So many visitors, so little time
7
Britton had quite a busy week in Utah. He was an angel at the airport and on the plane. He cried once, but as soon as I picked him up he just slept. It was really cold in Utah this week, so it was nice being able to dress him in his long-sleeved outfits he doesn’t get to wear in LA.
Perhaps the coolest thing of the week was Brit’s first real smile! He did it on Thursday morning when he and i were playing. He always smiles a few times when he’s falling asleep, but he was awake this time and did it in response to something. I got this pic. a couple of days later when I actually had the camera.
We saw my cousin Cassie and her baby Kaylee on Wednesday after we arrived. Kaylee and Britton are 10 months apart, so we had fun getting pictures of them together.
Friday Brit got to meet a lot of people…Great-Grandma and Grandpa came for a visit. I think Brit really enjoyed seeing them. And, he was finally able to fit the outfit he was supposed to come home from the hospital in.
Then, my good friend Melissa came over with her husband and super cute daughters. I’m really glad they were traveling through our area and could stop to visit. I haven’t seen them since Thanksgiving. Her daughter Hannah really liked looking at the baby. I thought I had pictures of the both of us together, but apparently that wasn’t my camera. I’ll put it up next post
Later that night we met up with one of my longest and best friends Charlene and her husband and three super cute boys. (I guess my friends either have boys or girls…not both) Brit slept the whole time, so we didn’t get a picture, but we’ll definitely get one next time.
My cousin Pam and her husband Kevin came down with their baby Spencer. He and Brit are only two weeks apart–Spencer is older, but he was born early so he’s a lot smaller.
On Saturday Aunt Teri and Uncle Craig came to visit and loved every minute. Later, we had dinner with some of my parents’ friends–hence, they’re mine too. Thanks Doug, Nancy, DJ, Kesley, Chelsey, Noah, Carli, Sean, Preston, Reece, Dave and Nancy for coming all the way out to American Fork to meet Brit. It was really good to see you.
My mom loved holding Brit, of course, and was a little reluctant to hand him over to everyone else who wanted to hold him too. But, he did like it when she held him and would often quite right down for her.
That’s in my little sister’s room–she has a thing for HSM
Sunday Brit had a lot of visitors too. Neighbors, aunts and uncles and cousins all came to meet him. He did really well with everyone holding him and didn’t seem to mind at all.
My sister Chezney was a little nervous with Brit at first, but by the end she was a pro. I considered hiding her in my luggage and having her comebe my nanny. She was very helpful.

Brit is so loved. Again thank you for letting me hold your baby boy. I really needed it… more than you know! When you have a friend lose a baby, it really makes you value you life even more. I hold my own girls a bit closer and harder now.
Do you want me to email pictures or just send them all on a disc to you? I still need to blog about my weekend! -
WOW! You are gone. (VOID) That was so fun having you two here. We enjoyed you and Brit so much. Its sad not hearing his little newborn cry and seeing him first thing in the morning. Can’t wait to see you all next month. TWICE!!
Love you tons,
