Not a Total Loss

This weekend has been somewhat of a disaster, as far as get-togethers go. Last night, we had a girls' night with my Wheaton roomies and their husbands. We had spent the whole day up in Arlington Heights, and I think Noelle had just had enough of being out of her routine. She and I made an early exit. Tonight, we were supposed to head to the wedding of one of the guys Mike had as a Son Lifer. We got Riley taken care of, but we couldn't find anyone to watch Noelle. I didn't think it was the wisest move to take her to the wedding, so we thought that maybe we could pull off the reception. Then, as I thought more about it, I realized that that wasn't really all that bright either. A tired fourth-month-old, even all dolled up, at a wedding reception with people we don't really know? Probably not a good move. We reluctantly decided to make a go at it, and Mike, Noelle and I drove to Lisle, to the hotel parking lot... where we turned around and headed for home. Seeing as how Noelle was crying for most of the drive, it seemed like pure foolishness to go in. So Mike dropped us off at home, and Noelle is currently happily tucked into bed.

Don't worry, though. As I mentioned, Noelle got all dolled up for the event, in the same outfit-- by the way-- that Riley wore to her first wedding. This is what you've been waiting for, folks. These shots are almost too cute to handle!

The spit-up was kind of flowing, so I got the first few shots with bib.

Hehehe... I love that little face!

Singing!!

If you had cheeks like this, your head would get heavy, too.

That's my cutie. :)
