Olan and I started yoga classes this week.
Our first class was really fun, he especially enjoyed the infant massage bit that we did at the end. He was grinning away with his eyes WIDE open the whole time I was massaging him. I think that he also enjoyed having his little legs out. This kid loves to be naked, or at least bare legged, which is hard to do with a fall baby. The yoga classroom was very warm so it was the perfect place to strip him down.
We'll definitely continue to go and Aly and Isabelle too once they arrive on the 9th. As far as how much actual yoga I got to do... probably not much :) But it's nice to be able to take breaks to feed him, change him or play with him and everyone else is doing the same thing.

And then there were three (and two cats)
We had a great visit! The Vermont grandparents have headed home and we've been settling back into life on our own again.
It was a great time for them to visit, Olan has just started recognizing people and giving a big smile if he feels it's warranted. He had lots of smiles for his Grandpa Collins and Nana Barb.
We enjoyed the visit too, it's always nice to have more hands to give the baby to if you'd like to go have a shower or have something to eat. It was nice to hear more about what Adam was like as a baby too, it seems as though they are very similar.
We did lots of wandering and gabbing and all the grandparents took a trip to the valley together. We celebrated American thanksgiving in Bedford with two turkeys, one deep-fried and one done in the oven. As per usual, an incredible meal!!! We also took Olan to his first concert. Tom Jackson played a Christmas concert at the church where we were married. Olan seemed to enjoy it, he was the youngest person there! It was nice to start getting all Christmasy too.
I'll attach one picture from the visit. This is of the grandfather who was unsure at first if he wanted to hold the baby, this was taken towards the end of the trip... he looks pretty comfortable now doesn't he?
