Noah's First Trip to Hendersonville

We're back from our trip to the beach, so I can finally update the blog. Noah experienced a lot of "firsts" over the past 10 days. He did great on his first car ride (about 3 hours) to Hendersonville and slept the entire way.

After settling in and unpacking our car-load of (mostly baby) things, we went to visit Eric's grandmother for her to meet Noah for the first time.

We then stopped by to see Tyra's mom (visiting from Florida) and grandmother too. So, Noah got a lot of great-grandmother love that day!

On that Saturday (May 10), Noah went with Mommy and Daddy to get our new car!! We got a 2008 "white diamond pearl" Honda Accord from our great friends at Trickett Honda. Cousin Thomas will be inheriting our old '92 Accord when he returns to UT for his sophomore year in August, so at least my baby (the old Accord) will still be in the family! Yay for new cars!!


We had a few minutes to stop by to see Eric's Uncle Greg and Aunt Susan at their house. Noah greeted Susan with a big smile and a lot of spit up, which was funny to everyone, even Susan!
Noah met his Uncle Lakon and Aunt Holly, along with cousins Aidan and Dylan too on Saturday. They had a little accident and their house was full of smoke that day, so we met them at Sonic in Hendersonville...at least we were able to take advantage of the Sonic slushie "happy hour!"

After our Sonic excursion, Noah went to his first wedding. Here is a picture of Noah being held by the groom (Ryan McDuffie), with Dad and best buddies Adam and Lewis. Congrats to the newlyweds Ryan and Lindsay McDuffie!!


The next day was Mother's Day and it was extra special, as Noah got to spend it with Mommy and both grandmothers Gigi and JenMommy in Hendersonville. These past three months have given me an EXTRA appreciation for Tyra, my mom, and ALL mothers for the indescribable love they have for their sons and daughters. They aren't thanked enough! Hip, Hip, Hooray for Moms!
