Lake Trip and Carter's Newest Cousin

Well, I thought I would take a break for a moment from the pregnancy updates and instead give a brief rundown of our trip last weekend to Hot Springs. We started out by hopping on a tiny little plane flown by Seaport Airlines with a whopping three other people on it in order to fly there. (5-hour drive plus a 2-year old? NO THANKS.) It was...interesting.

Upon arrival, we had to immediately go eat at the local favorite, McClard's BBQ. He may not look much like me, but my son is a WADE. He shoveled it in!

We spent the rest of the time swimming at the pool...

 Sorry for the maternity swimsuit here...YIKES!

riding on the boat...

playing putt-putt...

hanging out at the house...

and just having fun as a family. It was such a sweet time because it was just the three of us all weekend, and I know those days are numbered. (In a good way, of course!)

We also found out while we were there that Carter has a new cousin! My brother, Stewart, and his wife, Gillean, welcomed their second boy, Owen Paul Wade, into the world on June 20th after 22 hours of tough labor. The big boy was nearly 9 pounds and 21 inches long! He is so precious, and we can't wait to meet him! Welcome to the family, Owen!
