Visiting Memaw and Grandpa in LA

At the beginning of May, Dougle was presented an opportunity to go to a Character Counts seminar in LA. For us, it was an even greater opportunity and excuse to go to LA to visit his mom and step-dad at the same time. So, ROAD TRIP it was! Canaan has been a wonderful traveler ever since the first time we took him to Dallas when he was just three weeks old! Once again, he proved to be a laid-back and excellent traveler. In the car, Canaan slept, played with his toys, and learned to shake rattles! Once at Memaw and Grandpa's he was loved upon and spoiled even more than ever- if that was even possible! We had such a good time catching up with Cindy and Fred, and they had a great time spending time with their newest grandchild! While we were there, Memaw and Grandpa got to see Canaan's first tooth come in! It came with lots of extra fussing, but they were troopers and did an great job soothing his pain and misery. Canaan especially liked the outdoors and the warmth in sunny LA. That actually proved to be the ultimate teething soother- a walk outside with the grandparents! While our time there seemed short, we had a wonderful visit and were blessed with safe journeys both there and back!
