From Nashville... (part 2)

We saw my nephew, which was lovely, for only a few hours on one day, which was sad.  But I loved the time with him.  He's the spitting image of my brother.

It was important for me to recreate a picture from my childhood.  My mom held me, and later my brother and I, at this train.  I treasure that picture and memory, and thankfully, even though the pic was a little different (due to train damage, you can no longer go on it and can only stand in front of it), I am so happy we were able to do this.

For my birthday, my mom gave me a day of beauty!  First, we went to her friend's salon and I got my hair cut (a small trim, but she layered it and I love it!  It hangs so well when I wear it down now!)  Then, we had lunch at her favorite spot.  Finally, we went to a salon that only does nails and had mani/pedi's!  I got to pick the color, so our toes are "Shrek green".  (We opted for buffing our nails since she gardens and I have kids who eat my fingers!)

And, finally, Maya got TWO teeth on the trip, one on one day and the second the next.  At their nine month check up, their ped felt her two top and said it's only a matter of a few weeks at the longest, and she also felt Bobby's two bottoms on the verge.
