Our Utah Trip

We had the best 5 days in Utah. My sister Ginger and her husband Sam also came into town from South Dakota, so it was a party! She also announced that she is pregnant, 16 weeks now, which is just the best news!!! Amelia was obsessed with her cousins and did not skip a beat, from the second she walked in the house she was chasing Barrett and Judson around and wouldn't even stop to say hi to us. It was so fun to see her with all of her cousins. Maya was held at all times and everyone was just in love with her. We went out to eat and had a girls night and sat around talking a lot and played a few games. Juan and I got away for a few dates even. And now please take in all the pictures:

 Cousin Barrett. He is just the cutest, he loved Maya and kept asking me why she didn't play with toys.

Aren't these the best pictures? It doesn't snow in Texas. 

Barrett finally forced her into playing with this toy, ha ha!

 The one time that Maya was not being held.

And Amelia did take time out for sister time. Even if she looks less than thrilled, she really adores Maya.

 This sums up our plane rides. Amelia either slept or watched a movie. Maya was a dream baby as always.


It really was the best trip. And now it's good to be home. My Maya baby has been sleeping 6-7 hour stretches for me consistently. She is just so sweet. And I got some smiling pictures today that I'll have to share next post! Amelia slept like a dream while we were sharing a room in Utah and she adjusted back to Austin time without a hitch. She's so chill and easy. We are blessed with good babies over here.

I love that picture of snoozing Amelia. I live for the day when Ella will do that (I do not have high hopes).

I love the last picture of Maya--haha! So darling! Glad you had a good trip! We want to fly with the boys before they turn two--here's hoping they do as well as your girls!

I'm so glad that you had such a fun trip and that they were so good on the plane (I always worry about that!). Amelia takes the funniest pictures. I was cracking up looking at them. You got to see a ton of family-how fun!

Love all the pics! I'm glad you had fun with family and that the change in schedule didn't throw Maya off! She is changing so much, I just want it to stop until I see her!! She's such a cutie!

It was so much fun to hang out for the weekend. I wish we lived closer, that would be so great. I am glad that we get to see you guys again in a couple months.

So jealous that you got to see so many fun people!! :) I love the picture of Juan and Amelia on the plane! I'm glad both girls were good for you on the trip. We just took a trip to Hawaii and I was paranoid about the 6 hour flight (Britta did pretty well, though).
