We recently traveled to Kentucky to see Grandpa and Grandma Bryant- and boy were they happy to see their grandson! They hadn’t seen Alex since he was 1 week old so I am sure they cherished every moment with him. It was awesome because he recognized them. We Skype often enough that he sees their faces and hears their voices… the wonders of technology.
Alex had a great trip – other than being stuck in a car seat for 4 days! He did really well considering and was happy to just touch things at rest areas and flirt with EVERYONE that came in his line of sight. Alex does not discriminate that way. He is such a cutie pants.
On Easter Sunday, Alex got pretty sick. He was projectile vomiting all over the dining room and running a fever. Brent laid down with him for a nap but he wasn’t quite himself for the next day. Then on Monday Brent got the same bug, and then Tuesday I got the bug! It was a family affair of puking and feeling icky for 24 hours. Luckily, my parents didn’t catch whatever we had. Other than that, the trip went well. We got to spend plenty of time sitting on the porch enjoying the weather and Alex even got to see ducks and chickens for the first time. We also took a walk to the catfish pond on my parent’s property which he seemed to enjoy.
The best part for Alex, of course, was spending time with his family. He loves getting snugs! He seemed to develop a stronger attachment to mommy throughout the week and is officially a “Momma’s Boy.” Overall it was a great trip. Kentucky is just beautiful and it was awesome to spend a holiday with my parents, even though the star player was sick and missed the Easter egg hunt. My friend Tabitha and her family were there as well, so they at least got to enjoy the hunt. Alex and her youngest boy, Taylor, really hit it off! Taylor literally hit Alex, and then Alex bit him! It was awesome!
