Before traveling to our next base, we decided to spend some time in Wisconsin to see family and friends. The majority of Andrew’s extended family is from Wisconsin. Andrew’s parents made plans to fly in as well, since they hadn’t met their grandson yet.

We had an open house one Saturday at Andrew’s grandpa’s house for everyone to come visit and meet Gerrit. Well, wouldn’t you know, my no-nap baby decided to sleep for over 2 hours that day! Everyone kept peeking in on him sleeping peacefully, haha. Eventually, he did wake up and meet his family:




After such a long nap, Gerrit was in a good mood to meet everyone! It was so nice to see so many members of Andrew’s family — it had been way too long. Even though we’ll be quite a ways away from them, I hope we can visit often!
We also were able to visit Andrew’s grandma, who was so excited to meet Gerrit!



It was a lot of driving around to see everyone, but Gerrit was a trooper! I’m glad we were able to take the time to see as much of Andrew’s family as we did.
