Houston-bound!

After a full morning on Friday (gym, Spanish music class, lunch), we all got into Barrett's car and headed to Houston for Barrett's cousin Sarah's wedding. We tried to leave right as the boys would be falling asleep for their naps, but of course LJ fought it for about and hour and half! And then finally, we had a quiet car!


Unfortunately, we got to Houston just in time to hit horrible traffic! So it took us about an hour to get to our hotel! We checked in and then headed to Chili's across the street for dinner. LJ was very excited to get his grilled cheese! He is actually say "Yay!!!" and then clapping for it!

And then his corn on the cob came... a favorite!



Happy little monkey! Evan (got a video of him and no pictures- how sad!) did great too! Both had a huge meal, a fun bath back in the hotel, and then right to bed. They got to bed a little late (I think around 8:30), but they slept very well considering! We got a suite and an adjoining room- so Evan slept in the room in his pack n play, LJ slept in his tent in the living room of the suite, and we slept in our room! I can't wait until the boys can share a real bed!! Traveling will be so much easier (but it was actually not bad this time either!).  The wedding was just a few minutes from our hotel (thanks for finding such a perfect place Laura!!), so after a complimentary breakfast, we headed to the wedding on Saturday 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...
