A trip to Wichita

Gwen hadn't gotten to go to Wichita to see Jenn's side of the family in quite awhile, and we used Megan's fifth birthday party as an excuse.

We had to pack her in SOMETHING.
All right, enough already!  Let's get moving!
Megan, Gwen, Maddy, and Morgan

Small anecdote

I know most babies give you lots of anecdotes, and for most of them you probably have to be there to really get the full feeling. And I know no one is likely as interested as Luke or I. But, I still want to remember this, so I'm making a little post.

Yesterday night, when I got home late, Gwen had already been put down for the night. Usually she stays asleep. Occasionally she'll wake up a little fussy or to eat. Luke and I were eating dinner together and the monitor goes off. Since I haven't seen her all day, I volunteered to go see what was up.

I go up to her room and listen at the door. She's been coughing a little, so I didn't want to bother her if she was just coughing some and still basically asleep.

Instead of coughing, I hear laughing. A lot of it. So I go in, and there she is, just haaaaaappy and laughing for no obvious reason. I start to laugh back. Then she REALLY gets going. Taking her downstairs to see Luke, she continues to laugh and starts to laugh enough to start making little baby laughing-so-hard-I'm-snorting noises.

It was probably the cutest thing ever.

Just some pics

Random pictures 'n stuff.

Gwen visiting Cassandra for the first time:



Jenni found out that if you hold the button on the camera down, it takes a string of photos.  Generally pretty bad photos due to the lack of a flash, but nevertheless...  Time lapse!  And yes, burp rags are her favorite toy right now.  It probably would be potato chip bags if we'd let her have them though...


















Gwen has been a bit grumpy today.




OK, so she wasn't ALL grumpy today...

 



And Jenni thinks we look like bad parents for this one, but this child LOVES her potato chip bags...


And she's quite sleepy too.

One more vid I'd forgotten about the first time around...
