Mari's First Trip

Last week Mari and I went to Missouri for a visit.  We left on Thursday morning and 

were supposed to come back on Monday, but decided to extend our stay until Wednesday.  We took a plane and Mari was so good.  She loved people watching in the airport just like her mom.  Greg was very busy at work so he was not able to come with us.  We did miss him very much, but were able to Skype almost every night.  Sarah and Liam came for the whole week as well, so it was fun to have the cousins get together and get to hang out with my sister.  We had a lot of visitors during our stay to meet the kids.  It was busy, but so great to see all the friends and family.

Here we are on the plane to Missouri.  She was such a good baby.

Hanging out at Grandma and Grandpa Quirk's.

We were home during Valentine's Day.  Here was her Valentine outfit for the day.

Aunt Sarah brought the Bumbo so we gave it a try and Mari loved sitting up all by herself.  

Grandma and Grandpa Nienhouse got her an adorable My 1st Valentine's Day sleeper and bib.  I do have to say she is toooooo cute.

Grandma and Mari loved getting to hang out.  We can't wait for the next visit in April.  

Aunt Sarah, Mari wants to know when you are going to move to Colorado? :)  

Liam and Mari loved laying on the play mat together.  It is fun to see them respond to eachother, by grabbing and trying to eat the others ones hands.

Plotting how to get their parents to live in the same state. 

Grandpa and Mari.  He was great at singing to her to calm her down.  Thanks Grandpa see you in April.

My cousin Omega with Mari it was great to see them again.

Sarah and I went shopping with the kiddos one day and I found these at Target so I thought what great pics for when they get older.
