The scent of autumn is in the air...

It's already the end of September!  The boys and I are back in Virginia Beach for another long stay (about three weeks) while I work, attend a concert, and possibly a wedding.  Elijah went home Monday after being with us in Savannah, Georgia, and then a few days here in Virginia Beach.

We went on VACATION!  We spent a few days in Savannah, Georgia.  We visited Forsyth Park, The Roundhouse Railroad Museum, walked Riverwalk, ate at Moon River Brewing, swam in the hotel's pool, and just enjoyed some family time.  It was amazing, to have no worries but just the four of us.  Both the boys came down with colds the last day/night we were there, but it didn't really put a damper on things.  Goober enjoyed watching a movie in bed with us the last night we were there (Lion King per his request), and it is these little things I can't wait to enjoy more with him and his brother as they get get older.

The boys - and their daddy - enjoyed some quality time with my brother Keith.  We drove up a day early to surprise my brother when he arrived in from San Diego.  Goober got him good, too!  Well worth it to see the smile on my brother's face when he saw his nephews!

James, our wedding photographer, took some family shots on Sunday.  Should see them next Monday -- very excited!!  Check him out at Eclipse Photography.  He did an amazing shoot wi th Goober when he was 7 months old, and I am hoping he will do Peanut's soon (just have to save up some money!).

Speaking of Peanut ... he's 7 months old, crawling, and pulling himself up!  We are going to have to lower the crib today because yesterday, when my mom went in to get him after a nap, he was standing up waiting for her.  Oh!!!  Where has the time gone with my baby?!

*Working, will return later*

We're going to...

... Savannah!  I am so excited!  This has been on my "to-do" list before we leave South Carolina.  Not knowing if we are going to get picked up in October, I want to make sure to check this off my list.  Since Elijah has to take leave or lose it, we're going in September before I head north to Virginia for three weeks.  Super stoked!

Now that I know we are going, I am getting a list together of things to see/do/eat before we head down there to have a loose plan.  Know anything to check out?  Please send me a message!  I am open to ideas.

Right now on our list:

Places to eat:
The Pirate House
Lady and Sons (Paula Deen's place)

Places to go:
Children's Museum
Forsyth Park
Railroad Museum
Tybee Island

Still researching other places.

So excited :)

It's going to be our first family vacation -- just the four of us -- ever.
