California Girls

We are back at home and glad to be in cooler weather! Even so, the warm Cali temps keep this pregnant momma in the shade, in the pool, or indoors with the A/c blowing. Here are the rest of our pics from our time in Texas!



This little stroller is her new favorite toy at Target. She pushed it around the whole store. Just getting ready to help with Jenna Grace!



Anna Kate loved that spray park! Wish we had one here!



Eating bbq at Rudy's in Waco and enjoying a little of Baylor campus.



Enjoying her free Slurpee from 7-11 on July 11. By the way, this is the first and only ponytail she has left in her hair for longer than 30 seconds!



Anna Kate was a trooper with all our time spent in the car...



and in her pack n play...



but it was not always all smiles!



Grandpa helping her eat raisins...her new favorite food.



Our last night in Austin eating dinner at Cheddar's (yum!). Enjoying double fisting her french fries (don't tell Daddy!) and time with GranJan and Grandpa. We had so much fun and can't wait to see you again soon...next time with Jenna!

What a fun time we had getting to see all these friends and family!

Dancing Diva

My gal loves to dance! Give her some music and she is off. In the past few weeks we got to see a Beatles cover band as well as Shane Barnard and Bethany Dillon. What fun!

Our Days with GranJan and Grandpa

We have had such fun at GranJan and Grandpa's house! First we got to celebrate my birthday here and play with all sorts of new toys.



Anna Kate loves snacking away in her high chair.



Anna Kate loves bubbles and balloons! Grandpa blows bubbles with her outside.



Anna Kate enjoys relaxing on the floor, swimming outside, and hanging out with Mommy.



What else can a girl ask for? Only MORE!

Lone Star State Adventures

Anna Kate and I are visiting my family in Austin for a few weeks, so we are enjoying some time in the Lone Star State. We have gotten some time outside despite the intense heat. On one rainy day, we pulled the pool inside for a great new play area. We got to spend some time with my sisters and their husbands and some of my aunts and cousin as well. Anna Kate has gotten to experience lots of fun new places like a great kids pool and spray park. Next time we will bring her bathing suit :) We are also soaking up all the Texas food we can...my gal loves her queso!
