Wordless Wednesday

On Tuesday, I babysat Ethan. We had fun! :-)












Happy Birthday, James!

This weekend we made a trip to Houston for a friend's wedding. We also celebrated James's birthday! 

When we arrived, we headed to the park. 




 Love these two!

On Friday morning, we relaxed by the pool. Andrew has started loving water, so we had a good time!





James and his cake 

 Wrong side, buddy!
 Happy Birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy Birthday, Sweet Daddy! Happy birthday to you!
 Someone is always getting the leftovers



 It was an unique weekend because Andrew started running fever Friday afternoon. He wasn't his normal happy go-lucky self. He was a good sport about the wedding. 




On Saturday, we took Andrew to a pediatrician. They ran a blood test and it was a virus. Nothing to be done but Tylenol and TLC. We left Andrew in Gigi's arms and headed to see The Lion King. It was awesome! Definitely my favorite. The costumes were unbelieveable! 

On Sunday we went to church with Nana and Grandpa. Afterwards, we went out to lunch. Nana gave Andrew a spoon to entertain himself. He loved it!!! Hot and Sour soup, anyone?

Mission: Surprise Daddy...

A SUCCESS! I don't know why but I LOVE to celebrate birthdays. Some say it is because I had ponies at my party... I love to surprise James for his birthday but I am AWFUL at it. He is so observant and notices the minute details. Last Monday, Andrew and I surprised him with lunch for his friends and him at work. Even a birthday cake! (Which I forgot to take a picture of!) I love this man and I love celebrating him!

 Our little guy has gotten handsy!
