The Rest of Our KC Trip...

...okay, so I spent all last week discussing the half that I didn't even get a chance to talk about the rest of our trip to KC! We stayed with two of our favorite people, Candace and Chad and BABY COLIN! I finally got to meet him on his one month birthday. I was so nervous on Friday night that I didn't even hold him but we totally bonded on Saturday.

At lunch on Saturday, Colin puked all over his mom's Cubs' shirt she was wearing-right then I knew this kid and I were going to get along. Then when Matt's cousins sat down for lunch, I pointed to Candace and Colin and without thinking said, "This is my friend Colin..." Candace and I gave each other a weird look and started busting up laughing. The rest of the weekend we joked about my friend Colin and his lame parents that had to tag along. Isn't he a handsome little devil?Saturday afternoon after a belly full of bbq and 13.1 miles on my legs, I laid down for a nap as did Candace and Colin. Bad idea! The boys finished off this (note to Candace and I-do not leave boys unattended):
Sunday morning we got up early to get on the road because I had to make it back to work that afternoon. While we were getting going, Candace ran to the store and got donuts. See the ones on the far left, those are peanut butter donuts. You all know my love for peanut butter, right? O!M!G! This was like a Reese's donut melting in my mouth...I have found a new love...Before we left, I tried to snap a shot with all of the Stracener children but both the dogs don't look they have heads so this was the best shot. Me holding Colin and giving Marley a good belly rub. C, C & C-thanks for having us! We had a great time!!! Can't wait to see you all again and I hope it's soon!

Oh my God, those doughnuts look like heaven! I haven't had one in so long!

Also, we have the same carseat, and it is awesome.

I have total baby fever right now ( don't ask) and I wish there was a little tiny baby I could snuggle on for a few hours!

And mMmm donuts. I usually hate them, but for the last 4 weeks I've been craving one ( maple bar!). But I'm holding out till California so I can go to C's fav place.

Hilarous lil tidbit about him puking on the Cub's shirt. I agree he got it right! :)
