Tour of East Texas

Caden had been wanting to meet his good friend Norah, so we headed to Mt. Pleasant this past Thursday to grand his wish.We introduced them, and as you can see...they were very excited to finally put a face with the name......We left them alone for one second, and when we walked back in the room, THIS is what we found!It must have been love at first sightWait....Norah's not so sure. It could have something to do with the fact that Caden is hogging most of the bassinet.She grudgingly allowed him to stay, but she kept a close eye on him the rest of the time.We ended our night with a little stroll around the neighborhood. It was so much fun finally getting to meet Norah and visit with Luke and Katie. We can't wait to visit again!From Mt. Pleasant, we headed to Paris for the 4th of July with the Spencers! We headed to the Lake on the afternoon of the 4th, and when we got there, Roselyn was sporting her animal print bikini and tramp stamp. Caden wanted to be cool like his cousin Roselyn, so he got a sweet tat of a wolf on his bicep. He decided to show it off by making his t-shirt into a muscle shirt. Very cool.Sweet cousins!Caden spent most of the day either indoors or in the tent that Grandmother got for him. It was perfect! Sweet Landry decided that the lake was NOT where she wanted to spent the 4th of July, so Clay took her for a little bit and let Mo swim with Avery. He tried everything to calm her down and eventually decided to try and nurse her himself. To his surprise, he began lactating, and Landry was satisfied. Clay said it was one of the most rewarding experiences of his life, and he hopes to begin nursing Landry full time now.
Avery has GREAT lake hair!

We ended our 4th of July with a sweet firework display and then off to bed. All in all, a great weekend!!

Kristen,
Hey! this is Lauren (Hasty) King. I'm not sure how I found your blog--somehow I jumped from one person's to another's and landed on it. I can't believe you have a baby--mainly because I keep picturing you throwing douhnuts at people's windshields. Congratulations! Your little one is absolutely precious. Andrew and I have been living in Pasadena, CA for the last 3 years, but in August we are moving to Chalotte, NC. Glad to see all is well with you.
