Nicholas the First

We recently were lucky enough to be able to head down to Florida to visit Nick's oldest living relatives - his Great Great Aunt and Uncle!! Here we are on the plane ride from Memphis to Tampa. We lucked out and got to bring his car seat on the plane for the flight, which was awesome.
Nick did so well on all of the flights to and from Florida. We were prepared for the worst, but he is a road warrior and our official adventure buddy.
Nick with Great Great Uncle Jim - they were just so sweet together. It's Lys and Jim who dubbed Nick Nicholas the First. It's rather catchy and somehow he will probably be called that for years to come.
Nick playing with Uncle Peter! We were so lucky that not only did we get to see Lys and Jim, but my parents, Peter and Great Uncle Mark and Amy also made the trip down to Florida.
This random bird (okay well it's not so random, since it regularly visits Lys and Jim's backyard) came to visit as well... the bird wanted food... it rejected the lettuce and tomato that we offered first and instead prefered the meat from the club sandwich. Picky little thing.
Nick and I in our condo. Aren't we cute?!
Grandma just couldn't resist the action and wanted some Nick loving as well... but really, can you blame her?!
Nick getting a bottle from Great Great Aunt Lys. He just loved all of the Mason women. He's already a lady's man, at the age of 7 months... we are so in trouble...
Nick with Great Aunt Amy... it's a good thing he likes posing for pictures!
Hanging with Great Uncle Mark.
One of my good friends from college, Larissa, lives about 10 minutes away from Lys and Jim and we were fortunate enough to be able to have lunch with her, her boyfriend and some of her friends. It was such a treat to catch up and have a lunch sans baby!
The family (minus Eric the photographer and Nick who's out of the picture).
Hanging out in the bath tub being as cute as ever
