The Summer of Bassett visits

We were thankful to have many Bassetts interested in coming to visit Naomi over the course of the summer.
In May, Uncle Jonathan is back from South Korea and making the rounds.
Nana arrives and is wearing matching pink polka dots!
Papaw helps post-bath.
Naomi has impeccable posture already!  Uncle Jonathan comes back through in May, overlapping with a Nana and Papaw visit.
 One object of affection: Nana. A second: Nana's camera case.
 Cozy times with the Peterson family, who we are thrilled to have nearby in Bedford.
 Talking a walk with Uncle Jonathan; braving the heat.
In June, Nana and Papaw are back, and we venture out to IKEA! Naomi is initially happy to let the adults look for the perfect table. But seriously, Mom, how much longer do you think?

 Gnawing on her toy to pass a few precious moments; giving in to her thumb as the deliberation continues.
 Collecting the fruits of Naomi's patience.
Aunt Rachel visited too!  Thankfully, Nana snapped this photo or we would have no evidence of this June visit.
Aunt Rachel captured Naomi chilling in her bumbo.
 Visiting Daddy's classroom at Covenant Christian Academy.
 Smiling at Aunt Tami who stopped by the classroom, and Uncle Joel is here also! August means Phil is also back to work.
 Uncle Joel brings more of what Naomi loves: a computer and phone to admire.
Squeezing in cozy time with the parents.

Oh, Uncle(s)!


Phil's parents are back two weeks after the Weekend of the Uncles, passing through on their way to Colorado.
 Two loved constants of a Bassett grandparent visit: the guitar and the camera case.
 A little tax-free shopping; actually totally free - because nothing was purchased. Just checking to see how Texan Naomi is.
Papaw helps feed Naomi, so we can enjoy our...
 ...fondue dinner!  An early birthday celebration includes a meat/broth fondue with 7 sauces and a chocolate fondue with delicious dippers.
Definitely a packed summer: fun and family galore.
