Our Trip to Evansville
We went to Evansville on June 12th to visit our family! It was our niece Hadley’s first Birthday and we celebrated on Saturday at Blake and Joey’s house. It was a lot of fun and Hadley LOVED her cake! Grant had to come home on Sunday, the 14th, but Caitlin and I stayed until Thursday to spend more time with Caitlin’s Mimi, Pops, Gigi, Aunties, Uncle and Cousins!! We had a lot of fun with everyone. Caitlin loves her cousins and loved having other kids around. She would just stare at them and want to play like a big girl. Laney kept calling Caitlin her baby sister, which was so cute! When we left, Laney wondered where her baby sister, Caitlin, went (so adorable)!! She also loved Mimi’s dog, Bella and Auntie Bee’s dog, Moose. She would just watch them run around and liked to pet Bella’s curly hair!
Caitlin had a few firsts while we were in Evansville. She went “swimming” in a pool for the first time, she went in a swing for the first time and down a slide (with help from daddy). She also did a great job sitting in a booster seat to eat. We didn’t think she would be able to do it but she is almost sitting, so it was pretty easy for her.
She also learned a new “trick” to let us know she wants more food. She sticks her tongue out just about as far as she can (see the pics above). It was too funny! She continues to enjoy oatmeal, sweet potatoes, and applesauce. We will keep adding new food!
She was a little stubborn while we were in Evansville. She wouldn’t take a bottle for two days, she only wanted mommy. It was a bit frustrating but now we have learned to just hold the bottle in front of her and she grabs it when she is ready. I have a feeling we have an independent little girl on our hands!
We had some professional pictures taken of the whole family and of the cousins while we were there. We will have to add some when we get them in the mail. They turned out great!
