Big Hunt



Here are pictures of Jon and the Antelope he got. He went hunting in Dalhart. This is the first big hunt he has been able to go on since the babies were born. It was a much needed trip for him. He had a great time. We will see how good Antelope is. I have never eaten it before. Jon is a pretty good cook so we will let you know.

Packing Oaxie



Today we are in a hurry to pack and leave for Bryan. We made last minute plans to go. Jon is leaving for a big hunt this weekend. The first one he has gone on since the babies were born. He is very excited. It is amazing all the things we used to do that we have had to give up for a while. So, we decided to leave too! This is the first time I have driven to Bryan with Bin and Oaxie by myself. Nana and MaMaw are going to meet us in Waco and drive back with us. They are going to babysit on Saturday while Grandaddy and I go to the A&M game. The first one I have been able to make this year. Oaxie and Bin wanted to be packed in their bags instead of their clothes.

Lunch Break





Daddy came home to see us for lunch. Oaxie stole Daddy's sunglasses. Of course she did not let Bin play with them. Bin and Oaxie have figured out that it is not fun to share with eachother! We are going to have to start working on that!

New Walker


We are not sure about this thing yet!


Sweet boy!

Hanging out at the shop

Bin's new Alligator gait trainer finally arrived last week and he's been doing pretty good with it. It is a little more difficult for him to maneuver around compared to his toy walker, but he'll get the hang of it soon. We have had to rearrange some of the furniture so he can get around better. It is big. Oaxie is having a blast too! Sometimes when Bin is not using it Oaxie will take off with it. She is dangerous!!! Daddy's new shop was the perfect place to walk but Bin and Oaxie preferred to play outside most of the time. Below is some video I shot at the shop. I just figured out how to put it on here!:) It is not that great but atleast everyone can see Bin walk! This was the first day with the Alligator and he already looks like he's been using this for a while! We are still having problems backing up, but he'll catch on quick. I wanted to put the video of him walking with his toy walker also since this is what he has been using for the past couple of months, and still prefers over the alligator. :)Next time I will remember not to talk on camera, I sound like such a hillbilly!

Good Morning




This is what I found when I went to bring Oaxie her morning milk. Still half asleep, she was sitting in a basket of toys watching Elmo.

We went to TaTa and Mikes house for a fun afternoon with our cousins Hank and Joe (the twins) and Oliver. They all came in for the weekend to visit. We had so much fun. We played in our new pool that has a slide on it. The slide was a real blast. Once we figured it out we went up and down, up and down, up and down! Nana and Grandaddy got us the pool when we went to see them a few weeks ago but we never got a chance to use it. So we are glad we finally did. After swimming daddy took everyone for rides on the four wheeler. Mommy was not for sure about letting us go but she finally gave in once Daddy promised her he would not go fast. TaTa put her helmet on me(Bin) because Mommy said my little head has been through so much she did not want to take any chances. BUT, it was a bit to heavy so I eventually got to take it off. We ate yummy food and got to take a bath in TaTa's fancy whirlpool bath tub that has neat colors that blink on and off under the water. The colors are supposed to be therapeutic but we just think they are really cool! We stayed up way past our bedtime, YEA! Once we got home we were out like lights!
Jon's twin brother Edward and his wife Ginny came to visit this weekend from Austin. Their son is Oliver who will turn 2 in September. Jon's sister Penny and her husband Chris have twins, Hank and Joe. They are 5 and start kindergarten this year. As you can see from the pictures above she is expecting a little girl in December. Yipeee! Another little girl so Oaxie will not be the only one on this side of the family!
