'Philly' Trip Vol. 2

Ok, lets get back on track, back to Alexi's first road trip. So after the Pool Show we stayed at Aunt Tracy, Uncle Adam, and cousin Tristan's house, in Jersey. Not only did they host us for 4 nights, they opened their home to the whole family to throw the "Come Meet Alexi" party for Kerith's side of the family.

Alexi had so much fun getting to meet everyone who came, and lots of people did! She stayed awake through most of it and was just eating up all the attention. One of her favorite people she met was her cousin, Hunter. Hunter is 4 months old and already taller than Alexi! He's a big guy, and Alexi just couldn't take her eyes off of him. It was the first time she really showed interest in another baby that much and was so cute to see. They even held hands on their own!

Once the party wound down and all that remained was the immediate family, Alexi got to celebrate "Christmas in January" with her cousins Taidgh, Ronan, and Tristan. Alexi got so many wonderful gifts both from her cousins and from family during the party, which was an unexpected yet pleasant surprise! Her cousins seemed to love the gifts she got them too. ;)

Having an extra Christmas sure was a treat, though nothing beats getting to spend some extra quality time with her Lolli, Pop, and especially her Gigi. A fun little fact; Alexi gets her middle name from her Great Grandma Ola (aka Gigi.) Living over 300 miles from half of her family, Alexi doesn't get to see them everyday, so she really soaks up the love every chance she gets!

Ok, so it turns out that Philly wasn't even a stop in this trip at all. Why was it our 'Philly' Trip, you might ask? Well my wife grew up in Levittown, north of Philly, and most of the family still lives around the city somewhere. So we have always called our trips across the state to visit, our "Philly" trips.

Thanks again to everyone that came to meet Alexi, we had so much fun, and especially again to the Morgans for hosting everything!
