Joshua and Benjamin were the only siblings who hadn't met Benaiah yet and I wanted them to be able to meet him while he was still little. So early one morning I drove to the airport with my little buddy and flew back to Pennsylvania for 6 days. Benaiah did wonderful on the plane rides, only waking up to eat and then off to dreamland again!
We had a very fun filled schedule that began on Wednesday with meeting Grandpoppy and Grandmommy at Longwood Gardens.
Meeting Grandpoppy! :)

We met Pop-pop and Mom-mom at a restaurant in Maryland so they could meet Benaiah.
Brother James and Sister Hazel were with Pop-pop so they got to meet Benaiah as well! Benaiah and Brother James actually share a birthday and as it turns out, a nickname too! Brother James's nickname is "Buster" and Justin calls Benaiah "Buster" sometimes too!!

Benjamin came downstairs one morning and went straight to give Benaiah a hug!
David recently bought a few ducklings at Green Dragon. There was one surviving duckling out of that batch (the larger one with the black spots) and she has now become the "mother" over the new batch of seven more ducklings.
They are so fun to watch waddle around the yard!

Brother Roger and Sister Glenda hosted a lovely picnic at their house on Saturday. It was so fun to visit with the cousins again!
There is a small pond there that everyone likes to fish in...Serenah wasn't too sure what to think of this little sunny before Daddy released it! :)

Grandpa and Grammy also got to meet Benaiah at the picnic but unfortunately I didn't get a picture of Grandpa holding him :(

So happy you were able to come for a visit! Loved meeting Benaiah!
Miss you!
It's fun to see all of the relatives who love your son. Now he's met all of his great grandparents, aunts and uncles and many of his second cousins. He has a loving family to grow up in. :)
