A couple of my recent favorites

We are truly  having an incredible time with the kids.  Yes, the days can seem endless at times but we are LEARNING how to appreciate every moment (well, almost every moment) and make the most of them all.  Time is going by so quickly and these stages are so precious.  I cannot say the house is spotless...most days it surely is not.  Nor can I say all of our clothes are neatly folded and put away.  However, I can say that we are blessed beyond our wildest dreams for all that we have, especially our babies!

At the car, just finishing ice cream and STILL HAPPY!

With the wonderful change in weather, we were anxious to give Sea World another try. It was great! We were able to get in a few shows before heading to the water park... and all our adventures were a success. YAY!!! Those season pass purchases weren't in vein after all.

Geaux Tigers!!!

"Touch Down!" (compliments of Uncle Aaron!!)

It's fun to play at the Y M C A

Just a few miles from home, a new YMCA opened their pool and splash park.  It is a great way to spend Indian summer weekend mornings without having to fight the Sea World crowds.  We all love it.

Mimi and Poppa and Scruffy, oh my

We were fortunate to be visited by Mimi, Poppa and Scruffy over the Labor Day weekend.  We had lots of fun playing together and exploring some of the hill country near San Antonio.  A great time was had by all.

Scruffy and Estelle are INSEPARABLE when they are together.  "Com-on Cruffy" is her mantra when he is around, and he loves it!!!

Estelle enjoying Poppa's LSU cap.

Thanks to Uncle Aaron, Estelle has made a game of finding obscure objects to fashion hats from.  And, now that she is tall enough to reach the wash-cloths from the kitchen drawer, they are the new pseudo-hats du jour.    As you can tell, even Scruffy was forced to take part.
