Will is about to be finished with his 4 month training in San Antonio! We can't wait for him to be home!! We took our last trip to San Antonio for Mother's Day weekend. My parents drove Weston and me out there to visit Will. My mom had never been out there, so we took my parents to the Alamo, the Riverwalk, and Tower of the Americas. On the way home, we stopped in Monroe, Louisiana, to visit the Fitzgeralds and the Goodes. After being away for a week and in the car for a total of more than 26 hours, there is no place like home. So good to be back!!

off the sardines!

Weston & Mommy at Sea World
During our most recent trip to San Antonio, we took Weston on several adventures. We went to a drive-thru safari where animals come up to your car to be fed. I fed an ostrich, and Will fed a zebra. It was so neat. Weston just loved looking at all the animals up close. We also took him to Sea World. He laughed at the sea lions during their show. He enjoyed watching Shamu splash the audience. It was really fun to see him look in amazement at all these new things. Weston also had his first taste of ice cream while in Texas. He loves ice cream just like his mom! Weston is crawling forward now! Will was so glad he got to see this firsthand. He occasionally tries to imitate words and it is so cute. I am having so much fun with him at this age.

My Child, the Bully?

About to go on a walk with Abby
& Noah. Somebody was tired!

Sweet little man Noah

We went to visit Abby in early April to see Noah. Abby thought it would be cute to put the boys together on the couch for a picture. Well, Weston immediately tried to eat Noah!!! I can't believe he did that. Abby described it as Weston "mauling" Noah. She also told me to tell Weston that Noah said he is ready for round two whenever Weston is! Don't worry, we had a long talk about bullying on the way home.

Maggie's Birthday Party!


I think she enjoyed her cupcake!!

Weston LOVED his Easter basket...wouldn't let go of it!



Weston fell over...but still held onto the basket!



I love those little knees!





He waved to all his friends when
we got to the party.

Then, chewed on the basket a while.

Emily & the birthday girl!

Weston attended his very first birthday party today. His friend Maggie Oxford is turning one. It was an Easter egg hunt, so Weston brought his basket...but we didn't come home with any eggs! The basket alone was good enough for him. All the kids were dressed in their sweet Easter outfits, including Weston, so I took a lot of pictures :) !

Visit with the Easter Bunny



I took Weston to the mall to meet the Easter Bunny a few weeks ago. He wasn't too impressed, but he cooperated nonetheless. I don't have my scanner up, so I just took a picture of the picture. Sorry, it is a little fuzzy & unclear.







When Will flew home last weekend, we got together with friends at the Mexican restaurant. Weston tried lemons and guacamole for the first time. He loved the lemons, but he wasn't a fan of guacamole! Weston had a great time playing with his daddy.

Hanging Out With My Cousin


With Mommy & Andrew in Andrew's Backyard

My cousin & me



We had tons of fun!





I am getting so big!




With my Grandy

In my Exersaucer

We just got back from seeing Uncle Brian, Aunt Marzelle, and my cousin Andrew in Jackson. Mimi bought Andrew & me matching outfits, so of course, Mommy had to take lots of pictures. Andrew played very nicely with me, and he shared his toys. Also this week, my mom put my Exersaucer together. I love playing in it! We've been going on lots of strolls in the neighborhood lately. I love being outside. I will be 8 months old tomorrow!
