Sisters

Day Trip

Since last weekend was a 3 day weekend for the girls, we decided to head down to Laredo for the day. We left here in the morning and had lunch at a hotel by the bridge. We then met up with Steve's childhood friends. The girls took to all their girls quickly. There was also a lonesome boy cousin who was visiting.


Then we headed over to Steve's aunt and uncle's house. We haven't seen them since I was about 21 weeks pregnant with Grace. The girls took to them so fast. It didn't hurt that they were stuffing us with their homemade tortillas.


We got the girls ready for bed at their house and got back on the road to Corpus. The girls fell asleep quickly. Grace is getting to where she does not have to have a nap every day. Claire is getting to where she can go without a nap occasionally. This opens up so much time to be able to do more things.

Great Start to 2012

We could not think of a better way to start our new year than with friends in Austin. We had a great visit that included an adult only night on the town as well as ice skating the next morning.

I had just planned on Grace skating because the smallest size skate was 2 sizes bigger than Claire. Plus Steve wasn't skating for fear for falling and breaking something. But Claire was fit to be tied. She kept going to the area we had rented the skates wanting some. Steve couldn't stand it any longer and got her some too. Both girls LOVED it.
