Boppa and Nana Come to Visit


My parents came to visit for Alice's first birthday.

We hadn't seen them since Christmas.

Alice was just 3 months old then.

This was about 10 minutes after they got to our house.


Since the main point of the visit was to spend as much time with Alice as possible, we hung out at home a lot.

Playing patty cake with Nana.





Playing with bubbles for the first time.



We went to the capitol building in downtown Baton Rouge.

It is the tallest capitol building in the US and is really beautiful.



 You can go to the top and look around.

To the North.


The Mississippi river. (To the West)


 Downtown Baton Rouge.  (To the South)



To the East.


 Alice in front of the Capitol building.


We went to New Orleans for the first time.

My parents had been before so they played tour guide.



The French Quarter



Alice chasing pigeons at Cafe Du Monde while we ate beignets. 






This was the "after party" on Alice's birthday.

She gets an extra boost of energy around 8 pm.  She can get pretty crazy.






She especially likes to attack your face with her mouth wide open.









It was a fun visit though it went by too fast.

Good thing Christmas isn't too far off so she can get loved on by all the grandparents :o)

That picture of Alice in front of the capitol building kills me! So cute. Also, post army Stephen hair is the best!
