Kemah Boardwalk

Kevin has been super busy with work, but this morning I demanded that we all get in the car and go to Kemah for a few hours! :) So that is just what we did, and although Jack was at times a little bit grumpy (4 teefers coming in) we still had a pretty good morning! There is so much to do there....but we mainly walked around the boardwalk soaking in the gorgeous spring weather!




 We kept telling Jack to wave ...but this sweet boy gives kisses, ha! Such a ladies man!






 He was saying "baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" to the sheep

 We packed his swim diaper because I knew there would be a water area to run around in. Since we got there so early there were not that many kids there (perfect) but Jack wasn't having it. He wanted to be right next to his Daddy and was content just watching the other little boy :)
 Poor little guy has 4 teeth coming in, so he wants to be cuddled and held a lot, which is fine by me!! And yes I've already broken the no white before Easter rule, I couldn't take it any longer :)
.... but then we spotted a playground and that got him excited!


After all that running around we sat down for lunch with the perfect view for us...
 ...and the perfect view for Jack
 Look at all those catfish! Jack loved sharing his Cheerios :)
 We are back at home from a fun morning, Kevin is working, Jack is napping and I'm off to the gym. I love staying busy on the weekends!

Board Games

 Kev and I both come from families that love board games, so it gets me super excited to think of Candy Land, Chutes and Ladders, etc. Kevs mom got Jack the game Memory and while we are not quite there on flipping them over one at a time to find the pair, we are really good with flipping them all over and finding pairs that way. Here is a video of our smart boy in action. So fun!

Oh and at the end of the video is one of my favorite things he is doing right now..some how he learned to say "Cheeeeeeeeeeeese" when a camera is in front of him, I did not teach him this, so he must have learned this at school, but its hilarious and perfect since I always have the camera in his face!

Missing my boys!

 Ive been gone for two straight work weeks and I missed my little guy soooo much and Kev too! I got home late on Thursday and had to work Friday but I made sure I took off at 4 pm so that I could take Jack to the park for some quality time together. We just walked around, talked (he is talking so much more now!), laughed and just had some sweet time together. Having Jack and Kev to come home to makes my world complete!

Bracket Town - NCAA Final Four

The NCAA Final Four tournament is in Houston this year! So this afternoon we decided to head over to Bracket Town which was held at Millennium Park/ G.R Brown Convention center. It was paradise for little boys! Though Jack couldn't participate in all that was there, he still really enjoyed watching it all. We were there for over two hours letting Jack run around and explore, so fun!



 Nothing but net baby!

 Listen up, I've got lots to talk about!
 He grabbed this family's basketball and wouldn't let it go, ha
 This sweet boy was sharing the bean bags with Jack and trying to show him that he had to step behind the box to toss them in hole...
 ...however Jack thought standing that far away was silly, why not just go up to the hole and put them where they go!? Duh! ha



 Jack would NOT go near the Upper Deck Coach character, he just kept his eyes on him but at a far distance!
 I tried to go take a picture with him to tell Jack..look no big deal! But he still wasn't having it... so we moved on :)
 Moved on, to the really fun stuff, he LOVED watching all the big kids play sports.



 a random fan dressed as 3 Point Man, awesome! 


 I love finding places to take Jack on the weekend, and this was one of my favorite hands down! Just a neat experience for our entire family! Thank you to the NCAA for a awesome day!
