Tuesday afternoon Nick and I picked Jack up from school (interrupting his karate class-but he didn't mind at ALL) to head to Baton Rouge for the holidays.
Before we got far down the road Nick and I were already hungry for dinner so we pulled off to get Chick-Fil-A...Jack was VERY UPSET about this delay demanding that we wait til we got to Baton Rouge to have dinner with them.
Luckily the peppermint, chocolate chip milkshake helped to calm his dinner stress....but the other two stops were not so easy. Things such as, "But we've already stopped for dinner once...we need to get to Papa and Bebe's." He even made it the whole drive without having an accident in the Pull Up that we had to persuade him to put on "just in case." 
Jack was so excited to see Papa, Bebe, and all their Disney themed Christmas decorations. We were up pretty late but the next morning Jack was wide awake to help Papa make the coffee. The coffee that he used to dip his finger in or take sips...now, he had his own coffee mug. That can be a treat he has when at Papa's...we don't need anymore energy here without back up troops.
After making coffee it wasn't long before the icing was ready to pour on the homemade cinnamon rolls that Bebe made. I'm pretty sure Jack kept wanting to know where the can was to put in the recycle and the icing bag to lick (Yep-Market Street brand's icing comes in a squeeze bag, not a silver can like Pillsbury).
Around lunchtime the Danneman family came over so that we could FINALLY meet baby Dylan. 
So glad to finally get to meet him and to hang out with Deborah and Adam.
Dylan and Nick got along GREAT! Look at those cheeks!!!
Jack and Adam "played" well together as well!
And of course Deb and I did the, "It's been too long~pick up where we left off" thing. Hate that is has to be this way with few and far between personal visits, but we've managed to make it work since first grade...LOVE YA DEB!
9 loaves of bread...is that normal?!? For Bebe's kitchen it is. :)
