Grandma & Granddaddy picked us up and we spent our first week with them.
Happy girl on an airplane!
Somebody loved his bath in the utility sink!
Amelia's princess chair now fits her just right.
And little brother even had some time in it.
Aunt Diane getting snuggles
Cousin Harrison showing her his iPod; this electronics-deprived girl was thrilled!
He was so sweet with Amelia! He took her to the piano and tried playing real music while she pounded alongside of him. He left an impression on Amelia - she goes up to his photo on our fridge and declares "my cousins!"
Aunt Laura snuggles
Giggling at Great Granddaddy
Amelia's family opted to thoroughly introduce her to the princess stage of a girl's life - a tutu and princess castle!
Every year we play a "White Elephant" type game with a theme - this year everyone was to bring an Auburn-themed item (since everyone is either an Auburn alum or supporter and we were going to the BCS championship game). Patrick ended up with this stadium chair which Amelia quickly hijacked.
Uncle Nathan is cool enough to play with a princess castle.
Laura & Nathan blessed us with two nights of help with our sleep-troubled guy.
Amelia learning how to play basketball!
Chilling with Uncle Nathan
We had Austin's first time in a swimming pool - it was a bit cooler than normal so he didn't like it as much as a bath. But Amelia is a fish and was happy to kick and swim and be thrown around by her daddy.
Apparently this is the fancy treatment Austin gets early in the morning when he's dropped off with grandparents.

Trying to make sure it doesn't hit Great Granddaddy's car that we borrowed
Amelia remembered that she and Granddaddy would breathe on the windows and draw so there was a repeat.
