Autumn Weekend

We got a call earlier this from Sean giving us their plans for the Bills playoff game against the Chiefs in Buffalo. They decided that he and Ashley would come for the game and leave Andrew home with Ashley's dad. The would bring Autumn with them and leave her with us while they went to the game which was to start at 6:30 on Sunday.

We ended up having a wonderful time with little Autumn. They arrived at our house around 6:30 pm on Saturday evening. We had invited Dave and Donna along with Mary to stop by to see the baby. We ordered pizza from Romeo & Juliet's along with some cookies. Donna brought cookies too. We all had a nice evening together and it was fun seeing little Autumn who was just turning two months old.

Sean and Ashley stayed in the spare bedroom along with Autumn. We hung out together on Sunday morning. The game was starting at 6:30 and they wanted to get there a little early although they were not doing the regular tailgating. The did leave the house around 2:30 pm and it ended up taking them almost two hours to get into the stadium. They got home around 10:30 pm even though they left during the 4th quarter. We had 8 hours to hang out with Autumn and it was a great time. She was very good the entire time. She only fussed a very little bit and only cried briefly a couple of times. Mostly she laid on the floor playing with her baby stuff or cuddling on the couch with Becky. We carried her around the house for a bit but she mostly just wanted to sleep in one of our arms or lay there looking up at her Grammie. Becky a wonderful time feeding her the bottle of milk that Ashely made up ahead of time.

We had sent Sean and Ashley a couple of photos to them at the game of Autumn enjoying her bottle or sleeping nicely on the couch. We really had no trouble with her at all. When they came home Ashley took Autumn upstairs to nurse and to bed. They did not stay up long because they planned to leave very early the following morning. Sean wanted to be home by 11:00 am for an online work meeting. So they got up very early and were on the road around 6:30 am. We were missing her shortly after and we can't wait to spend time with them again. We miss Andrew too.
