Another Indiana trip!

Drew and I flew to Indiana this past weekend, and we had a great time! It's awesome for me to see him recognize and get to know our family there - which is why Chad and I make a huge effort to head that way so often! Here's some videos and pictures from our visit.

Drew LOVES his cousin Lyndsey. I heard Drew cackling and giggling in the kitchen, so I had to go see what was going on. He was holding his little car up to the fridge and Lyndsey was bending down so his car would go down the fridge...and he thought it was hilarious!!

Then later that evening, we realized the three little guys were all in the den...alone! They were being so silly, dancing and jumping around! Here's Drew, Parker and Will being goofy.



We met Sarah, Marc, Tim and Lyndsey at the State Park to ride horses and go for a hike. Here's Lyndsey, Drew and Tim on the mini bench (same bench from our last visit). (By the way, Drew recognized this trail and headed straight for the bridge (yelling "bridge!") before he could even see it - I was impressed!)

Drew didn't care for the pony ride too much. He kept saying "down!" But at least he tried it.

Here he is at the beginning of the ride. It didn't last long - he ended up getting off and walking most of the way, and then we got him back on again at the end.

Here's my dad (Drew calls him Papa now) trying to control Drew's crazy horse....just kidding, the pony was slow, harmless, and kinda sad. His name was Oreo.

One of the colts came over to visit us as we were making our way around the circle. Drew wasn't too sure about him either.

On Monday, Drew had a busy day! First we met up with one of my friends and her son at a gymnastics center - and Drew got to play for an hour! He loved the trampoline and the big blow up crayons. After that, we headed up to Greenwood to meet Julie, Parker and Will and we went to the Children's museum in Indy. I didn't get too many pictures there, but here's one of Drew in the dinosaur room. He loved this room! There was all kinds of loud noises (the dinosaurs roaring would vibrate the room, and there were storm sounds too) - and he got so excited he was squealing! Here he is with the dinosaurs.

The dinosaur room had tunnels, so of course Drew loved those! He would walk in them all squatted down like a duck.

Drew and Parker got to dig for dinosaur bones too!

Then we went to Parker's favorite area - the construction site! Here's Drew hogging shovels and digging in the fake dirt.

Drew had a rough time on the flight to Indiana (didn't want to sit in my lap and fought taking a nap), but he did really well on our flight back to North Carolina. The plane wasn't full, so we got two seats to ourselves. Here he is on the plane ride home.
