Visit with Great Grandmother & Family in NY


Ramsey's first flight was a red-eye from Salt Lake to JFK. I was so nervous to take him on a plane that my neck was in knots. Fortunately, there was no reason to worry. We got an extra seat for him and were able to keep him in the car seat the whole time.

Ramsey got to meet his first great-grandmother. He did a great job showing off his rolling and talking to her. He also got to see his grandparents again, Aunt Abby, Aunt Sammy, Uncle Justin, Great Aunt Janice, Great Uncle Hap, Great Uncle Greg, 2nd Cousins Jason, Tara, Chris, and Jon and his friend Cal, who was born 36 hours before he was. He traveled around Long Island visiting with family and eating some great food.

Ramsey was also introduced to his father's old stuffed animal monkey. His Aunt Samantha was nice enough to hold onto it while we were in the Peace Corps. Now, if I could only figure out how to wash that "dirty monkey".

This was also Ramsey's first trip to the ocean. We went to Jones Beach, where *someone* decided to dip him into an ice cold wave. Needless to say, he didn't enjoy that as much as the hot springs. We'll have another chance to introduce him to some warmer ocean water in August.
