First big trip, doctor's office tricks and a day at the races!

We've had a busy couple of weeks! Last weekend Landon made his first big trip to see his grandparents, and great grandparents on my side of the family and lots of other cousins, aunts, uncles and friends too! He did really well on his first trip and we are so excited that he got to meet his great grandparents and Aunt Lindy. They drove all the way from Columbus, KS to meet him and seeing them with our little guy was priceless. He also got to meet some of my friends from High School and their kiddos. It was such a fun weekend and we can't wait to go back! Next time I'll get more pictures at the farm with Mimi and Papa.

Last Thursday I had to take Landon to the doctor to have some blood drawn so they could check his thyroid levels again...they were a little high when they first checked. I was so nervous because last time the poor little guy screamed so loud and I wanted to cry right along with him. This time I made sure he had on short sleeves so we wouldn't have to mess with that and I brought a bottle to give him right after. The lab ladies suggested that I start his bottle before the got started and believe it or not he didn't even notice they were there!!! I was amazed! He was so into the bottle he didn't even flinch when they stuck him! So, all you mommies out there...take a bottle next time your kiddo has to have blood drawn!

Yesterday Jim and I went with my family and friends to the horse races. It was our first time to be away from him all day and he had a great time with Nana and Papa! We had so much fun at the races...however, I stink at picking ponies! I set a new personal record and only cashed one ticket all day...and lost money on that one! A few in our group won big...but Jim and I definitely didn't! Afterwards we went to the Brau Haus since we missed going there this year for my birthday and it really wasn't as good as it usually was. I was disappointed and hated that my family's first time to eat there wasn't that great...but we had a good time visiting. Sadly, I didn't get any fun pictures of our day.

These pictures are at Poppy's house where he got to meet his great grandparents, Aunt Lindy and Gayle. I thought I got some pictures of Aunt Lindy and Gayle but I think my memory card was popped put and and now I can't find them.

This is Great Papa with Landon...he used to get down on the floor and play with me like this too!
