A Trip.

We took a mini family vacation to San Antonio this past weekend. The munchkin fell in love with the butterflies at the zoo:
...... the drapes in the hotel room:




...... and her very first taste of red Icee:



I know she is too young and she won't remember these moments.


But we will.


And when she is gone with a family of her own, Jason and I will smile and remember how she pushed her dolly around the hotel room in her stroller and how she sat with ice cream covering her cheeks and mouth in that little ice cream shop on the RiverWalk.


And how we wished that that weekend, we could have frozen time for just a little bit longer. :)

Her Daddy.

Having a child does not a father make, it is everything that comes afterward. Thank you for being the kind of Daddy I never had but always dreamed of for my children. Thank you for always being patient and kind and unconditionally loving. Thank you for being the reason why a day that used to be dark and twisty is now all warm and fuzzy.

Thank you for being there for our daughter. She has so much in you and she doesn't even know it yet.

Thank you for being you. :)

Catch Up.

I feel like there is so much to catch up on and it feels a little impossible at this point! So to make it easier:

Check out our trip to the crawfish festival HERE.

Check out Addie's Birthday and Party HERE.

And for the biggest news, watch this!







Yes, Addie is WALKING! No we are not bribing her with vodka, I swear!

She is still getting the hang of it (with a few bumps and bruises to show for it) and I had to resist the urge to strap a pillow to her chest and put a helmet and knee pads on her. Poor thing got her mammas grace (or lack thereof!)

P.S. Please excuse my broke down appearance.
