Trip to Maryland

Katy and I went to Maryland last weekend, and I've finally gotten around to picking up the pictures (Monday) and now finally posting them. Sorry for the delay! I have this very active toddler who needs lots of attention. :)

We started out hanging out with Grandpa Friday afternoon.

Then Uncle Jarrod and Aunt Kristen came over.

Saturday morning we went to visit Katie and Mabel, who were miraculously visiting family in Maryland the same weekend! Katy is in the pack-and-play because she seemed curious about it, and nodded when I asked her if she wanted to get in.

Saturday afternoon we went to Wyatt's birthday party.

Here is Wyatt with the elephant I made him!

Saturday night we went to Uncle Brian and Aunt Shelly's. This Bumbo seat is to prop up little babies who can't sit on their own yet. However, it bears an uncanny resemblance to Katy's potty.

Katy's word for nursing is "boo-BOO" (emphasis on the second boo). She likes to make all her toys have boo-BOO, on me, on her, on each other. And she sticks out her tongue and makes this sucking sound to indicate what is going on. Here she is with Jessica, taking a break from looking at her adorable little cousin, to let these toys have some boo-BOO. Jessica smiles all the time!

Nicolas! He is lots of fun, and VERY full of energy. I love to spend time with him, especially now that he's old enough to hold a conversation with. He is really into the cars from the Disney movie Cars. The funniest thing is that he apparently can't say "hungry" just right, and it ends up sounding like "horny." So he says, "Daddy, let's go kitchen, I so horny!"

Katy got sick with a cold Saturday night, as she often does when we go out of town. We had a rough night, but Aunt Shelly and Uncle Brian took good care of us, and we returned home the next day. Katy is all better now - she was only sick for a few days this time.
