Last weekend our new little family took a trip to Trisha's hometown of Seguin. It was Carter's first trip to his grandparents. We had a great time although it flew by. Friday was a success since it was the little guys first real car trip. He was in the car for almost 5 hours and he hardly made a sound. Our new roadtrip set up is me driving the two dogs sleeping in the passenger seat and Trisha and Carter in the back. Thankfully the dogs are as good in the car as Carter is or we would have our hands full.

On Saturday, the little guy got to spend time with his grandparents and he also got to meet his Aunt Brenda. He will never lack for love and attention! The reason we went down was for Trisha's friend Alison's baby shower. She is having a girl in April. Carter got to meet some new friends, like 4 year old Hudson Leonard and Nic and DeeDee's son Nico, who is 7 weeks older than Carter. I'm sure these two will be spending a lot more time together in the future.

We headed back to Cedar Hill on Sunday morning and made a stop in good old Austin to see Courtney and Bill who are having a girl any day now. It was nice to spend a little time back in Austin, even if it was for only an hour. Their house is beautiful and we had a good time.

Wednesday our friend Tricia Jennings came by with her two little boys. The ladies had lunch and the boys got some male bonding time. There are some adorable pictures of the three of them together. I know Trish really enjoyed some adult time to break up her day.

This week has been very hectic and like every other week since we've had Carter, has been flying by. This weekend will be the first we've had alone since his birth as well. As much as we really enjoy being around family, it sure will be nice to get a little time as just the three of us. Jared will be here next week and then Ben the following week. Carter really loves having hands on him so he'll enjoy their company.
