Rodeo 2013

We had a wonderful time at the Austin Rodeo! This was LJ's second year- and he had even more fun than last year!! Our friends Karen, Piper, Sang and Ben were all there!

Checking out the animals... 


Evan slept through the first 20 mins, then enjoyed the rest of our time there!

LJ rode the pony all by himself! He loved it and wanted to go again! 




 
The lady walking this cow asked us if the kids would like to pet it.... then after this picture was taken, the cow seemed to get spooked, knocked poor Ben over and stepped on him! Thank goodness Ben was ok- but it was so sad!

LJ seemed to enjoy petting animals more than he ever has today!




There is a baby in her pouch!!! 

LJ was also surprisingly friendly with the big animals this year - maybe we have a chance at Easter bunny pictures?!! 
Hi five for the pig!
Chicks!
Getting ready to watch the pig races! They were so funny!! 


LJ loved the animals! Hugging.... 
Talking to them..... 
And he got to hold this baby goat! It was so sweet! He just sat there holding it for a while - so happy! 







Hi five for a horse! 
Great morning!!

Trampoline Park

Went back to Trampoline Park on Sunday... LJ has gotten so much better and more confident - guess all the practice time on his little trampoline is paying off! Still so much fun for Dad...  And the Mamas finally get in on all the fun!  Last time we went I was VERY pregnant and couldn't jump... but not this time! I see a frequent Sunday family outing in our future! A little sliding time... And video gaming! Too much fun!!

Ellie - Our Earliest Crawler!

Our little 'surprise' baby got us again and started crawling 2 months earlier than the boys did! She was close for about a week, and then at just about 8.5 months, she took her first crawls! She is getting the hang of it quickly... time to secure the legos that seem to always be all over the floor! First she started rocking on her knees, and doing little army crawls/ knees/ army crawl to get places. Then about a week later, we saw her first crawls. Within a week after those first crawls, she was all over the place!!! She will come find me in the kitchen if I leave her sitting in the living room and will venture all over the house! She's not fast, but she's pretty good! And so proud of herself! Here are some videos of her progress... Ellie's first little mini-crawls: h ttp://www.youtube.com/watch? v=xm3GTgjZXbU And she has mastered the roll-to-sit move!

Mother's Day Celebrations

Image
What a special and spoiled week I had!!! On Tuesday I picked these two precious things up from Champions:  Then the first celebration (well not including the Chick-fil-a mom-son date knight) was on Wednesday. LJ's class at WHPP had a Mother's Day Tea- and how lucky we were that Gigi came to town late on Tuesday night and was able to join me!!  Since Gigi was there (the only Grandmother in the room!), we got a table all to ourselves... and also LJ had twice the amount of work! He served both Gigi and me our tea/ lemonade, cookies, and fruit snacks!  He made me a very fun necklace and made me a new coffee mug all wrapped up...      I started crying when I read it: "This is the hand you used to hold when I was only 4 years old" with a hand print ned to it!!! How special!!  And a flower for Gigi!!!   This was outside LJ's classroom...  I am chopped liver with these two! Haha!!  We picked up Evan a...
