Back to Austin

Time to go home already.  Gigi saved the day and flew home with us!! Yay!

Flight was a little delayed so we had time to get some sandwiches for lunch and have a little picnic.

Our plane was only half full, so Evan and I got a row to ourselves and so did LJ and Gigi.

LJ came up and sat with me for a few minutes too. Both boys did great. I realized that LJ enjoys and stays entertained with puzzle/ puzzle apps a lot longer than movies so I downloaded a few new ones for our trip- definitely helpful!  Evan stayed busy putting things into and out of a cup for about 20 mins! Ha!



And now we are back home!  Best news- Gigi is spending the night!!

We headed to Jack Allen's pretty quickly after getting home for our Monday night family dinner. I realized LJ hadn't been around many other kids in a few days, and he was so happy to play with Eagle Jr!


Evan happy to be back in Dad's arms!
And I had to take advantage of the moment and get a pictures of the boys with their 2 'grandmas'... although they are both way too beautiful to believe they are grandmas!









And a last morning with Gigi....  
We picked LJ up from school and I got one final picture! 
Thank you so much for coming home with us Gigi and for all you do (which is way too much!).  Love you!

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...
