Week In Texas!

When Jayden was blessed last month, not all of my family was able to make it to Utah, so they invited Jayden and I to come to Texas for their spring break! It was quite the big adventure for us. It was Jayden's first plane ride and my first time flying with a baby, so I was a little nervous (maybe more than a little). But he did fantastic! The flight down to Texas was five hours long because we stopped in a couple places and didn't get off the plane. The flight back was only supposed to take two and half hours, but there were a bunch of big storms in Dallas that night so we sat on the plane waiting to take off for almost three hours. I was so proud of my little guy for handling it so well. And thankfully we sat by really nice people who held him and played with him to give me a break :)
Besides all of that, we had such a blast with the family! Jayden got to meet a lot of new people, and he loved the attention. We went to Sea World for a couple of days, and he had never spent so much time outside and in the sun. I'm not sure if he was a huge fan of the heat and humidity, but he slept really well in the stroller, and we got some super cute pictures of him with his cousins! And while he slept, I got to enjoy feeding the dolphins, a couple roller coasters, and some awesome shows.

Earlier in the week, we went to the park and a duck pond.

Elly and Jake were great babysitters


and my other nephews are so dang cute!



and I just love this one of Jayden!


We had so much fun with the family and miss them already! We were excited and ready to come home to daddy, though :)
