NOLA

We took our first official family vacation (not counting trips "home" to the midwest) and it was quite a success.

John planned a trip to New Orleans without my knowing. We stayed right outside the French Quarters, meet my cousins Kim and Jaxon and had a wonderful weekend full of food, walking, food, shopping, food, perfect weather, swimming, and more walking. I could have easily spent the rest of the week exploring the city.

Mankato was a trooper. He took many naps in his stroller. Smiled at strangers. Ate bananas. And took his first swim in a pool. He did great. And we would both proudly say we are excited for our next family vacation with the little man(Kato). 
Where ever that may be.

In other news ... our little guy is growing WAY too fast. He has started to explore food!! So far he has ate/tried/chewed on: sweet potato, bananas (current fav), honeydew, brocolli, and ground oatmeal. He will be trying avocado this week at some point. Milk is still his favorite thing and it is not near as messy as the others. 
I can't get enough of him. Even on the fussy days, he's still the best.
