The blanket Aunt Sandy made for me

Wow, this was one awesome weekend. Mommy and daddy said we were going to go and meet all of my Napolitano and Vink family. I guess that means there are alot of people who have not met me yet. Well, the only issue is that there is going to be a car ride in my future. We left Olathe around 6:30 and within 20 minutes I had already went #2, so we had to stop and change me. Then I decided a nap was the best way to pass the time. But I saw all of the pretty lights of Topeka, and I woke right up. Mommy and Daddy took me to the Hyatt Place hotel and we spent an hour there eating and watching baseball. (They said I was screaming just a little bit).

After awhile, we made it to Ellinwood it was awesome. I hung out in the basement and the next morning we were off to see Great-Grandma Vink, Aunt Sandy, Uncle Terry and Uncle Craig, and Cousin Jessica. I loved seeing my Great-Grandma, she held me and loved on me. I told her I loved her too. She reminded me that I am named after her and my great-grandpa. Then all of the sudden Grandma Paula came to see me. She then introduced me to my Uncle Mike, Aunt Marla, and Uncle Phil. They were so much fun. Mommy and daddy went to go get a couples massage while I hung out with Grandma.

It was time for our Baby Shower. Oh my goodness there were so many nice people there. Great-great Aunt Maragret, Aunt Marla, Cousin Katrina, Cousin Jessica, Aunt Kim, Aunt Sandy, Nikki, Carol, Aunt Lyndsae, my mommy's childhood friend Shannon, Cousin Dawn, Grandma Paula, Grandma Cindy, and Great Grandma Vink. We had so much fun, but I decided I would cry during it so my daddy came to the rescue and wrapped me up for a nap. It was fun listening to all of the stories grandma Paula and Aunt Marla told about my mommy and cousin Katrina. It turns out Cousin Katrina's tummy hurt alot when she was a baby also, maybe my mommy can find the same medicine that helped her for my tight tummy.
