The Dallas World Aquarium!

What a cool place that is! I think that Luke is still a bit too young for those kinds of activities but we had fun and enjoyed it. He was asleep in his carseat as soon as we left the parking lot!!!

Are you familiar with Stacy's story?

I find soooo much comfort in her words. Loved her new blog post.

Luke is 20 months old!

Luke, you bring so much joy to us!!! You are such a sweet kid!

Lately, you love doing puzzles. It's so fun to watch you focusing on the pieces and finding the right place for them all.

You've also had a ton of fun with a new toy (spiral tower) you received at your birthday that we just pulled out of the cabinet! It's always a good idea to save some cool stuff for later!

You can build some tall towers with your "megabloks" and can be very specific at times about only wanting to use single blocks or double blocks.

You love to go swimming and love to play at splash parks.

You love to run!!! So fun to watch you!

You still love books and The Wiggles.

You are a good eater and a great sleeper.

You are favoring your daddy a lot too and even cry when he has to leave for work or other things. You only want to spend time with him when he's home in the evenings.

Ben's last day here.

Pop go The Wiggles!

Our morning routine: milk and The Wiggles!!!
(Our furniture is still in Bedford!)


Video taken a few days before we moved:

Happy Birthday Ben!!!

What a great night we had! Dinner at Reata and drinks at Pete's piano bar. Love Fort Worth!!! (Ben's birthday is really on 07/06 but we couldn't celebrate until 07/07.)





Ben was wondering why I was taking so many pictures of him while eating ;-) He was trying Reata's calf fries in this picture. He said they tasted good!

Comme un poisson dans l'eau!

Fourth of July Celebration in Trophy Club!

We got together with a few friends to watch the fireworks at the Country Club. Luke had fun with the guys who let him "drink" beer and took him on rides with the golf cart. It was my first Independence Day celebration as an American Citizen!
