Texas Trip

So, we headed to TX a week or so again. We had lots of fun seeing family and friends. Nick and I even spent some time alone. We drove on Thursday to Dallas to see Nicks' sister Sandy and hubby Josh and sweet cousin Mac and new cousin Gus. Sorry no pics of Gus. I guess when I had my hands on him I was not even thinking about pics, bc he was so super yummy.
We went to diner at a fun place that had a sprinkler park. Reed ran and ran around the water. To say the least he did not want to stop to eat.

On Friday we took the boys to the park, where they had dumped some huge piles of mulch. Tractor loving Reed was super glad he had a tractor to help spread it. Mac even got in the spirit, to bad we only had one tractor to share.
On Friday night we stayed with our friends Matt, Yvette , and Abigail. For some reason I never got my camera out. But Yvette made yummy dinner, then us ladies went to see a late movie after the kids where in bed. Who knows what the daddy's did??

On Sat. morning we drove down to New Braunfels TX to meet my mom, dad, brother and his girlfriend for a couple of fun days at Schilterbahn. It was Reed's first water experience of the summer.






My dad, Nick, and Lauren swung on this crazy 4 story high swing thing. My stomach hurt watching. They are crazy!



On Sunday afternoon my mom and dad took Reed back to College Station with them. Nick and I checked into a bed and breakfast. We floated the Gaudalupe river, ate yummy food, and visited historic Gruene, TX.







On Tuesday we headed to College Station to see our boy and spend a couple more days with my fam. They had a yummy fish fry with fish that my dad and Nick caught.



On Thursday morning Reed got to go fishing for the first time. Pop pop caught one, but Reed quickly told him to put it back.





It was a great trip. Thanks to all the family and friends that let us stay and put up with us. We love you all.

Strawberry Picking

We went strawberry picking a couple of weekends ago. Reed had a great time eating and picking. We took them home and Nick made yummy strawberry jam with them.

Easter 2011

Flash Back Friday!

April 2009

April 2010

I have not done a flash back in a while, so as I sit staring at this little boy who looks like a boy and not a baby I post these baby pics. Now I will go cry for a while.

Spring has Sprung

Here are a few recent pics of the crazy sweet little boy. The weather is finally warming up and we are getting out more. Enjoy!

Playing in the dog kennel is still so fun.

Mowing the grass with daddy.

We had the sidewalk in the backyard torn out, so Reed got to see the tractor up close. But he wanted to watch from inside. He was a tad scared of it.

While I was cleaning out my car, he did some driving.

Big Boy Room

This is the room when we bought the house. This is Reed and our fab real estate agent Debbie. (Sorry not the best pic).


So we have finally finished Reed's big boy room. The walls are called Bewitching Blue. I of course not let this sign go, so it is still hanging above his closet door. I am sure there will come a day when I have to take it down to hang up a Star Wars poster.

He picked out his bedding and we are going with the tractor/car/boyish theme. He loves his big boy bed and had a super easy transition into it right before Christmas.

I am still looking for a new dresser and a different bed side table, but no rush, just waiting for the right one.

Ok, so now we are going to flash back to his nursery (insert tear here). I have moved all the doggy stuff to the playroom.

Long time no blog!

So I know I haven't blogged in a while. Sorry. Not much has been going on. Today is Valentines, and I am so in love with two men. One a little shorter than the other, but both just amazing. So here are a couple of things we have been doing in honor of all the love in this house.

Reed made a mess and Valentines for all the grandpas, grandmas, and cousins.

We bought Reed a fish tank for Valentines. He loves to watch the fish at the library, so we figured he would love his own. And of course he does. He is already asking for more fish. He wants to add an orange and gray one as of this morning.

So proud to be a fish owner.

Then on Sun. night we all went to the circus. He was not a huge fan, so we only stayed for half of the show. The one thing he LOVED was the jump roping guys. He danced and jumped along with them in our seats. All the other acts he kept asking to go home. I don't blame him circus' kind of creep me out too.
