What a weekend!!

This was mommy's last weekend of maternity leave and we sure did not let it go to waste! We drove to Wichita Friday night after Jeff got off work and stayed at a hotel with Grandma Bo. Saturday Lotus' Aunt Brenna, Uncle Bill, Aunt Jamie, and Cousins Ryan, Alex and Brody came to hang out at the hotel and meet Lotus for the first time. It was great to see everyone and here are some pictures from our gathering:

Here is Lotus with her cousin Brody who is exactly 3 weeks younger than her.

This is Aunt Jamie and Lotus having some "girl talk".

Uncle Bill and Aunt Brenna with the babes. I like how it looks like Brody and Lotus are looking at each other!

Grandma Bo and Lotus!

We got back from Wichita Saturday night. Sunday morning we decided to enjoy the nice weather by going to Powell Gardens in Kingsville. My friend had told me that they had Lotus flowers there, so we decided to go on a Lotus flower search! Here is a pic of mommy and Lotus with our sweet sunglasses:

Here's a family picture on the "island garden" where all of the Lotus flowers were in bloom. They were soooo pretty! I can't wait to take Lotus back here when she is old enough to appreciate them.

Here's daddy trying to get her as close as possible to the flowers. Good job daddy!
