Baby Food

The other day I was feeding Kendall some baby food and Carter expressed some interest in trying a bite. She was eating plums and apples so I gave him a bite and he loved it! The next day I was feeding her peaches and he wanted another bite. Again, he loved it! On the third day I was feeding her peas and carrots and, again, he wanted to try a bite. So, I gave him a bite. :-) He immediately starts pointing at his mouth and panicking, obviously wanting to spit the bite out. I handed him a paper towel and told him he could spit it out, at which point he starts gagging and coughing. I'm trying not to laugh as I help him wipe off his tongue and mouth. Once we finished cleaning up, he gave me a very serious look and said, "Mommy, no like KK's (this is what he calls Kendall) food." It was pretty funny!

Fun Trip

So, we spent the last weekend in Las Cruces helping Kyle celebrate his graduation from NMSU. We had an absolute ball! My entire family was there, including Curtis who surprised Kyle by flying in from the Air Force Academy! It was so much fun to see everyone again!
We finally got to meet our newest niece/cousin, Ina! She is absolutely beautiful and such a sweet baby. Kyle and Chrissy are wonderful parents, although it is a little surreal to see your little brother as a daddy!
The graduation ceremony went well and was followed by a wonderful enchilada lunch reception at Kyle and Chrissy's church. Kyle graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering and will begin a job in Albuquerque in a few weeks.
One downside to the trip is that we were having such a great time that we stayed up late every night we were there. And, for some reason, kids never get the memo that mom and dad stayed up late therefore they should sleep later in the morning! :-) We came home exhausted but it was well worth it!
Thanks for hosting such a fun family get together Kyle, Chrissy, and Marit! We love you guys!

Happy Birthday Justin!

Today is Justin's 28th birthday! I am so thankful to be celebrating another birthday with my wonderful husband! Unfortunately, he still had to go to work today (dern responsibilities!) but we plan to celebrate this weekend with friends and family. Happy Birthday Babe! I love you!
