Don't tell my husband...
but I think I am in love with another man. A little handsome man whose smile makes me melt. I think it makes me love my husband even more, because without him it wouldn't be possible. Except when said husband tells me to put the baby down. Housework can wait cause little M sure isn't. He gets bigger and bigger and is doing more and more. He isn't rolling over, but I blame that on his spit up issues because we rarely lay him down. I am trying to get better at putting him down and taking his picture. I will have none of those second baby issues. Just don't ask to see his baby book or birth announcements!

A long day in La Porte
Mike and I are both from La Porte. Our jobs, when we were married, brought us to where we are now. I love where we live and the friends we have; but having our families "back home" means frequent trips to LP. We usually try and do both sets of grandparents in one day so we don't have to make the drive more than once. It just tends to make for a long day that we don't mind having. We had a great time visiting with Grammy, Poppy, Auntie Frita, Silly Sean, and little cousin Delaney. I think this is a great pic with my new camera. (Thanks grammy and poppy) I think C's favorite part is that she got to take home some of grammy's home made macaroni! 
Yesterday we even added a visit to my cousin's house to visit her family and new set of twins. I am glad C is madly in love with her brother, because I am sure she would of traded one boy for two girls! 
At Marmo and Daddo's house C did the usual dragging around of my parents. My parents recently built C and M a really cool tree house. (The one I always wanted growing up! TEE HEE) Hurricane Ike made it possible for my dad to redo his shed into the bigger version he has been wanting. He and C have spent their last few visits painting it with fairies, fancy clouds, and flowers. It even has a swing! C is going to be very sad when it comes time to put the lawnmower and other yard stuff inside! I wonder if it will have to be re-painted when M gets bigger and has a say?!? 
It was a long day, but a great visit.

2009's First Adventure...
the Boat Show!
Yesterday we met up with Mike's family for lunch and a trip to the boat show. Why drag the kiddos to see a bunch of boats you say?!? Because my kids seem to have fun no matter where they go. C was in and out of lots of boats, including some million dollar yachts. She also had a blast in the camper section of the show. She and Mike have decided to sell the house and move into a huge camper on the land my parents have next to their house. I have to admit that having a house that is paid off and a lot less clutter sounds really nice. But I need my space which is something that falls short in the camper deparetment. M loved to be snuglied or held and look around at everything. (I resolve to take more pictures of M when we are out on these adventures. That might mean I have to put him down every once and a while!!!) Even sweet cousin D had fun trying out M's snugli. In all I think we spent about 3 or more hours there. C fell asleep in the car and slept till morning she was so tuckered. Today we clean and get ready for our old routine of getting up early for school!
