Meet the Lintons

We went to Utah where Bergen got to meet a lot of Linton family. We had to wait for a couple of flights to get there since we were flying standby. And let's face it, July is a very busy flying time of year. Thankfully Bergen was very good for us while we waited and waited at the airport.
Once we got on the plane it was almost 9:00pm. Before we even pushed back, Bergen started crying, and not a very quiet cry either (at least to us). We tried a few things before we pulled out the bottle. He quickly calmed down, started drinking and within almost seconds he was asleep. It probably was only 3 or 4 minutes of crying, but in that situation it felt like 20! I'm sure many of you know what I'm talking about! He stayed asleep the entire flight, while we got our luggage and the ride home. He woke up long enough to say hi to grandma and then went back to sleep for the night.
We and all the Markle cousins (Travis' sister's family) spent an afternoon with Grandma and Grandpa Stewart. The Markles live in Houston but we were in Utah at the same time. Baby Cash was due just 4 days before Bergen, but Cash decided to come early so they are a month apart.
Four generations of Linton boys on the front porch.
Travis' Dad, his Grandpa, Travis and Bergen.
It was such a nice day and Travis' parents yard is so pretty I made his dad take a few pictures of us, even though Bergen was past his prime for taking pictures. I love this picture of us, but Bergen is not so happy. Kind of cute still, but probably not one I should put on the wall :)
And finally a picture of Bergen's Grandpa and Grandma.
The morning we left we stopped in Salt Lake, right by Pioneer Park for some waffles with Trav's parents and brother Tyler. Another pretty day. Self timer...too bad I couldn't get the camera straighter.
There are more fun pictures of kids and babies together but we didn't get them on our camera. I'll have to post those later! It was good to see almost the entire family while we were in Utah. We had a lot of fun together. Thanks for having us!
