Family comes to town



This past week my parents and little brother Dallin came to visit;  so Jack, Derek and I all packed up and went and stayed with them in Newport Beach to make a little vacation out of it.  We had so much fun going on walks, playing by the pool, shopping, eating, and just hanging out.  Jack had a bit of a tough time not being in his bed and on his normal routine, but we still had fun with him.  He also had a lot of firsts: his first boat ride, his first swim time, and our first time out without him.  Here are some of those highlights and more:

 Jack's not too sure about the life jacket
First time in the Bumbo seat and loving it!
 


Jack's first pool experience:  He was a bit unsure about it at first, but then as Derek walked him around in the water he was loving it - just kicking his legs and splashing with his arms!


 

All snuggled up after his swim.

I was just thinking about you guys! I miss you so much! Mary moves on Wednesday- sad. I have been dying ot lay out by the pool and get a semi-tan but you know it is nearly impossible with a 10 month old. So... what tanning salon did you go to that bronzed you so beautifully?! ;) XOXO Miss you all...

You got some cute pictures! Fun to have a night out without him...don't you love parents! He is so smily I love it. I love the one of him in his bumbo. And his swim clothes are so big on him, poor little guy is so small the shorts are bigger than his whole body!

Hi Brittany! I hope you don't mind my checking out your blog. I saw that you had made a comment on Erica's new blog so I clicked on it. Jack is so cute! It was fun catching up on what you've been doing the last little bit. I get updates from Erica every once and awhile but not as in depth. So, I hope you don't mind if I take a peek into your life every now and again. Maybe it's weird, but it feels like you were my friend too :)!
