Kiddieland

Well, last night Angelo officially started his summer classes. Luckily, he will only have to actually go to class 2 nights a week, but even so, I have been very nervous about it. I just haven't quite figured out how to put two kids so bed yet. (if anyone has any advice I would definitely welcome it!) Anyway, Bianca saved the day by coming over and helping. Well, Tuesday night I took Jordan to dinner and we went to play putt-putt and this place called Lion's Park and I told her that we could come back on Wednesday so that her and Abby could ride the train at Kiddieland(which is also at Lion's Park). Thank goodness Bianca was there! I don't think I could have handled it without her. It was a lot of fun, but it was very hot! So, first they rode the train.





Then they wanted to ride the merry-go-round:

Then they wanted to ride this ride. I don't know what you call it, but it goes around pretty fast and the little spaceships(or whatever they are) go up and down. Jordan was the one who really wanted to ride it and then once it started she was scared! You can see this by the look on her face in these pictures!





So, in case you hadn't noticed, I was having to ride these rides with Abby and, by this time I was feeling a little sick so it was time to go. Then, on our way out, Abby spotted the little stationary rides you can pay 50cents to ride. I did not actually pay for her to ride them, but she had to get on ALL of them - and there were quite a few. When she got on the first one I kept telling her, "Okay, we have to go home" to which she replied, "I drive this home. Bye, bye mama! See you tomorrow!"




And, lastly, this is what Garner did the whole time:

So, I will throw in a couple of extra pictures of him!

Garner

Here are some pictures of Garner. They are actually about a week old. I realized just a minute ago that I am not taking enough pictures of him. He is so sweet! I just want to squeeze him! He smiles and coos a lot and it is so cute! He is a really good baby! Jordan helped me give him a bath tonight and last night. She is really being a good helper!





Oh, and here is one of Abby that was taken Memorial weekend. I just think it is funny!

A Good Weekend

We have had a great weekend so far. Yesterday - Saturday - Angelo, Abby, Garner, and I ventured to Conroe to see my Grandpa. I have to say that the car ride there was not great, but it was bearable. It was a good visit though. It was good to see my Grandma and Grandpa. And Abby seemed to have a good time. Unfortunately, we did not get a picture of her going crazy in their fountain! She was splashing up a storm! But we did get a few good pictures.





As you can see, we met my mom and Jordan up there. We brought Jordan back to Waco with us, also! She is going to be going to a camp up here that Bianca is teaching at. She has only been here one day, but it has been great having her so far! She is so well behaved and she is such a good helper. I try not to ask for her help too often because I don't want her to think that is why she is here, but with two little ones it is hard not to ask her to do some things. She always does them without resistance. She is so good to Abby and Abby loves her so much! She is good with Garner also. On the trip back from Conroe, she fed Garner and gave him his Mylicon drops for me. She kept him happy the whole trip! It was awesome! Anyway, earlier today we spent some time outside and here are some of the pictures!






Angelo brought out the radio and him and Abby danced a little. She thought it was so fun! She was cracking up!



I am going to try and post again later and put some pics of Garner up!

It's been a long time!

Okay, so I really intended to post pictures and things a lot more often than I have! What can I say? Life gets in the way, I guess! Anyway, I have a couple of minutes so I wanted to post some pictures. There is not much to report around here. Abby, Garner, and I are at my mom's this week. Abby is having a wonderful time playing with her cousins and she loves getting to see her Meemaw everyday! She does miss her Daddy, though! Garner, of course, has no idea what is going on - he just nurses all day and sleeps for 30 minutes at a time! He is such a cutie though! I can't believe he is already one month old! Before you know it he will be as big as Abby! She sure does love her brother, too! She is always rubbing his head andtelling him, "Don't cry Baby Garner, it's okay" and putting his "paci" in this mouth (even when he is sleeping!). When she hears him crying on the baby monitor she tells me, "Go get my brother out!" It is really cute! Anyway, I am going to go ahead and stop rambling because I have a lot of random pictures that I want to post.















P.S. I don't want to get into it, but you have no idea what I went through to get this posted!
