Weekend At Grandmas

This last weekend we were finally able to go back to Utah and see my family. It has been 2 months since we've been able to go due to retarded cars. But Darren was able to replace the wheel barring in the car so we could make the journey to Sandy. (Although now he says its making a new noise...awesome) Right before we left for Utah, Tray and I were playing with some friends, and on the walk home he fell asleep which is never a good thing before heading out. :)

So I got to sit in the back seat with him most the way there and attempt to keep him happy. We played with about every toy we had in the car after which he was still pretty upset. ( He hates the car) BUT as I was starting on my snack his eyes lit up.... And thus we found the secret to happy car rides...

Of course that meant I was out of a snack but oh well... Ya win some, Ya lose some right? :) Right before church on Sunday Tray was taking his afternoon nap, during which he threw up his entire breakfast. It was awful. All over Grandmas bed... Sorry Mom! Tray has never been a throw up/spit up baby, so we knew something was wrong. The rest of our time there he had a fever and was super snotty. Poor guy. I thought it meant he was finally cutting teeth... Buut we still haven't seen any signs of them coming in. I think it may have been caused a bit by the heat. Its always about 10 degrees hotter in Utah and my parents A/C was down... so it was a warm weekend. So we spent most our time outside eating Popsicles, which was actually really nice. Sunday night we had my belated birthday dinner so my older siblings came to visit too. It was really great to see everyone and the babies had fun. Tray got to play with his cousin Maddie, who he doesn't get to see much, so that was great. And he got to play with chalk for the first time. He loved it! Auntie Heather was the first to show him how, then everyone got into it. My silly camera decided it wanted to die half way through the evening, so I only got a few pics. I actually wanted to get pics of Tray with everyone... Next time!

Monday morning my super sweet Daddy took us all out to Sweet Tomatoes.. It was soo yummy! I was really glad for a little more time with them before we had to take off. The food was great and the company was even better. Poor Tray was soo exhausted he slept right through it.. but of course woke up in time to yell at me the whole way home. Unfortunately I didn't have an apple to offer him that time. Our time in Sandy always seems too short. But I am very grateful to my dear husband for spending so much time to fix the sad little car so we could go see them. It was good to come home though and get Tray in our cool apartment and in his own bed. His fever is gone now and he's feeling better...
