Fun Visit

We had a fun weekend here at our house. Julie and Alison came to visit. Alison has seen him lots, but this was Julie's first time to meet Kanyon. As you can see in this picture, he was thrilled!

Julie recently got engaged, so we did a little wedding dress shopping! Me and Alison were here personal shoppers/helpers/opinion givers/hanger uppers.
Here we are all ready for church Sunday morning
I love this little outfit...he was zonked out, but I wanted a picture of him in it...he's quickly outgrowing it.
We did lots of this.....staring at Kanyon doing nothing. Sunday afternoon he wore his outfit Julie gave him when he was born. Pretty cute. He wore Alison's Friday night, but I'm dumb and didn't get a picture. Thanks for coming girls...it was SOOOO fun!A baby in a robe is just funny...doesn't he look huge in this picture.
Here he is all ready to go to Ladie's Bible Class Tuesday morning.....
as usual, this is how he ended up. Working hard sitting in his Bumbo holdig his head up. He's getting better....slowly but surely.
I have to tell you about this picture. This big huge so cute blanket is from Kory's awesome cousin Leslee. When Kory was a little boy his grandmother made him a "froggie blanket". Kory loved it. When Kory was in high school, his family lost everything in a house fire, so of course this blanket was lost. Kory always said it was one of the things he was the most sad about loosing because he loved it so much when he was little and because it was from his grandmother a very very special lady. Anyways, a few weeks ago, we get this package in the mail with a froggie blanket for Kanyon. Leslee AMAZINGLY made a replica of Kory's blanket for Kanyon! So very very thoughtful and special. I've told you before, but I'll say it again.....we have the best families in the world! Not to mention crafty and creative! And if you click on the picture you'll see that Kanyon's PJ's have frogs all over them...thanks Rach! Have a great week!

That frog quilt is just about as AMAZING as the boy it was made for! Leslee is so talented and of course EXTREMELY thoughtful.

Looks like you had a great time with Julie and Alison.

Thanks again for blogging!!

Jaymie,
Have I got the girlfriend for Kanyon!!! She's a bit younger than Kanyon-but that's okay. She's my new granddaughter-Bailey Grace. Kanyon can visit her at www.baileysphotos.blogspot.com
Love your posts. And I love Kanyon.

The frog blanket is awesome. The stuff they make for babies these days are so much cooler than just a few years ago when Jacob was a baby. He looks really good!

You're right - a baby in a robe is just funny. I laughed out loud - what a cutie!!!

Wedding dress shopping. WHAT FUN!!! I know Julie looked great. And yes, Kanyon looks awestruck meeting Jules for the first time. How funny!!

The frog quilt is precious. I guess Kory feels like he's captured a bit of his own childhood.

Oh, he's so beautiful. I love these sweet and wild little boy days we're in, but I miss all the softness and snuggliness of the baby days, too. I can't help but smile at all Kanyon's rolls. He sure is sweet and growing! Hope y'all had a really happy Thanksgiving!
