4 Weeks Old!

 He hijacked my attempt to pack :)


This week was full of milestones!  We flew to California on the 23rd.  I thought Southwest's policy on flying with a newborn was 14 days old, but apparently it was 21 days.  They stopped us at check-in to verify that Quinn was OLD enough to fly.  It was 7am, our midwife wasn't available, and having had a home birth, I didn't have a hospital record.  After holding up the line for 15 minutes, they let us go but encouraged me to find documentation for the ride home.  Everyone did great on the flight to California, especially since Gigi made each boy a candy bag with toys, 

Friday and Saturday we ran errands to get ready for my Nana's 80th birthday party.  We had fun introducing Quinn to all our family members.  Saturday night was my Nana's party, where she got spoiled like a princess.  Sunday we met a former colleague for lunch.  Monday, we spent all day at the pool, where the boys suddenly decided they wanted to swim without floaties.....and they DID!  Tuesday, we played in the water at my aunt's house.  Wednesday we did a one-mile hike at the nature center, where Kannon got a behind the scenes tour of the snake classroom.  Friday we are going to SeaWorld and Saturday we fly home.  This trip has flown by!!!


This week's milestones:
  • Quinn has been smiling at everyone, but especially Papa! 
  • First airplane ride
  • Dipped feet in Pacific Ocean
  • First hike
  • Kannon and Clark learned to swim without floaties!




 Waiting at the airport
 Taking off... Clark's favorite part
 Meeting Nana and Papa for the first time

 Learning to swim....little did I know these floaties would come off!
 Kannon was so tired he slept in the cart at Wal-Mart






 We told them they could only get their feet wet.

 Clearly, they didn't listen.

 Meeting my former colleague, Neaz.

 Hiking at the Nature Center!
