Trip to Oregon

In July we went to Portland, Oregon to visit my grandma (who Avery calls Baby Grandma). She is very sick and we wanted her to meet Evan and see Avery again (Grandma last saw her when she six months old). It was the first airplane trip for Evan and the first one Avery could remember. Evan did not do well on the flights there but was great on the way home. At one point all we could do was let him cry until he passed out in my arms. NOTHING made this kid happy and everyone around us had to endure his wrath for 10 minutes until he passed out. Yes, we were that family on the plane. Worst age to fly with a child. Avery did fantastic and was very anxious to see Baby Grandma.

The kids were thrilled to see Uncle Brian when we got to my uncle's house. They had not seen him since Christmas. Avery did not want to go to the store with me because she wanted to stay with him. Very unusal for Avery, she usually goes everywhere with me.
