The BEACH!!

Matt and I took the girls down to Galveston this past weekend. We stayed at the 'Surf Shack' (thanks Danny and Claudia), went to Moody Gardens Aquarium, saw Dora in 4D, and played at the beach. The girls had such a great time seeing the ocean for the first time and all the fish at the aquarium. Matt and I decided that vacations/getaways with kids are not so much restful breaks....still fun though and we loved seeing how excited Taylor was to see everything! (I forgot the nicer camera at the aquarium and it was dark and lots of glass everywhere so they had to be taken without the flash...so they are kind of blurry.)

Jordan is 8 months old, Labor Day Fun, and Gig'em Aggies!

We really didn't do much for Labor Day this year. It was nice to just be home and enjoy the wonderful weather we've had the last week or so. We played with cousins and watched the A&M football game! Matt and I will be going to a game in October...we can't wait!

Jordan is 6 months old :)

Oh my how time does fly! We are just getting busier and busier! Jordan is 6 months old now!! She is sitting up alone, rolling all over the place, getting up on all fours and rocking back and forth, eating veggies, interacting with us more, and as I type she is eating her toes! YUM! I love her more and more each day! She has been such a joy to have in our family! When Matt and I went to Miami we heard stories of Taylor even asking, "Where is baby Jordan?" (Jordan is going to go to kindergarten thinking her name is 'baby Jordan'.) So funny how Taylor really doesn't remember life without Jordan! So lucky to have them so close in age! I sure hope they grow up to be best friends...I know I was lucky to have a best friend in my sister!!

4th of July at Lake Cherokee

For the last few years we've spent 4th of July at Lake Cherokee with Gramma and Grampa! This year was no different! It is always great to see all the family that can come for the 4th! Taylor and Jordan both were great the entire trip! Jordan enjoyed all the attention she got being held and Taylor loved swimming, blowing bubbles, coloring pictures, going on boat rides, playing games, and building sand castles at the island.
