We're back

Well, we've been back is more like it. We got back into Houston on Monday after finally getting power on Sunday (9 days without it). We had a nice visit with Grandma and Grandpa and then came home for a few days and stayed with Mom and Dad (they got power on Tuesday night). Then went to San Antonio (pre-planned vacation with M&D) from Saturday to Monday. That was a nice and relaxing trip - though I was excited to get back to normalcy.

Here are some pictures from our trip to San Antonio -

Carter eating a rib from Rudy's


Carter waiting to jump into the lazy river and float.


And Carter doing his favorite thing while we were there - climbing the stairs. I couldn't believe it. He has a sand beach, multiple pools, playgrounds, and a lazy river and he'd MUCH rather climb up and down the stone stairs and walk over the bridge more than anything else.


While going through these photos I also found some of a playdate he had with a couple friends earlier this month.

Here is Carter and Luke playing with Claire (6 months). They are both really into babies at the moment.


This one is of them poking at her belly button, they loved it. However, she didn't - wish I had a shot of that reaction!


Here are Awbrey, Carter, Luke, Caroline and Claire all on the island doing art. Well, Caroline (3 months now) and Claire just watched. FYI - Claire and Awbrey belong to my friend Joanna, and Luke and Caroline belong to my friend Julie.


Lastly, here are the three "big" kids having popsicles on the kitchen floor. I can't remember, but I'm pretty sure Luke put his down a little later and Carter gobbled it up. Thankfully I found some sugar free popsicles - Carter loves anything frozen and brightly colored :)

I'm dying laughing at the Carter's rib!!! On Friday, Gwyn leaned over on the island and started chewing on a hot dog!

LOVE the pictures, looks like you all had a great time in San Antonio and I know what you mean about the stairs... they never seems to be excited about what we think they will be!!! I love the pics of all the kids, I thought it was an older blog at first until I scrolled down and saw Luke - James loved seeing the pictures so he can check out what goes on at our playdates!!!!
