Baroid BBQ Pics

One of the things we did last weekend during our whirlwind trip to Houston was go to the annual Halliburton-Baroid BBQ Cookoff. So after Bill (Paw Paw) presented the awards, Mason ran on stage, grabbed the microphone and just started singing! It started with "I Gotta Feeling" and segued into "The Eyes of Texas." Needless to say our daughter does not contain a shy gene. So, here are some more pics from the BBQ including Mason's riveting performance.

Snow Day!

Well, in fine Texas form, it was 75 degrees on Sunday, and today it snowed. And not just a little, but a lot. Snow started coming down about 9:30 AM, and was off and on through about 6 PM. I got to pick the kids up early from school so we could come home and play in the snow. We made a sad, sad snowman, but had plenty of fun just playing!

It's My Heart!

I just want to say a very special thank you to all of our sweet family and friends that walked with us last Saturday as well as those that donated to It's My Heart. We were able to raise over $5,000 for this great cause, and I coouldn't be more overwhelmed by the love and support you all have shown Blake and my family. Thank you. Here are a few pics from the event.

This one's for you, Auntie

Don't ask me why, but Mason insisted on singing you the Baskin Robins ice cream cake song. So, here you go. Enjoy! Happy V day.

Blake's New Bed

It's official. No more cribs in this house! Blake is doing fantastic in his new bed (sleeping later than he ever did in a crib). Honestly, I think it is psychological; I think the hospital cribs made him feel like a prisoner and that someone was always going to come and poke and prod on him, and I don't think he ever forgot that association. Of course, that is in Dr. Galligan's professional opinion and all! ;) Anyway, since he's moved into his bed he's also started to ask us to go potty on the toilet, and we've had 3-4 successful attempts. I can't believe my babies are all grown up!

Happy Valentine's Day

This is for you Nonni, Poppi, Mimi, Paw Paw, and Memaw (Auntie, you have a special video all your own coming soon).

Ring Around the Rosy

Blake is totally into Ring Around the Rosy, and Mason humors him (even though secretly I think she likes it). Clearly, the best part is the falling down!

Shoulder Rides

Apparently Daddy's shoulders are big fun!
