We are very blessed to have grandparents who love our kids and love on us. My mom came a week before I was due and took care of us until 4 weeks after I delivered. I don't know of many moms who would do that, but mine did. I wasn't the most appreciative during her time here, but it was through no fault of her own!
Brian's parents came Memorial Day weekend (May 23 - 26), and we all had a nice time in the moderate PA weather!
Lots of photos, as can be expected!
This has been our only family picture so far:
My MIL generously offered for us to have professional pictures done. For some reason, I did not feel compelled to do that! SHOCKING! For whatever reason, I am totally happy with the picture above. It shows my family, as we really are with a newborn, at our home.
I couldn't deal with finding the right coordinating outfits for all of us. I couldn't deal with dressing my postpartum figure. I couldn't deal with cleaning my house if I decided to hire an on location photographer. I couldn't deal with making sure my baby was SUPER asleep to do all those poses we all know and love for newborn pictures. The thought of all of that stressed me out.
We had a similar family picture with Michael, and I am totally happy with this family picture for Simon.
Here we have several generations of the Besancon Dynasty:
I always joke that if the Besancons were Chinese, they would be a dynasty by now with all their boys.
Here's a picture of me with my momma:
Grandpa looks like he is asleep, but he's not! For some reason, I do not have an "official" picture of Grandpa with Simon:
Grammy with Simon:
I did get some official pictures of my mom with Simon:
I'll have to get Grammy and Grandpa next time they are here!
Michael loved the extra attention. Here's some playing in the yard with our smoker going:
I like that finger in the picture! :)
Michael is playing with kinetic sand. LOVE that stuff. Feels totally cool.
And voila! Grammy comes to visit in mid-June. I'll eventually get to that in the blogposts! :)
