Great-Grandma's are the Best!

As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, I took the boys to my hometown for L's first big trip. I forgot my camera (of all things) but luckily, Grammy had hers handy. Here are some pictures from his big trip - the biggest treat was for L to meet his Great-Grandma M. Here are some sweet pictures from some of their first moments together.

Cousin C was taking her turn holding the baby. I was their for "support" - and all of the sudden L started turning his head to my voice. Pretty soon he was looking at me upside down. Mom thought it was cute and snapped this shot.

J had a BLAST with his cousins while we were there. Cousin S (on the left end) and Cousin C (on the right end) always shower him with attention...and they play so well together. The girl to J's right is Cousin M - a distant cousin who fits right in. J really took to her and kept asking when she was coming back. :)


The only way to ride! Thank goodness for these AMAZING swaddle blankets. They have a slit sown in right where L's little hiney bottom is. This is so you can thread the car seat buckle through the blanket, snap baby into the car seat, then swaddle baby up! It was a LIFESAVER on the trip to and from my hometown. The only problem it, we have to keep the car really cold so L won't overheat. I will be SO HAPPY when we see our last 100 degree high around here!!
