Luca and I got to Ohio late on Tuesday evening, and Nicole was waiting for us right out the gate! Luca loved on her while I gathered our bags and waited, and waited and waited for the carseat to come. Then they turned off the baggage carousel, no carseat. So I went to talk to the ladies and they said that Salt Lake had emailed them, saying that it, and a few other bags were still there--super helpful.
I wasn't sure what to do--I couldn't leave without a carseat! Then they told me they had loaners they could give me, and then they could deliver mine when it finally came, or I could pick it up for a $50 Southwest voucher! Grandma and Grandpa live so close to the airport, so we opted to come back to grab it, totally worth it! I got a call around 9pm that it had finally gotten there, so we went to grab it the next afternoon.
Luca didn't nap at all on the plane, which shocked me--we had to get up at 6am to be on time for crying out loud, so on the way home he was fading, and I kept asking if he was tired, but he always said no, of course--this was probably 6 minutes after.
Nicole came with me while Luca napped and we were supposed to run a few different errands after, but I spaced it after getting a call from sara--its all her fault--and came straight back to the house. Once we got here and I hung up the phone I noticed that my mom had texted me asking if I could grab a few things for dinner, and then I remembered the other stuff we were supposed to do--so we headed back out.
Kenz said she was planning on coming down that on Saturday on her way to a birthday party--so we were so looking forward to seeing them and their new babe!!
When we got back from our errands there was a white van out front, and I knew it was Mackenzie's, but Nicole said it was probably just a neighbor--BUT IT WAS her! She came down to be all sneaky.
Nicole totally knew she was coming too, but she played well.
We got some snuggle time with little baby Lyla, or "Wywa" as Luca calls her, and he was soft as can be with her. He gave her lots of kisses.
He was not besties with Tony at first, but they persevered, and became buds--Tony gave him candy, so of course that set him up for success.
Kenz is the most adorable, attentive mommy ever, its the sweetest to watch. Lyla is one lucky babe.
Halie had Morgan Bair over for a bit, and they entertained Luca in the kitchen for over a half hour, under the table for most of that, he was dying of laughter.
Tony and Mackenzie brought Tribbi with them, and Tony was taking the dog out for a long walk so we attempted the ergo baby, he didn't love that thing--I never used one with him, so he's just not used to it!
Nicole ended up going with them, so she pushed him in the stroller.
Tribe took over after a while, and pulled Luca along, that dog is a helpful one.
Luca only got probably 10 more mosquito bites on that walk, I have got to go get some bug repellent.
Luca was good with the babe for the most part, but sometimes he just needed love, and didn't want to be ignored.
We love that they came down to see us so fast!! We will see them again on Sunday on their way back up home, and then we will go up to stay with them for a bit.

That night was just the happiest ever with so many of us here!
