CA

what to do when the hubby is busy studying... go to CA!! Rhys and I hopped on a plane and headed down to my hometown. Thank goodness my grandma was with us on the plane, because I was soo nervous he would be screaming the whole time. But he did great! He was awake and playing for the first hour and a half, and slept right through the landing. But it was a great trip filled with family, friends, food, a wedding, a castle, food, shopping, swimming, 3 major blowouts, sunshine and even more yummy food.
Remember this post and this post, well we have now turned into this:
just seeing what rhys' little sis might look like...cute?

We headed north to Santa Barbara, Solvang and San lois Obispo for a wedding, Hearst Castle and some Danish food. It was lots of fun!

Extreme blolwout
Then back home for some shopping and good food. Rhys was being so spoiled with hugs and kisses from his cousin Ashlyn. She just wanted to hold him and hug him all the time.
did I mention I have the cutest neice?? Nows a good time to! her sour face.

I thought your friend (with a baby) was your sister! You guys look so alike. Looks like you are having a lot of fun. You have totally got your old body back! You look great! Rhys is getting big! As for the post below- great blow out pic. Isn't it amazing the amount of poo that can come from someone so small? And all the many directions it can go. It's a wonderful thing.

Whoops, I guess the blow out pic was THIS post.

Cute pictures! I like the one where Ashlyn's pointing and it kinda looks like Rhys is smiling! But that could be a crying face... oh well, I'll pretend it's a happy face! So are you getting ready for this hike... we went hiking yesterday... and we're NOT ready. Multiple injuries is NOT a good sign! (including Ashlyn!) Good luck!

Oh my gosh, Thomas had a blowout EVERY SINGLE TIME HE POOPED. Seriously. He always waited like 7-10 days, and then had a blowout. After about a week I would have him wear clothes that I didn't care about, because I knew what was coming. We got good at giving him a bath with wipes, in public places. Haha. Aww the memories!

I love the cute pics of the Rhyser and Ashlyn. Their parents are too bad either. See you soon. Love, Mom

Ha ha ha ha ha ha! I def do not miss those poopy blowouts! Although with the infant potty training I think we made it through with only 2 or 3 of those.

And every once in a while Rio will come home from the babysitter's in one of her daughter's outfits and he looks pretty dang cute as a girl - but it really weirds me out :)
