Baldwin Bash May 2010

Last week (May 21-23rd) we went up to Idaho to visit Devin's family. It is always good to see everyone. We really wish they'd all just move down here so we could see them all the time. :)
We started the weekend off by getting together at Devin's parent's house. Anna had lots of fun playing outside. She has finally figured out how to swing on the "big kid" swings. But she still can't go too high.

Ashley and Katie had fun using Devin as a punching bag.

That night we FINALLY spilled the beans about being pregnant. It is SOOO nice to not have to try and hide it anymore. My belly is popping out way faster with this baby than with Anna.

We spent the night at Kyle and Kat's house and then went to Jackson Hole the next day. Everyone was shocked that I had never been there before. Anna had an ok time in the car. Poor kid had already spent so much time in the car the day before. Lucky for us Kat had some crayons in the car. Anna had lots of fun pulling the crayons out of the bag and putting them back in. She would rather "organize" than color any day.

As we were driving we happened to see this guy. You don't see that driving down State Street in Orem.

When we got to Jackson it was auction day.

Devin and I discussed what we should purchase for our cabin...oh wait we don't have one and I'd never in a gazillion years want something like that in my house! We had a good time walking through a few shops. It was really cold that day. We kept trying to figure out if it was colder than when we went to Disney World.

We then went over to the Jackson community center indoor pool. We had a nice lunch and were able to celebrate Devin and his brother Gene's birthdays.

We also got a nice group shot of everyone that was there. Devin's family is getting pretty big!

The afternoon was spent swimming in the pool. We were not quite sure how Anna would handle things. Anna was not too happy from being in the car all morning, she was really tired, and it was nap time. We were pretty sure she wouldn't last long in the pool. Oh how very wrong we were. Too bad we don't have any pictures. She loved splashing in the pool, playing with the balls and toys, and LOVED going down the two water slides. Once we got down the slide it wasn't long before Anna started saying, "again, again." This made me very excited to take Anna to the pool this summer. Imagine how much fun it will be outside when it is warm and not inside when it is snowing. :)
That night we hung out with family more. The next day we went with Kyle and Kat to church. Anna did ok in a different nursery. She is still trying to figure things out. During snack time I left and went to Relief Society. When Devin picked her up Anna was very concerned about finding mommy. "Find Mama, Find Mama."
Before we made the long drive home we took some cute pictures of the Baldwin girls.

Anna did fantastic on the drive home. She slept from Ashton to Centerville (3 1/2 hours). I'm sure Sydney enjoyed the ride much more with Anna sleeping. She was able to get a nice nap too.

I guess when you play hard all weekend, skip naps, and stay up late, you get tired. After dropping Sydney off Anna was an angel all the way home. If I had a 3 1/2 hour nap, I'd be in a pretty good mood too.
We had lots of fun. We look forward to going up again soon.
