KC Trip

On February 15, we headed back to KC for Patricks first birthday party and to visit family and friends for a long weekend.  Jason was supposed to fly back with me and Grayson, but last minute had to stay in TX a few extra days for work.  That meant I was flying solo with a 6 week old!  Luckily, he was an awesome flyer :)  We had an early morning flight, so we got to the airport early.  I was armed with plenty of bottles made up and pacifiers!  He was fussy til I got him to the gate to feed him....and he proceeded to spit up the largest amount EVER.  Awesome.  I'm sure everyone around me was thrilled I was on their flight.  Anyway, we got on the plane and he checked out his surroundings for awhile, then fell asleep!  Perfect baby :)

We had an awesome time in KC!  It was so fun for everyone to meet Grayson.  We had some issues sleeping the first couple of nights (must have been missing his daddy).  He has been sleeping in a little bassinet/sling deal that we borrowed from my cousin at home...and when we got to KC, the pack and play was NOT going to cut it.  He freaked out til about 3am when I finally let him sleep on my chest.  Ugh.  I went out the next day and bought the same one we have at home haha.  We're trying to transition him into a crib, but it's not working too well right now.  He wakes up within about 10 minutes realizing he's in a huge space and starts crying.  So we are practicing sleeping in his crib during naptimes during the day.  Any moms out there with suggestions, I'd be happy to hear them!  

Here are some pics from KC:

We also had a visit this past weekend from cousin Ryane!  It was so cute to have the babies together, and get pictures of them when they are little.  They are only 4 days apart!  Grayson is a lot bigger than Ryane though haha.

Grayson has his 2 month checkup on Monday, so I will update his stats and stuff then!
