Out-of-Town Guests

Mason has been such an incredible Big Brother. He absolutely LOVES his little sister {he says, "MY Baby"} and he gets excited when he's able to hold Dakota Kate or console her when she cries. I think he's taken to his new role really well and we're so proud of him and how he's adjusted.
It's been 3 weeks with Gigi though and sadly she has to return to Oklahoma to prepare for a relocation in just a few weeks! We're relishing every moment with her in town.
We went to dinner before Gigi left to introduce her to Flip Burger Boutique. This was also our first dinner-outting with the littlest. Here's Mace with Uncle Batman; he was pretty stoked to be surrounded by family...can you tell?
And Dakota Kate even did well since she slept during most of the meal.
This weekend we have several family members in town to meet Baby Dakota Kate. Aunt Mary and Cousin Sophie came in town first. Sophie was so sweet with the baby-we're trying to convince them that we need another cousin!
Sophie just loves her Uncle Scott. Scott gets tickled whenever he sees her too; Sophie softens him up so DK will definitely have Daddy wrapped around her little finger.
Then Grandadder and Aunt BeeBee arrived to meet DK. She looks so little in her Grandadder's arms!
I'm not sure how Aunt BeeBee escaped our pictures, but here's one of Daddy holding Dakota Kate. {sorry BeeBee}
She's 11 days old and oh so sweet!
It was sad to say "Bye" after such a short visit from everyone, but it was quite a treat to have family come in town to meet Dakota Kate and spend time celebrating her arrival.
