Stella meeting the Family in North Caroina

We were so excited to go visit North Carolina, It was full of first for Stella. First time meeting all her Aunts, Uncles, and cousins except Uncle Jared and Aunt Shannon and or course cousin Colton, who she meets next month. First time being on a plane, first time in North Carolina!

Stella did great at the airport and on the plane, she loved to look out the window!! ( I don't know what she was looking at, after a while anyone would get board.... but not Stella !!) She never cried and she made mommy and daddy proud!!!

We were even lucky enough to have a open seat next to Jonny and I on our last flight that helped.

Deacon is such a baby lover, he just loves to hold and snuggle all the little girls! He was always running up so me after playing outside and asking me if he could hold her. He would RUN to the sink wash his hands and hold them out for me to see how clean they were, so he could hold Stella.

Both these boys always wanted to feed her and hold her and kiss her! It made me so happy that they loved her so much! It seemed like Mason and Deacon fed Stella most of her bottles... it was great !!!! Mason even put Stella to sleep and he was VERY proud of it, he told everyone in the house! He is such a good brother.

We went over to Vanessa's and Mikes House and hung out with them for a while. We even made it to one of Masons Basketball Games!!! He was so excited and was the tallest kid on his team! Watching a bunch of 6 year olds playing basketball was run and comical at the same time. Mason even made a basket!!!!! After the game we went back to the house and of course Uncle Jonny had to wrestle with the boys. They love Jonny so much, it makes me so happy that Jonny wants to live near all the nephews and nieces, because he wants to play and spend time with them. Throughout the whole trip, Jonny would disappear, next thing I know he is walking in with the boys from walking in the woods, or down stairs watching curious George with the kiddos.

All the grand kids LOVE Pa, of course they LOVE Grammy to, but when Pa whips out  POPPY The Sailor Man on his phone things get serious!!!! This kept them busy for a long time, I was impressed.

Stella loves to get rocked, and its even better when Pa rocks her and sings to her! I just love seeing my parents with all the grand kids, because I feel like it gives me a glimpse of how they treated us as kids. My parents are the BEST, I'm so lucky to have been so blessed to have such a great mom and dad, but now Stella has an amazing Grammy and PA!
