Quick Trip to Texarkana

Last week, my cousin (Kaci) and I decided at the very last minute that we would meet up the next day in Texarkana.  We both had long drives ahead, but it was the perfect place to meet so we could see all of our grandparents as well.  My mom and I had been trying to find a time to go see baby William so this worked out perfectly.  We headed out on Wednesday after my doctors appointment.  Connor did great on the way up there, but was glad to get out of the car when we got to Momma Lou's house.          
We were all so excited to see William.  He is such a good and easy going baby!  We soaked up every minute with this sweet little guy.

Connor loved getting to spend time with Momma Lou and Ed.  He made himself right at home!

Connor of course was thrilled to have his Mimi there too.  These are two peas in a pod!  I have a feeling Connor might not be so willing to share his Mimi with Carson. :)

We also had a chance to see Papa and Ginny while we were there.  Of course the first thing Connor wanted to do when we got there was go play in the backyard with Papa!  He loves all the space to run around.  We had a delicious lunch that my cousins, Courtney and Callie, joined us for.  Unfortunately after that Connor was in major need of a nap so we didn't last long.

On Saturday we headed back to Austin.  I wish I could say that the trip back was as easy as the trip up, but Connor was done with riding in the car.  We were thankful that he did take about an hour nap.  It was so cute how he wanted his puppy right up next to him. :)  
Even though it was a short visit we had such a great time seeing everyone and were thankful for the time we had.  That will probably be my last long trip for awhile since Carson will be here before we know it!
