Push Me Higher !!

We had a big time of first's at the Thomas household this past week. Houston had his first swing at the park on the big boy swing and I had my first night away from him this past weekend. Im not sure which one to be more proud of...the fact that my son was squealing with delight each time I tentatively pushed him higher and higher, or that I managed two nights away without one tear ! Now granted I did shed a few the day we left as I fed him lunch, thinking that I wouldnt feed him again until Sunday night or say his prayers with him that night, but all in all the weekend was a success with much needed alone time for mom and dad and a fun weekend with Mimi for the kids. A special thanks to my mom for taking such great care of our most precious kiddos while we were away. Truthfully though, I think she had the most fun of anyone !!

Not so pregnant anymore !

I figured it was finally time to post another entry since in my last one I was still pregnant. Not to offer excuses but it has taken me a while to find the time to sit down and figure out how all of this blogging works. I am going to try and be better about posting on a regular basis so my next entry isnt about Houston starting kindergarten.
We are all doing great, enjoying football season and life with a now 8 month old who keeps us laughing daily ( and as you can see is as much a longhorn fan as his daddy ) He said his first word about 2 weeks ago and I really thought it was going to be Hook 'Em but turns out it was da-da- da- da.... Kelsey had her first school dance last week- how time flies !I cant believe she is already old enough for dances- we visited the pumpkin patch this past weekend and had a good time letting Houston pick a pumpkin- hope everyone is doing great !!

Still pregnant !

We are still waiting for Houston to decide to make his appearance- if he's not here by Monday morning we are going to the hospital at 6:00 am to be induced.
