Although we live in Kansas, which is several hundred miles away from our family, Matthew has been able to meet most of our immediate families. We are really blessed to have a great family, that doesn't mind traveling a lot to meet Matthew and love on him.
Aunt Kristin, Uncle Joe and cousin Emma drove from College Station to visit the week after Matthew was born. Emma was more than excited to meet her first baby cousin, and told us all several times a day, "I like him".
Aunt Kristin helped us a lot with some practical baby tips, she's a pro at being a mom!
Emma and Aunt Kristin made matching cousin shirts. We can't wait to meet cousin Cate next month and get a picture of all three of them!
Everyone had a blast while they were here. The weather was beautiful and we all enjoyed a lot of time outside playing on the playground, grilling, frisbee, and relaxing.
Papa flew in for a weekend to meet his first Grandson. They really hit it off and Matthew was so sweet to him!
Matthew even tried to show off, eating extremely well for Papa.
We had a good time visiting, showing him around post, and just starring at our precious Matthew.
Grammy came back for her second visit to help with Matthew while Shane was in the field for the first time. She was a huge help since we had quite a few obstacles to face while Dad was gone. Matthew enjoyed (maybe too much) lots of one on one time with Grammy, aka spoiling!
