A Fun Weekend With Family

Thursday afternoon we decided last minute to pack up and make a trip down to Houston to visit Brent's mom (Madison's Nama).  Madison did great in the car; sleeping the whole way there and back.  Although, she was not her normal cheerful self the whole weekend. There were a few meltdowns- I'm thinking it was an upset stomach, because we had an explosive bath incident.  The joys of motherhood.  However I'm also thinking some of the fussiness was being out of her routine.  This baby loves her schedule especially when it comes to nap time and bed time.  We did a lot of running around in Houston and I think this messed her up.

I just love these tootsies.

Bella decided to become a cat over the weekend.

She slept under the bed all weekend.  She is a little weird some days.



I just love this new onesie from Gap.



Madison has developed a new love for her blankets, especially her pink loveee her Mimi made her.  She will just bring them up to her face and attempt to suck on them or rub them.

Monday morning we said goodbye to Nama and headed back home.  We had such a great time visiting and it always goes by so quickly.  In fact we had planned to leave Sunday afternoon, but extended it one more night because everyone was having a great time.

Once back in Dallas we headed over to my parent's house to celebrate the fourth.  This may have been a little over kill for baby girl, because she lost it.  I finally put her down to sleep in my parent's bed and there she stayed until we left.  We had planned to go to the fireworks but after this we knew it was best to skip this year.  I was feeling a little guilty that she was not feeling well.

Have you ever played SceneIt?  Well this game is loved by my family but it has been known to cause some major fights so we quit playing it for a few years.  I'm happy to say we brought it back and it was a peaceful evening.  I really enjoy this time with my family.  Being the oldest of the kids its getting harder to see everyone getting older as well.  I'm not ready for the day to come that we are not all in the same city and hanging out.

I hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July weekend!
