"Our" Day at the Museum

Recently, Andrew and I had the luxury of spending "our" day at the Mayborn Museum here in Waco. (Once again... another perk of living here...maybe I need to rethink my position on Waco?)

The Mayborn truly is a wonderful museum with tons of exhibits for adults but it has the most AMAZING discovery museum for kids. A lot of the pictures didn't turn out for other rooms we played in...but below are some fun samplings of our recent day at the Museum....

Andrew as a "cowboy" on a real saddle in the "Old West" area....





















Just like his Daddy, "cooking" breakfast for Mommy! My Sweetheart :) Luckily, modern day appliances have made cooking breakfast MUCH easier :)





























In the "Bubble Room"... such a cool place. The kids can put themselves in a bubble, make walls of bubbles and just go nutty with bubbles...


There is also a water table filled with rubber ducks, boats and slats. With this, kids can figure out how to work with and against water currents and pressure.. there's lots of fun stuff to do here! It's a great place where kids can spend hours!



















Easter 2010

Easter 2010 was kind of muggy/raingy but seemed to make for decent pictures. Andrew collected eggs before church and thought he hit the big time loot! (And we REALLY found out just how much he loves chocolate!!!)





















































































Movie Position

Andrew, you are a lover of film and chocolate...(I strongly suspect Auntie Mame had something to do with this ;0) )

Below is a picture of you in one of your many favorite movie watching positions...



















Next is what I would consider near heaven for you. You're in your movie position and have your Easter chocolate in reach. I guess for a 3 year old.. life doesn't get much better than this!! :)








My Guitar Hero

My sweet Andrew... you have always loved music. And instruments. And dancing. In fact, when Mommy was about 8 months pregnant with you - I went to see the Rockette's perform with Aunt Taboo, Aunt Diana and Ms. Sheri. And during the performances, you decided you wanted to "rock & roll" with them! You were EXTREMELY active that evening! :)

Sometimes I think you are even picturing yourself on stage in the middle of a huge rock concert. Recently you were shaking your "groove thang" and rocking out on the guitar that Uncle Jeff gave you for Christmas...










































I think here you were getting "down" and "groovy" :o)
















You always, always make me smile!!! I love you!!!

A Day at the Zoo...

The same weekend of the first Spring fishing - we also went to the Cameron Park Zoo. I'll admit - I am not the fondest person of Waco (I'd rather live somewhere with FOUR seasons! :) ) but we ARE Blessed to have such wonderful amenities within a few minutes drive and without the hassle of a bazillion others trying to get into the same place.


Cameron Park Zoo is really fabulous and we have all thoroughly enjoyed it... case in point...































Fishing with Daddy....

So this was a few weeks ago (March 13th or so...) It was our first pretty Spring weekend so we went down to the lake which we are Blessed to live so near to!

Andrew is very much like David in SOOOOO many ways... and one of those is a love for fishing...
