Airplanes in the night sky
Harper had her first ex-utero airplane ride this past weekend as we visited Laredo and Trent’s extended family there to celebrate Trent’s grandparents 65th wedding anniversary. 65 years! So impressive. It was Harper’s first opportunity to meet her great-grandfather (Big Pop) and great-grandmother (Grandma Fina) on the Talamas side of the family, as well as Aunt Gloria, Uncle George, Uncle Tony, Uncle Patrick, and cousins George, Miriam, Cristina, and Mia. She also got to see her Aunt Adriana for the second time, and her Auntie Sus-Sus, Uncle Chris, and cousins Cooper, Molly, and Anna. It was quite the gathering with a lot of kiddos! And served as some free birth control for cousin Cristina.
Unfortunately, Harper was a bit under the weather, which put her tolerance for new people and places at a low. She took one look at Big Pop and started crying – I really think it was the glasses though! We got home to Dallas to find a few days later that she has her first ear infection, poor baby.
Here are a few pics from the weekend:

I am sorry that I had not idea that you guys were updating the blog as often as you were. Now I will make a point to come check it out more often. I just love Harper to pieces and I loved spending time with her during this trip and our most recent farm trip. Sarah you are such a great Mom and Harper is so lucky to have you. Trent, of course, you are a great dad too. I hope you know that I plan to spoil Harper rotten when she comes to stay with me when she is older!!!
