Cousins (and other awesome people)

We have finally returned from our wonderful family vacation. We were able to see lots of friends and family, but it is good to be home again!

Here are some highlights from our trip.

We went to fireworks with the Odon Church of the Nazarene, where Amos reconnected with the little girl who is one day older than him. She wanted to touch him, but he wasn't too sure about that!

Sondra took some time to do a photoshoot with her new background. She did such an amazing job, and we are so lucky to have such great pictures of little Amos. Here is one of my favorites:

We made the trip up to see Mike's parents and sister and her family. Amos LOVED his little cousins, and they loved him. They kept walking around saying, "Baby Amos! Baby Amos!" It was like a dream come true for little Amos. He loves other babies and he loves attention, so babies that pay attention to him are awesome. Here are a couple pictures of Amos and the little cousins.

We also got to stop and see little Charity on the way home. She is ten months old. I think Amos went into withdrawal when we got back on Monday and there weren't any babies to play with!

It was really good to see our families, and the time away from Kansas City made a nice break from our routine, but I'm happy to be home again!

And now, let the blogging, recommence!

(And also the laundry and cooking and weeding the garden and other home-type activities.)
