Family Vacation

Two posts in one day! What else am I going to do on vacation while Wesley naps? ;)

We took advantage of a great deal and came down to Acapulco for a long weekend. Wesley was so good on the flight and is having such a great time in the pools and with his new amigos mexicanos!


Having a snack at the airport


Watching busy travelers go by


First swim in the baby pool!


Happy boy


Whoops! Recovering from a slip and going under!


Going for a post-swim swing on the crazy bird swing


Watching the ocean from the balcony


Another day, another swim, more sunscreen in the eyes


Beach baby


Didn't last long on the beach - the sand was so gritty!


Anything in this coconut?


Nope - giving it a toss!


Swimming with Mama


I love my cups...and the cool fountains in the pool!


I pour water from the green to the red...


...and from the red to the green...and repeat again and again and again!


Back from the pool and ready for a nap


Awww...sleepy boy!

Visit from Grandmere and Grandpop and Trip to the Zoo

Grandmere and Grandpop came for a visit last weekend. They hadn't seen Wesley since Christmas and couldn't stand it any longer! We went to the zoo while they were here and enjoyed some beautiful weather.


Looking at the seals


Great family shot


With Grandmere and Grandpop and beautiful azaleas


Excited to see the elephants!


Elephants are Wesley's favorite


Look at that baby elephant!


With Daddy

It's Rodeo Time!

We spent this beautiful morning at the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo. We went last year too, but Wesley was much more interested in the animals this year!


Ready to go in his new cool sunglasses


Looking at a moo-cow with Mama


Another cow - this one is up close!


Petting a goat in the petting zoo


Petting a llama


Up close with the llama


Look at that baby kangaroo!


Greeting a goat with a big "Hey!"


Another big "Hey!" to this goat


Looking at the chickens 2006

Looking at the chickens 2007...notice any difference?


Pat the bunny


On Daddy's shoulders on the way to the car


About 10 minutes later on the way home...tired boy!

Yard Work

Wesley has been very busy getting the yard ready for Spring. Here are some pictures.


Lots of leaves to rake


More raking


Time to mow


Pbbbbbtt.....








Was that a bubble?

We also visited Wesley's new cousin Nolan this weekend. He is a big boy!


Who does my mama have?


Cheese!


Cousin Sadie and her cat


Three grandkids


Clean Froggie!

Finally!

It's been a while, but we have been very busy! We've had a trip to Arkansas, a trip to New Orleans for a Mardi Gras parade, and Valentine's Day!

We also had Wesley's 15-month weigh-in. He is 35" tall and 30 lbs 5 oz. He is >95th percentile on height and 95th percentile on weight. So, still proportional but still a big boy!


Wesley was a good boy on our flight to Arkansas


Wesley's new love - the broom! Sweep, sweep!


A new skill - drinking from a straw!


Sitting in his chair watching a little Baby Einstein


Pushing a stroller at Ashley's house....I guess that's ok!?!


A trip to the playground on a sunny February day!








Going down the slide!


Swinging


More swinging!


We went to New Orleans to visit Cousins Trevor and Katherine and to see a Mardi Gras parade. Here is Wesley having a snack before he fell asleep and missed the parade!
