Labor Day 2011

We traveled to Wimberley this year for the Labor Day weekend. This was Pierce's first road trip and I was a little worried about the drive and the sleeping arrangements. Turns out I had nothing to worry about. He did great on the drive both up and back and he slept great. Michael slept in a crib in the room with me and Pierce slept in his back and play in the hall. Both boys slept great which hasn't always been the case when we've gone for a visit. Pierce slept from 9ish until 6:30 a.m. I had to get up twice to make sure he was okay. We had a great visit with my parents. Michael woke up both mornings and fed the deer with Grandma. On Saturday we took him to the Blue Hole. This is a natural swimming hole close to the house. I'm so sad that I didn't get any pictures, but I was afraid of my camera either getting wet or stolen since I knew we'd all be in the water together. Michael is a true fish in the water. With his life jacket on he was able to paddle around on his own. He loved it!

Michael found a dragon and thought it was funny to 'roar' at everyone with it.

Swinging on the horse yelling, 'heehaw!'.

Chasing, I mean feeding the deer.

Bumper

Pierce used his fancy bumper for a total of about two weeks before I decided to take it out of his crib. He continued to scoot closer and closer to the sides of his crib and I was worried about his face pressing up against the pad, so out it came. I haven't had the heart to actually pack it up and store it in the attic, so it's remained on the floor. Today I walked in and discovered Bella taking a little siesta in it. Glad someone is getting some use out of it!
