LJ Goes to the Airsho in El Paso

Gigi promised LJ he could go to the Airsho with her this year, and he was so excited! Since it was at the Santa Teresa Airport where Capi and Gigi's hanger is, and they were hosting several events, Gigi had to leave on Halloween to be there for everything. But I really wanted LJ and Evan to have Halloween together and go trick-or-treating, so we asked Uncle Joe to fly LJ day the morning after Halloween- which he gladly accepted! Yay!

I had to get up at 5:45 to get LJ ready for his flight! LJ was so SO EXCITED to be going on a plane, to El Paso, and with Uncle Joe! Although going to bed really late after Halloween, he woke up excited and happy! Joe came to pick him up, and they were on their way to the airport by 6:15 am!

They had a layover in Dallas, where they got breakfast and found a playground and toy store! Then they got on another flight to El Paso, and landed in time for lunch with Gigi! 

     

The Airsho just outside Capi and Gigi's hanger, so it was perfect!! LJ was a little worn down, but had a blast being there! Thanks so much for taking him and for the great time Gigi, Uncle Joe, and Capi!!

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

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...
