First Family Trip

We had our first family trip this past weekend and Kate had many, many first that went along with it.  I am just going to go ahead and warn you there are not going to be any pictures with this post because I failed to take a single picture over the long weekend…Kory will have to post some that he got.

We got the opportunity to go to Dallas this past weekend along with all of my family on my mom’s side.  My Aunt and Cousins from California came down because they played in a hockey tournament and we all went to visit them.  The following is a list of all of Kate’s firsts (I tried to put them in sequential order):

1. First road trip (slept all the way there 7pm – 12am)
2. First hotel stay
3. First time to throw up in a hotel
4. First time to throw up at the breakfast buffet of a hotel
5. First time to visit a hockey rink (missed the game)
6. First time to meet Aunt Cindy and Cousins Ciaran & Aidan
7. First time to go to the Galeria
8. First time to have picture taken in a actual studio
9. First time to throw up during photo session in studio
10. First time to throw up in trash can at photo studio
11. First time to see Saints win a playoff game
12. Experience first hockey game
13. First time to have mean little boy kick toys
14. First time to experience a fire alarm go off (during the middle of the night)
15. First time to poop and pee on daddy in public
16. First time to wear clothes washed at a Laundry-mat
17. First time to throw up in a Olive Garden
18. First time to poop so much it came out every hole in diaper and leaked threw 3 layers of clothes.
19. First time to stay in executive suite (upgrade due to fire alarm and broken air)
20. First trip to Tyler, TX.
21. First time to play in Toys R Us and pick out first birthday presents!
22. We think she may have even had her first “step/steps” when we got home.

Many of you may see a recurring theme here?!?  Yes, we had a very adventurous first family trip, but we all really enjoyed getting to spend time with family.  Hopefully Kory will post some pictures soon.

Kate’s first birthday is only 12 days away!!!! :O  (I am not ready)
