Busy Busy...

I know it's been a while since I posted. Things have been crazy to say the least. Joe and I had the chance to get away for a little vacation to Leesburg, Virginia (aka "DC wine country"). It's a really pretty area that is packed with vineyards to explore. We stayed at a beautiful resort/spa and pampered ourselves a bit with some nice dinners, sleeping in, and even some time at the spa together. It was really nice to have some couple time, but of course we missed our baby girl. Our vacation did end a bit early when we got the call about Joe's dad having a heart attack. We headed straight to St Lukes Hospital from Virginia but were so glad we got to see him that same night. Joe wouldn't have rested easy until he saw his dad in person and saw he was okay for himself. We are SO grateful he's okay.

The following weekend- Memorial Wknd- was also packed. We took another trip up to visit Joe's dad and to let Dyllan spend some special time with her cousin Payton. And we took a trip to New Jersey to visit our good friends the Van Fleet's and their new baby, Keith Jr. There's no doubt we've had a lot to keep us busy....

A nice dinner in Virginia...no cutting up food into bite-sized pieces or having to order something Dyllan would "like too." Even so, we spent half our dinner talking about a precious little girl!


Cheers!! Enjoying a glass of house wine at Tarara Winery...


Cousins!! Dyllan and Payton playing in the pool together...




Loving the sprinkler too...


During our visit to NJ we took a nice little stroll to the park. Carissa pushed her new baby Keith while Dyllan pushed her own little doll stroller....

Out for a Ride

All is well here at the Getz household and we've really been enjoying this nice weather. Today we took a trip to the park and then went out to dinner for Mother's Day. Yesterday we went for a bike ride as Joe just recently bought a bike seat for Dyllan. She wasn't totally crazy about having to wear the helmet but got used to it. I snapped a few pictures the day Joe bought it and took her for a little test run around the neighborhood....


She looks like she's trying to hold on here...


But she got pretty comfortable with it pretty quickly



And here she's actually smiling and waving to me as they ride past!
