Trip to Canada to visit Grandma and Grandpa Lowen

Went to Canada in the end of April to the begining of May to visit grams and pops.  Big  deal since it was Natalies first plane trip.  She got her wings early! lol   She did so good on the plane trip.  No crying, just on the desent, but I think her ears were popping (poor girl)  She literally slep the whole way there!  Hope the whole way back is just as good!

First day we hung out with Grandma and went shopping at Market mall.  It was fun.  Then we had a barbeque with Grandpa.  He made bratwurst.  It was very good!   We didnt have a bed for Natalie so we had to make shift and ended up buying a portable baby change pad for her to sleep on. lol we were creative. lol

Grandma's best friend Bobby came over to see Natalie for the first time.  She was quite the hit :)


Say cheese

We were getting ready to head out shopping and Natalie was watching some TV while Grandma was talking to Uncle Mark on the phone.  The TV really grabs her attention.  She is so into it haha


Smile for the camera

HI!!!


                                                         She is super happy about something!



Grandma was able to really capture some good pictures of Natalie smiling while we were shopping


She looks a little perplexed...

She is truely her fathers daughter.  This is the what she looks like right before she is about to eat! Her dad gets the same look when food is infront of him lol


My good friend Sarah William's who I haven't seen in probably 2 years if not more, came over to visit with Natalie.  She brought us an amazing baby gift as well.  Here she is with baby Natalie.

We went to visit Grandpa at his work for lunch and then met all of his co-workers.  We walked around to everyone in his office introducing them to Natalie.  This is a very proud papa!!!!! Nellz was a huge hit!  She also had he biggest blowout on papa's desk and all over his papers.  Had to change the clothes and everything.  I guess when you have to go, you have to go!

First time meeting Uncle Mark

That night, we met up with Uncle Mark for the first time for his Birthday dinner.  He was so excited to meet his little niece and pretty happy to be a first time uncle.

Natalie's first trip to visit the Great grandma and the Hillgartner's


This was a really fun trip.  It was the first time that Great Grandma met Natalie and Great Aunty Janice, Great Uncle Allan, and Aunty Shannon.  Uncle Trever and Ryan couldn't make it sadly.  Great Grandma thought Natalie was the cutest thing and understands how Grandpa keeps bragging about our little princess.  She had a lot fun.  She had her first tommy time at Great Grandma's

I love her cute little pink shorts.  It was a beautiful day that day.  We took a walk down kensington with Grandma and mommy
