Utah Again

For the fourth time in six months, Tate Tot and I made the journey to Utah for my sister's birthday (and while her husband was in Asia). The trip started out a little slow with Summer and Maren being sick, but we had a great time celebrating Summer's birthday and playing with the little people.

I forgot Tate's pajamas, so he borrowed a pair of Maren's. Here is a photo of my little girl. Awww....


The mandatory cousins-bathtime picture that will mortify them in the not-so distant future. I love their enormous bellies!
We took them to the Sandy Aquarium - this is T watching the penguins with rapt interest. They liked the aquarium more than I thought they would.


And introducing my new nephew, Christian. Is he adorable or what? Tate really loved Christian and always wanted to talk to and pat (hit) him. In the video below you'll notice T's love for Christian and how demonstrably sad he was at not being allowed to lick (I think) him.
