Texas Trip 2009

Wow, we had a GREAT trip to visit my dad and Christy in Texas this past week. It was a LONG drive (2 FULL days in the car, both ways), but Caleb did so well, we were so happy. We stopped in Little Rock, AK on the way down, and got to my dad's house on Sunday night. We had so much fun just relaxing out by my dad's pool--it wasn't quite warm enough to swim in the actual pool, but we swam in that hot tub every single day. You could adjust the temp so it would be just right. My friend Kristy lent us this great "mommy and me" float that we used. We also went to the Houston Zoo one day, ate at a lot of yummy restaurants (gotta start eating good again tomorrow!), visited with friends, went to lots of different parks, and spent time with family. We love the town where my dad lives-it's called The Woodlands. It is so family friendly, clean, well planned out, and only a 30 or so minute drive into Houston. The weather was in the low 80s all week, which was perfect. Some milestones this week-Caleb started eating finger foods like small pieces of strawberries, cheese, etc. AND his very first tooth broke through!! It was a scream-filled evening, but we got through it. He's such a big boy!! We were sad to leave, but happy to see our doggies again when we got home. Enjoy the pics!
