Playing with Grandma and Grandpa

Last Saturday we spent the afternoon wth Shane's Family to celebrate his cousins birthday. The kids thought is was so much fun to be in a house where the cabinet drawers and doors open and there are all sorts of cool things in reach.

Mommy's Day Out

For the first time since they were born just the three of them and I went out. We went grocery shopping and then to McDonald's. It was really nice.

State Fair of Texas

We went to the State Fair of Texas a few weeks ago and had a blast. The kids had their first corny dog, some turkey leg and cotton candy and boy did they love it. We got there about 11 am and stayed until about 6pm. It made for a long day but what an experience.

Here are the kids meeting Maya and Miguel, characters off of PBS. They were not too shy, infact Hayla and Clayton walked right up to them and wanted to sit in their laps. Dylan was a little more apprehensive.

Then they got to sit in Cliffords big red bowl. They thought that was neat.

Here we are at the petting zoo. They wanted to pet all the animals and feed as many as they could. We had to drag them out.

We had a lot of fun and even though the kids were exhausted by the time we left we were glad we went.

Clayton's New Glasses

Clayton got his glasses this week and amazingly enough he has worn them without a problem. He puts them on in the morning and the only time he takes them off is when they need to be cleaned. We think he looks too cute in them. And thankfully the other two haven't paid too much attention to them.

Our First Trip To The Park

Shane had his 10 year class reunion last Friday and Saturday. We went to the homecoming game and the babies ran around the grass and danced to the band. We wore Grandma and Grandpa out. Then on Saturday there was a family picnic at the park. The babies loved it.

The boys liked going down the slide, Hayla wasn't quite sure.

Hayla and Rippley

This is my Aunt's Cat it comes over from her house to visit and Hayla has just taken to him. She will follow him around the yard and love on him and he begs for it.

Hunting with Daddy

Shane and I love to camp and we hadn't been since I was pregnant with the babies. So we decided to take the babies to the deer lease a few weekends ago and see how it went. It was very interesting. The babies didn't understand why they couldn't just run where ever they wanted. But overall they did very well.

Here we are in front of our trailer. The babies had a sandbox and lots of toys to play with here on the deck.

Bathing three in a tiny travel trailer bathroom is quite difficult. I sat on the toilet and bathed them then passed them off to my mom who dressed them and let them play on the bed until we were ready to put them in the pack and plays for bed.


There Aunt Anna taught them how to throw rocks. What fun!!!



I don't know if you remember or not but in one of my last post I mentioned that the babies were learning animal sounds. They all know what sound a cow makes. Well they think that a dove says boom boom, thanks to Daddy.
