Meeting Ariana Down on the Bayou

Last week was the biggest adventure yet. Mommy, Auntie Rachel, Lena and I went to New Orleans to visit Jack, Emilie, Luke, Mr. Kyle and Ms. Erin. I will tell you more about that visit later. Then on Friday, Daddy flew down and picked us up in a big black SUV. We drove to Baton Rouge for Uncle Rhye's graduation from LSU.

Our visit to Baton Rouge was full of firsts. It was the first time any of us had met cousin Ariana, Uncle Rhye and Aunt Jessica's little girl. Cousin Ariana is five months old and she jumps up and down a whole lot. She is really cute. She doesn't have much hair, but she smiles a lot.

In addition to meeting Ariana, this was the first time that Mimi got to see and hold Lena in person. Here is a picture of the first time Mimi held Lena.

Daddy took lots of pictures and so did Auntie Rachel. Daddy really likes this picture of Ariana and Auntie Rachel.
