Beach Trip 2014

Other than the wonderful company and adorable babies, I would say our trip to the beach was a solid bust...it rained pretty much whole time and was cool & windy. Not ideal conditions for fun in the sun. We did get to swim for about 20 minutes and we visited the Texas State Aquarium which was pretty cool, Allison seemed to really enjoy all of the fish. We really need to work on animal sounds though, every fish makes the "ruff, ruff" sound like her puppy! It's totally cute though! 

We are so lucky we got to spend 2 whole days with Mr. Jameson and his sweet parents Ashley and Zach! 

This picture is so indicative of their relationship...Allison immediately threw down her pot and spoon just so she could race over and take Jameson's away from him. She's kind of mean. 

Next time we will definitely plan better in regards to travel time and length of stay so that we can spend less time being tired and more time hanging out! 

Aren't they just the cutest?! 

The dolphin exhibit was by far our favorite! A ceiling to floor glass wall that you could see everything makes for a great show! 

I LOVE this picture! I don't remember what she was pointing at but she looks like she's telling daddy something really important! 

Since we never were able to make it to the actual beach we stopped at this little side strip. It was definitely not a traditional beach but Charles still enjoyed picking up some shells. :p 

Even though it didn't go according to plan, we still had a great time just getting away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life! 

Our Weekend in Pictures

Another weekend has come and gone. Our little Allie-baba, as daddy is now calling her, will be 7 months old tomorrow. Where has the time gone? We had a relatively productive/relaxing weekend...it doesn't feel like it right now. I can barely keep my eyes open. Boo. Oh well...this kid is STILL rocking the push ups. She kills me...she's so adorable. Thankfully the rain passed before the weekend and we were able to get some much-needed vitamin D. Allie played with her princess ducky and daddy roasted coffee and me I just got to be with them. The only thing that could have made it even better was if Charles had been off.

Saturday night we had the pleasure of having our friends, Ashley, Zach, and this little stud-muffin Jameson come over for dinner and playdate. Isn't he the cutest? He's about 6 weeks older than Allison and boy what a difference those 6 weeks make. He is army crawling all over the place. I think I see a theme here...push ups and army crawling. A match made in heaven!

Sunday, since Daddy was working, Allison and I decided to hit up the corn-maze again. This time it was actually cool outside and felt like fall. Allison had her first experience on the 'cow train' and needless to say she loved it. She giggled a few times. Lots of snuggles, hugs and kisses from the whole family. 

Daddy got to come during his lunch/dinner break! It was awesome. We hate when daddy has to work but knows he does it so we can have the blessed life we do. Thanks daddy for all you do! :) We love you!  Of course Allison was passed out by the time he got there and slept the whole time. Sleepy baby. On a side note, Allison is a rock-star. After our dinner on Saturday, she went to bed at 7:30PM, slept till 5:30 to eat and was back asleep by 6:30AM and slept till 9:30. Sweet Baby Jesus sleeping in felt good. I don't think I've slept past 6:30AM-7AM since before she was born.  Suck it daylight savings.

Doesn't she look so cool in her sunglasses? I'm surprised she kept them on the whole time (like an hour). Again, rock star.

Couldn't resist adding another picture of this cute little man! Oh and how precious is that picture of Allison and her Grammy (my mom)? Too Cute for Words that's what!

We hope you all have a great week and adjust to the new time as quickly as we did! Happy Monday!
