What else is new?

Oh, did we mention - we are now crawling all around the house? And pulling ourselves up into a standing position? Buzz has been doing that for a few months now, but Baby-Baby has finally graduated from rolling around on the floor! His first tentative steps can't be far behind...at least, the ones where he isn't being "walked" by Daddy holding him by his arms and swinging his feet to make it seem like he's walking...



Yes, the world has changed once again - now we have to Baby-Babyproof the house! Or at least everything up to 3 feet...

April Fun

April provided us with many wonderful adventures - lunch with Bo and Jorge at Fred's Cafe, made famous by "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives"; a cultural awakening at the Main Street Arts Festival, made more special by hanging out with some of Baby-Baby's young church friends (and their parents, of course); an Easter Egg hunt at the church that was more an Easter Egg "Sit and let Daddy go get me some plastic eggs"; a visit from some of Mommy's special friends; celebrating Easter week by hanging out in Aunt Melanie's new house; and finally coloring Easter Eggs...just about a week late. All in all, an exciting month!

Good friends at Fred's!

A chilly start to the Main Street Arts Festival

Mommy's helping me walk...
or practice my pull-ups...

The next generation!

Me and Mommy having a great time!

What, you aren't supposed to EAT these eggs???

Hey, anyone want to trade jelly beans for some Peeps???

The search for Miss Kitty continues...

Back off, old man! This box is MINE!

Togetherness

Happy Easter!

Checking out what the Easter Bunny left us...

A straw with Easter eggs? COOL!!!

Easter absolutely ROCKS!!!!

Behold the multi-tasking Daddy

This year, coloring Easter eggs is more of a spectator sport...
But NEXT year...tie-dyed infant!

Grandma Visit

The end of March and the beginning of April brought more than just "out like a lamb" and "April showers". We also had a visit from Buzz's mom! She got to spend lots of quality time with Baby-Baby, taking trips to the zoo and the botanical garden before our goodbye lunch at Sweet Tomatoes. There were lots of good memories created, lots of funny animals and pretty flowers, but most important - lots of hugs and kisses! Enough chit-chat...bring on the photos!

Me and Mommy ready for Zoo Fun!

Grandma teaching me all about giraffes...or water...
I'm not really sure, but I love hanging out with her!

Hey, how's it going? Seen the lion yet?

Oh, there he is! He was roaring quite a lot before his nap...

I just love the Outback exhibit!

My first encounter at the petting zoo...
The wild and untamed chicken!

Posing in the stagecoach at Texas Town!

The whole gang ready for the Botanical Gardens
(Two Grandmas - no waiting!)

These flowers are so pretty...can I eat some now?

Lunch at the Gardens - for an appetizer, I'll have my fist...

Two Grandmas and a pond

Such a pretty day!

I love the Japanese Garden!

Look at all the fish! I thought they'd be less friendly
since this is a Koi pond...get it? "Koi" - "coy"?

I've mastered the spoon, the rattle, and now - the STRAW!!

A group photo with world famous bluebonnets!

Goodbye, Grandma! Come back soon!
