BABIES BACK... MOMMA HAPPY

We were SO excited to see our babies. We got there an hour early and I felt like a kid at 4:00am on Christmas morning and mom and dad said we can't get up till 5:00am. We walked the little strip in the SLC airport but it did nothing. Nerves, did the kids do ok, did they handle all the air pressure, did they cry, did they remeber Kynzee's hippo, did she freak out, did Grandma and Grandpa survive, did any of the other passengers try to kill them, did they use benadryl, will they be conscience...it goes on and on. There is only a single shop that you can access as you wait at SLC International Airport and because of all the security I swear there are a MILLION signs that say NO ENTRY, ya tell a mom who hasn't seen her babies in 5 weeks NO ENTRY I show you what you can do with your "entry". Anyway theycan't stop the clock so here came my babies...TALLER...ALIVE...CONSCIENCE...CUTER>>I didn't think it was possible but they are just so beautiful aw just enjoy the moment with us through the pictures.....



Eh, do you see part of the DO NOT ENTER


Then there they are cute as can be with their little back packs. Ah TOO CUTE!!


Daddy and the kiddos gettin' their luggage through the airport, oh so happy.



Oh, my baby girl! I was so excited to be with my baby girl. You see MaKynzee is NOT a cuddler and it hurts my heart a bit. I would try and get her to cuddle with me but she always pushes me away so when she left for so long I thought for sure she would come back even more distant but NO! She was clingy all weekend and I enjoyed every minute of it. She recognized me and gave me hugs and kisses at the airport, oh what JOY and SWEET song BURST from my heart. She is so so sweet. Thanks Kynzee girl!


So after the little reunion we went on a Great-Grandma-a-thon. We visited Grandma Sellers on Thursday, Grandma Rae on Friday and Grandma and Grandpa Bowen Fri-Sunday. Poor Lukas was a little confused he kept saying "Go home, go home now" We kept saying after Grandma's. Which one who knows...LOL. Anyway it was great to let the Great Grandmas see the kids and us see them a bit and catch up... WE LOVE YOU! So after our Great-Grandma-a-thon I had a cousin baptised on Saturday and a distant cousin blessed Sunday. It was fun but a little over whelming at times. I love our family and I could help but feel so strongly about how that needs to be the center of our lives, it is just SO important!


Anyway so at a Bowen gathering you ofcourse have some fun cousins for the wee ones...Lukas ofcourse wouldn't stop asking for 'Oklyn (Brookelyn) and Baby Kira. Here are some fun bath time photos...



Then there was a water fight duh....


Ah...poor Kira she was in the middle! No worries, here she comes...


Happy Cheeks, she survived the water fight and look at that SMILE!


So we all survived to come home to SNOW!!! But we are home, one happy family and I am SO excited...

Hooray!! The babies are home. I don't know how you did 5 weeks. I have never gone more than 12 hours without seeing mine. I totally comiserated with your anxity and pacing in the airport--that's what I do everytime a nurse takes my newborn infant away for tests or shots in the hospital, no rest until they come back!
