Dads do weird things sometimes....the other night I heard "Mom" (in Kory's "Kanyon" voice) and I turned around to see this. Not sure what possessed Kory to do this, but it was a good laugh.
For some reason, Kanyon thinks Kory is hilarious. Kory will lay there and make noises and Kanyon giggles and laughs the whole time. In this picture, they are trading noises...Kory would make a noise, then Kanyon. It went on for a long time...sweet sounds. 
I can't believe I'm putting this picture of myself on the blog...I looked TERRIBLE. But oh well. I got so tickled because Kanyon was trying to slow dance with me. His little arms were over my shoulder. Really he was trying to play with my hair, but it sure looks like a good ol' Jr. High slow dance.
Friday before I left, Kanyon re-found his thumb. A long time ago he found it but couldn't figure out what to do with his other fingers so he gave up. This time he got it all figured out. He went to town on it Friday night, but since then hasn't done it a whole lot more. I'm Ok with a thumb sucker. I know a good orthodontist. 
Speaking of Friday night, that is when I left my sweet baby boy for a WHOLE WEEKEND! That was the longest I've ever been away from him since the day they were born. It was our anual MLK weekend with my girlfriends from college. There was no way I could take Kanyon so it was either don't go or take advantage of my great parents, sweet husband, and gallons upon gallons of frozen breast milk (you think I'm exaggerating..I'm not). Kory had to work part of the weekend, so my parents came to help. I was not the least bit worried. I was a little sad, but at the same time, I'm kind of used to other people taking care of my kid..that was the first 100 days of his life. Anyways, I am SOOOOO thankful to my parents (especially my mom) and to Kory for letting me go and taking such good care of Kanyon.Here I am about to leave. Luckily Mindi was with me or I think I might've gotten a little teary....she was leaving her baby too. That was a recipe for lots of tears, but we both held it together.
Here are the girls. We were missing several, but this crew had a blast. The only boys allowed were Truitt and Sam. SOOO FUN!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE my friends and it is so fun to love their kids too! I could go on and on about the weekend. Bed times: Friday night 4:30 am Saturday night: 1:45 So great!! 
People always ask "What do y'all do?" Mostly nothing mixed with a chick flick, maybe a meal out, lots of laughing, but always ALWAYS ALWAYS a trip to Target. Here are a few of us with our purchases. 
It was a great weekend with the greatest girls in the universe. And I came home to the greatest baby boy and the greatest husband in the universe.

GOOD FOR YOU WITH A GIRLS' WEEKEND!!! So hard to leave them, but so great to get away too sometimes! All those sweet girls... I enjoyed seeing their faces in the pics! Glad you had fun, and that the fam got some good QT with Kanyon. LOVE the pics of that sweet little cutie. LOVE 'em. :)
That Grand Kanyon has the sweetest smile...but what a wonderful reason to smile! He's got the bestest Mommy & Daddy around!
Glad you got to get away and have some "me" time.
Take care and stay warm!
Wow, a girl's weekend...I could only dream. I'm so happy you had such a wonderful time. I bet it did you good :)
It was great seeing you at church on Wednesday night. Take care. Karen
so cute pic of kory and kanyon! glad you had a good weekend :)
I LOVED having you here! What a rich blessing!
Precious baby!
I was so happy to see you on Sunday! What a surprise, and I am glad you had a great girls weekend at the Casa de Ross!
What fun! I have to comment fast--Laura is serving herself blackberry cobbler, and Mary Nan doesn't understand why there are pictures of you with your friends on "Kanyon's blog". I think she expects you to keep it wholly devoted to him. Anyway, I love the pictures of y'all dancing (isn't that the sweetest feeling?) and the one of him and Kory making noises at each other. Love y'all!
Awwww! Those pictures made me miss all those girls so much! I'm so glad that you decided to go. I'm sure it was hard leaving Kanyon...thank God for wonderful grandmas!
Good for you that you allow your husband to be the daddy and leave him with Kanyon! I am so glad that you were able to go out and enjoy your me time! I am sure that Kory enjoyed his daddy time just as much!
I loved seeing you at girls weekend. We had fun together. I remember you walking around the house holding my baby boy singing something about "a do do do and a poo poo poo..." you are so fun! - Kayci
I wish I could see all you girls. I live too far away and haven't talked to so many of the ACU girls in so long. I miss my girlfriends. New friends aren't the same as your old friends. Maybe someday we'll all see eachother again.
