My Trip Home - October 2013

A few weeks ago I traveled home for a visit and to help throw a baby shower for my good friend Kristen who is due in just a few weeks now!  I had the best trip.  Olive did so great on the plane both ways, she was a born traveler!  We got to see lots of friends and spent some time at the cabin, where Olive even got to enjoy her first snow!  

Here are a few pics from the baby shower.  Kristen is Due December 7th with her first.  It is a boy!  We are all so excited!

Feeling the bump!

College friends, all of us have babies now with one still in the oven.

Olive is not used to the cold so her Granbee Cooper was nice enough to stock her up on some very cute warm clothes.  She wore her cute fleece on a walk on the golf course with the dogs and grandpa.  She loved it!

Beautiful fall weather!

It was a little big but at least she can wear it again at Christmas!

Grandbee also bought Olive an excersaucer which she had so much fun playing in.  Lots of new toys!


My parents just watched her play in it for a long time.

We also got to spend some time with my brother Colin, it was so fun to hang out with him!  We gave him some baby experience by having him feed her and push the stroller.  He said no to the diaper change however.

On a walk.

After Colin left we headed up to the cabin for some relaxation.  It snowed several inches and it was so nice to be in the cold weather.  Olive loved the snow.  Every time a snowflake would hit her face she would giggle.  It was so cute!

With Grandpa at the cabin.

First jeans!

Guinness was a little scared of her.

Big dog protection.

Loving the snow!

Loved all her new toys.

Snuggled after a bath at the cabin.

Why is it so cold??

Learning early to play the piano.

Juicy jumpsuit?  Check!


New hat?  Check!

Olive got to see tons of family and friends, including her grandpa Lissy and her uncle James!

Marianne- the baby whisperer!

Joel was so excited to have us home though, he watched our plane land and took some pics of us getting off the plane (you can do that on a small island!)



It was such a great trip, we can't wait to get home again for Christmas!
