures are great. The one of Matt and the two boys climbing him is the best.
You guys are so so beautiful. I want your skin and glow and fit beauty and smiles. Ha…and I’ve had no kids, so u guys are doing something right.
What is the age difference? Henry looks so much older than Mazen, but I’m not good with babies and ages, etc 🙂
I love the pictures of Matt & the boys! So adorable 🙂
Wonderful baby pics! My favorite is the one with a sweet munchkin “planking.” Baby Planking is not a new phenomenon, but always adorbs!
p.s. Our almost empty wine glasses match! =)
What is your fave red wine?
How fun!! Those boys are so adorable together!
Awww looks like you all had a great time, I love time together with friends and family 🙂
They are both two very cute little boys and very pretty mamas!!! Looks like a lot of fun!! As always, love all the eats!! I really need to find Twin Oaks tofu!! I wonder if they have it in Canada somewhere!!
it’s a Virginia Company so I doubt it 🙁
I live in Ohio and our Whole Foods usually carries one or two types of the Twin Oaks. Granted, I’m a lot closer to Virginia than Canada is, but might be worth a check!
That’s good to hear!
What fun! So nice to have someone in the same stage of life with similar interests to bond with 🙂 Oh and I have that same shirt, Kath! Love it!
I always love your pictures. Besides having really great photography skills, you edit them so well and it always makes visiting your blog a lot of fun! So cool to see you and Caitlin together! Also, that picture of Mazen next to Henry in the stroller is adorable–he looks like he’s the one who is tired from a run!
Henry is adorable and looks so smart! Fun for Maze to have his own house guest.
kath, you guys eat a lot of bread. how do you work it out having a gluten-free friend around the house? just curious as I am GF myself. never sure how my hosts feel.
I made a big pot or quinoa to have on hand for her and got her a few of her favorite foods. She brought some of her own bread too. Since she’s not sensitive to gluten dust, having bread around was no big deal.
You have such a beautiful family, Kath!
My son has that remote Mazen is holding. He’s obsessed with it 🙂
That no bull burger does look man-sized!!! Yumbo 🙂
