We had the best Memorial Day Weekend this year. The excitement started Thursday night with the news that Will and Paige were headed to the hospital to have Patrick. So after basically not sleeping all night and checking my phone for updates I decided to start my weekend early and take Friday off.
Friday also happened to be Elle's last day of preschool so combine that with knowing we would be meeting Patrick later that day and our excitement was pretty high!
Elle had a great school year! She made friends, learned a lot and comes home with the sweetest little stories and songs. We were both ready for a summer of sleeping late, staying up late and soaking up our time before she starts Kindergarten in August.
Look how much she has grown!!!!
Makes me so proud and want to cry all at the same time.
Her last day was a 1/2 day so after Ollie and I picked her up we headed straight to the hospital to join everyone in the waiting room.
The kids all stayed entertained as the hours went by with iPads, having PawPaw swing them, walks to Eric's office, the cafeteria, coloring and just watching/listening to the Voss boys. They were extremely entertaining to everyone in the waiting room!
Those crazy Voss boys.
That evening our newest little love, Patrick Dennis, arrived.
Seeing Will as a Dad is the sweetest thing ever.
Mary and I were able to grab Will & Paige dinner and sneak in some solo snuggling time with Paddy!
He is the sweetest little thing ever.
Eric ended up taking the kids to his parents for a BBQ before Patrick arrived Friday night so Saturday evening Eric, Elle and Oliver were all able to meet him for the first time.
Elle brought her phone to take pictures. :)
This little girl was SO EXCITED Paige's entire pregnancy and she immediately fell head over heels for him the second she met him.
She adores him!
Proud Uncle E!
Paige was sweet enough to pack the lovey Elle bought Patrick in their hospital bag and had it out when we arrived at the hospital. Elle was so excited to see him using it!
It should be noted that Oliver was also with us but had no interest in meeting or holding Patrick. Paddy was one month old before Oliver ever acknowledged him and now he loves him. :)
After we left the hospital it was past dinner time and we were all starving. Elle casually mentioned in the car that we should go to her favorite restaurant (Texas Roadhouse) to celebrate her being done with pre-school. How could we deny celebrating this baby girl?!
The rest of the weekend was filled with running errands, playing outside in their pool and heading to Will & Paige's when they got home from the hospital to snuggle Patrick some more.
Such a fun weekend to kick off summer!
