The Grandparents to the rescue. Our great friends Casey and Levon got married this past weekend - CONGRATS!! The wedding was absolutely beautiful and we were so honored to be a part of the big day. The weekend was jammed packed with fun wedding activities so we called upon the best possible babysitters - The Grandparents! Grandma & Grand-daddy arrived Friday afternoon around 2pm. We handed Lyla off to them around 6pm and it was smooth sailing from there. With Lyla's schedule taped to the refrigerator and a couple helpful hints - we headed out for our first real night out on the town since Lyla's arrival with not one worry in the world - Lyla Byrd was in GREAT loving hands.
We returned from the rehearsal dinner to find Lyla fast asleep and the grandparents cleaning up the kitchen :)
Saturday we left around 1pm - grandma & grand-daddy couldn't get us out of the door fast enough. During Lyla's long afternoon nap, grandma managed to make a chocolate pie, 2 chicken pot pies and lasagna...WOW dinner for the entire following week. Honestly, can it get any better!!!
Saturday night Lyla went out to dinner with grandma & grand-daddy...one of Lyla's favorite things to do...be in public - in a highchair - with a mum-mum cracker - looking at the world around her - and the best added bonus of all: grandma & grand-daddy!!!!
And here we are dressed to impress....
What a fabulous weekend...and I didn't even cry when the grandparents left...but only because we are headed back to Ohio this weekend for another adventure:):):)
THANK YOU GRANDMA & GRAND-DADDY
You are the BEST!!!!!!!

Okay yes I know we are the best babysitters but also nice to hear you trusted us and didn't have to worry about anything while you were getting out FINALLY. love grandma and thank you Lyla for such a lovely note of thanks.
Awww - these are great! You look gorgeous BTW. Three cheers for Grandparents (and babies who actually like a schedule).
Okay, so I know that you guys have to be busy getting back into the routine after being out of town, but I'm really looking forward to those race/pool/etc photos since my camera was mostly out of commission for the weekend. ;)
She is the cutest baby I have ever seen. Mike, you are in a world of trouble.
