It wasn't a complete Carson family reunion since Garrett and Krystal's family couldn't make it. but the majority of Tyler's family was able to get together for the 4th of July week!
Andrew did very well on the flights, and was excited to look at the planes and other machinery.
He is walking now, but during the trip was standing up a lot but couldn't walk without holding on to something.
Andrew loved playing in the Crazy Coup
His big cousins had fun pushing him around in it too. It was a win win situation.
We took Andrew swimming for the first time ever on the trip. He wasn't too sure about it despite loving taking baths.
He did alright when mommy or daddy was with him though.
Us in front of the lake at the neighborhood center where Lissa and Jason live.
Andrew managed to find some manly toys while playing with his girl cousins.
It's never too early to take piano lessons from Grandma!
A caravan headed to the park.
Savannah and Kiera played with Andrew pretty well. They kept him in line by saying "no no honey" when he was doing something he wasn't supposed to.
Andrew's new thing is pushing his lips out in a grimace and breathing heavily. It cracks us up every time he does it.
Granddad made a house out of large pieces of cardboard. The kids had so much fun playing in it!
Andrew was intrigued by baby Grace. We kept telling him he will have a little brother or sister soon! I had to put this good picture of Grace on the left to counteract the picture on the right where Andrew looks sweet but Grace looks silly.
We tried going swimming a different day, but a thunderstorm was rolling in and the pool was closed.
The kids had a pretty fun time in the bathtub though!
We had some coupons to CiCi's pizza and we ate there as a family.
The food was REALLY good. We all ate a lot (except for Andrew who threw his glass baby food jar on the floor, shattering it)
It even had some fun things to play on.
Us all dressed up for baby Grace's blessing.
Grandma and Granddad Carson with all but three of their grandchildren.
It sure was a fun week, we wish we could have stayed longer but it was good to see so much of the Carson family again!
So many fun pictures! I don't think I have all of those... It really was great to see you. Thanks for coming! :)
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if there was some way to copy this post and put it on our blog, since it has lots of the same pictures I'd use. Maybe when I blog about our trip I'll add a link to this post.
ReplyDeleteWe're so, so glad you came even though it was a bit crazy, crowded and hectic. It meant a lot to have you all there for Grace's blessing. I hope it was fun for Andrew to spend time with his cousins and to get to know them.
