Great Wolf Lodge

The cousins are in town and little one is loving it.  Wish they were closer!  Sweet cheeks is quite the thrill seeker and loved the "big blue slide." We had a blast!

Great Job Fishy

Sweet cheeks finished swim class today and got a ribbon.  She was so proud of herself.  The ribbon went everywhere with her today and then ended up on the fridge.  She is up to 8 seconds swimming underwater by herself!

So with all the excitement she did not nap today until we went to go get diet lemonade and a chocolate chip cookie for a job well done.  She gobbled the cookie up in no time at all and immediately fell asleep ( It was 4:00 of course).  The cookie aftermath was messy to say the least. Is this a cookie coma!?!

La playa

Little bit and I went to go visit Papa and Gigi this past week and then took a minivaca while we were down there.  Just the girls, and it was a blast!  Although Papa and Daddy were missed of course.  We packed a lot in, in just a few short days.  Beach time, dolphin watching, pool time, a ferry ride, shopping and a visit to the Texas State Aquarium. 

I forgot how in your face the seagulls are.  They were maybe 2 feet away from your head.

I am pretty impressed with this pic....notice the goldfish in his mouth

Blue ice cream=blue tongue

Watching the ships come in and the dolphins splash around

A little pool time to rinse off all the salt

We loved the Texas State Aquarium! You are able to get really close to all the sea life.  I can't wait to go back.

This little guy took a liking to C.  I want one!!! It just melts my heart.  We could have sat in the underwater part of the tank for hours.  The view from the top of the tank was just as great.

Mama petting a sting ray.  These guys were a little fiesty as the big guy in the tank tried to jump his way out.

These tortugas were so graceful and sweet...I want one of these too!

We went to the USS Lexington as it was right next door and did a brief look around.  It amazes me every time I see it and just how HUGE the ships really are.

More pics and some videos to come...

Tea Party

We went to a tea party baby shower this weekend and C thought she was pretty cool in her jewels.  Not a huge hat fan though.  She did keep asking were the baby was.  Pretty cute!

Monkey Toes

She finally figured out how to open the gates upstairs.  Anything to get out of going to bed.  I have to admit I am fond of her technique.  I thought I was losing my mind every night when I shut the gates and somehow she ends up greeting us in our room in the morning.  Mystery solved.
