Silly Monkey!


Austin has learned to climb on the couch and now loves to stand up and jump!  He is such a silly monkey:)

Picnic Anyone?




We just bought Austin a picnic table for the backyard.  He already loves it.  We are trying to teach him he can sit on the bench and have a snack, but he usually prefers to climb on top of the table!  I can't wait for the weather to warm back up so we can begin picnic snacks and finger painting.  

A Trip to the Fort Worth Zoo





Last Saturday, March 7th, we decided to take Austin to the Fort Worth Zoo.  Though I had a really great time looking at the animals with my boys, I don't think I will go on the first pretty day of winter/spring ever again.  It was so busy!!!  They had two overflow lots full of people and we all arrived at the very same time.  It was so sad because we have been encouraging Austin to walk for a few months now and there were too many people to let him down and he really wanted to go!  We did however have fun seeing the giraffes, zebras, elephants, penguins, and other mystery animals.  Austin's favorite part was riding on top of the stroller and riding the carousel.  

No More Bottles!



When Austin turned 1 we started only giving him a bottle before bed.  I think it was more Mommy than Austin that thought this was still necessary, plus we still had formula left.  A little over a week ago we officially stopped the bottle!  It is so nice not to have to buy formula.  What an expense!  So here are a few pics of Austin helping us "unload" the last of the bottles.  I thought I might keep them for baby #2, but after inspecting them closer, I think baby #2 deserves better...hehehe!  Oh, by the way, I am not pregnant, but plan to be in a few years:)

Austin's First Haircut






Okay, so before Austin's birthday, well actually on January 30, the day before his party, Austin got his first haircut!  We tried to go to Cool Cuts located in Babies R Us but it was going to be an hour wait so we tried out Snip-Its.  My friend Lori recommended it to us.  The lady did such a good job and Austin was adorable!
