Three months of activities

We've had lots of good times in the past three months, and the boys have done many new things.  We've had a birthday party (Michael), first teeth (Aiden), first time pulling up (Aiden), first flight (Aiden) and reading small words (Michael).

Before the 100 pics, here are some videos:

Played a trick on him!





Michael's actual birthday at the Children's Museum




I think he likes puzzles





Fresh picked strawberries







Going to the Houston rodeo





Hi Mom!


He likes to do some of his puzzles upside down for an extra challenge.

Tracing his name

Brothers playing together









Awwwww!






Aiden was freaked out by the cracking eggshell Easter tradition

Most of our trips to/from Zapata stop at Freer High School at the halfway point.  We've spent a lot of time there on the weekends.

Getting more comfortable standing

Michael helped me mow the entire front and back lawns

Crawfish Boil





Breaking it down at Lu's wedding

Michael was definitely in his comfort zone

First trip to the dinosaur museum!

He was terrified of this loud, moving dinosaur when we first walked in.  But before we left the museum he begged me to let him ride it -- and he did great!




Getting ready for Michael's first 1/2-mile run.  He made it in 10 minutes!



First kite flying


Charles and Amada had a long weekend in San Fran to see k's Choice and stayed with Lily and Andres.

Check out the tandem!  We biked all the way up to the bridge, across it, and into Sausilito for a great lunch on the water.

First time fishing!


We caught three little ones!

Visited Indy for Chris' surprise 40th bday party.  Michael had a blast at their farm, and wasn't scared to touch the fish or worms.
