Second Trip to Kansas

We took our second trip with Asante February 9th through the 12th.  Asante is such a pro at flying, he was amazing!  It was a great trip! Asante did so much better this time, and no one got sick :-) We got in Saturday morning and Gran picked us up from the airport.  We went to get our rental car before going to breakfast with some of my family.  After breakfast we went to Mimi and Papa's house so Asante could take a nap before Hallie's 5th birthday party.  She didn't know we were coming, so it was fun to see how excited she was to see Baby Asante.  We also surprised her by bring my cousin's pony for pony rides.  After the party we met up with Grammy, TiTi, Uncle Justin and Baby River for dinner.  It was the first time we met River, and we couldn't get enough! Even though they are just a little over 4 months apart, its hard to imagine Asante was that small, smaller in fact!  Sunday was a very busy day! We went to brunch at Uncle Matt and Aunt Thu's house, and were able to spend some really great time with all of my family! After Asante's very long nap in Cousin Leah's room we went to Aunt Lizzie and Uncle Ryan's house to have dinner with the Aunties: Kirsten, Lizzie, Jenna, and Kaleigh, as well as Uncle Drew and Uncle Ryan.  Monday morning we just relaxed, which was nice.  We picked up Grammy from the airport in the afternoon, before having Asante's 6 month photos taken.  It was so much fun to have everyone there, and we even got some cute pictures of Asante and River.  We headed home Tuesday afternoon.  It was so great to be able to spend time with everyone, but it was WAY too short!  There are a few people Asante still hasn't met, and I hate that! Next time we go he will be over a year old, and hopefully we can stay a lot longer so we can have time for everyone!
Ready for take off!
