carter and i got back from our two week visit in AZ last weekend. it was carter's 'coming out' and he was able to meet so many friends and family. it was two weeks full of grandparents, aunts, uncles, friends and cousins galore. i was mortified about flying with carter but he did really well. there was just one incident on the flight from detroit to phoenix. from the time we boarded to the time we took off he was screaming bloody murder. and when he gets like that, only sleep will calm his rage. so everyone is trying to board, rolling their eyes as they realize they are near the screaming baby, the flight attendant was trying to walk with him but nothing was helping. so people shuffled seats and a very nice woman named jan volunteered to sit with us and help me. i was very grateful to her and for her moral support (truly an answer to my prayers). we got the middle seat next to us vacant and once the plane tool off, carter fell asleep and was an angel the rest of the way. it worked out well because he was able to clear the area and we got more room and nice neighbors. and on the flight home everyone complimented me on how good my baby was. thank heaven!!! thanks to everyone who traveled and took time out to visit us and to all who fed and transported us!! we really appreciate it. poor tyrell was home alone for two weeks. when we got home he had the house sparkling and flowers waiting. he was really glad to see us and we were glad to see him too. next time we'll bring him along to have some AZ fun!

Are you even serious?? I think we were in AZ at the same time. I was in Show Low even from April 21-26. Please tell me we're not complete morons and would not have been able to see each other anyway. Looks like a great time--love the pic of you and all your friends with your babies. I hope none of those little girls are gonna try to hone in on Lauren's territory.
