Norfolk, VA here we come!

In April we took a family trip to Norfolk!


Norfolk is where we are going to medical school! Eastern Virginia Medical School is where Justin will be attending and we are so excited about it! The area is beautiful and surprisingly similar to WA. It is right where the Chesapeake Bay meets the ocean. The flowers were blooming all over the place and the weather was so beautiful while we were there. We visite the beach a few times and the Botanical Gardens. Even the airport was beautiful - just a small airport with flowers and trees all around it. We got really excited to live there and I was thrilled beyond words to hear that snow is a rarity there. I'm very ready for a break from harsh winters. Warm weather here we come! Now we just have to figure out where we're going to live...



Poor Braden has been dragged all over the place in his little life! He has already flown to WA and back twice, and now has Virginia to add to his portfolio of places he's visited in his less than six months of life. Whew! Justin and I were never ones to sit around for very long without going somewhere or trying to be out and about. I guess that hasn't changed too much since we've had Braden.

The "Megan" face. Around this trip Braden started doing this face that we nicknamed after Justin's sister who quite often does a similar face. It was so funny!

Daddy and son time at the beach.
Braden liked touching the sand, LOVED watching the waves, but hated touching the water since it was still a little cold. He just cried everytime we tried to put his feet in. I'm sure that will change as he gets older...hopefully.
