My Orientation To PeeWee School........

This morning mommy and daddy took me to my new school so I could learn my way around and meet my teachers. There is a big, round, fish tank right before you get to my class.



Our parents were asked to decorate name tags to wear on our first day so the teachers could get to know us. Mommy wrote my name and then daddy had to see how long it should be.....



Daddy decorated it with lots of shiny stickers in different shapes and sizes. I think I get my creativity from him!


There were lots of fun things to do in my classroom....


I especially liked to tumble over our circle time seats. I was just too busy playing to talk to my new teachers for long. Mommy and daddy said Mrs. Christi, Mrs.Kay and Mrs. Stepanie were very nice so I am sure I will like them too.....


Daddy and I wondered around checking out all the other classrooms and the cool indoor playground. I can't wait for the first day of school!

Going To Galveston........


Mommy's cousin, Jonathan was accepted into medical school at UTMB in Galveston. Today was his white coat ceremony in which he is initiated into medical school. We wanted to be there to take some pictures and visit with him for the day before his week of orientation continued. We had lunch at Chili's on the seawall. Mommy took a picture of daddy and I with the beach in the background.....


Daddy played ping pong with me at the fraternity house where he lived for 4 years......


We just had to get a picture of the boys in front of the door. It's funny how Jonathan is going to the same medical school as daddy and staying in the same fraternity house!


The furniture that mommy and daddy picked out for the house back when daddy lived here was still in the living room......


We parked at the frat house and walked to Levin hall for the ceremony......


I had my own seat and excitedly yelled "bring out Jonathan" over and over as we waited to see the class of 2013 enter the auditorium......


The white coat suited Jonathan well.....


When I began to get restless, mommy took me to the lobby where they had cake and punch for all the guests to enjoy!


Afterward, daddy and I took a picture in front of Old Red which is the famous anatomy lab on campus. You can check out more pictures from our trip at www.utmbgalveston.blogspot.com

Playtime At Isabella's

Today we met up with Ali, Mrs.Libby, Isabella, Aunt Jodi, Makenzie, Lexi and Hunter for lunch at Chick-fil-A. We played there for a while, then I busted my lip on the slide and mommy bought me an ice cream cone so I could have something cold on it. I have to say I did feel much better after wards. Mrs. Libby invited us to play at her house. I still had a little time before I was due for a nap, so we gladly accepted the invitation! Isabella had a great play room......



It was filled with toys, games, and colors...


I happend to like the ferris wheel....Hey, who says a boy can't play with my little pony things. I have to learn all about these girly things....After all, I will have a sister soon!


Isabella and Makenzie set up a nice pretend picnic for everyone to enjoy!


Excuse me..... I think I am getting a call!


Isabella let met ride her schwinn tricycle around the house. We all had a great time!

My Trip To Moody Gardens In Galveston.......

Mommy's cousin Michael and his family came to Houston to visit. We all decided it would be fun to take a trip to Moody Gardens in Galveston. The aquarium was inside one of the pyramids an I couldn't wait to get inside!

There were palm trees everywhere......

Tiffany and Brittany at the penguin exhibit....


I enjoyed watching them too! They can swim really fast and would come right up to the glass so we could see them......

I held a penguin egg....It was really big. Good thing I didn't drop it!


Mommy snapped a shot of Aunt Angela and Madalyn as the sand shark was swimming past....


I wanted nothing to do with the squids. While everyone else watched them swimming around, I would start to fuss if mommy pushed me close to the glass.....


Hunter and I did a little exploring of our own....


Preparing to dive with the sharks......


Waiting outside the dinosaur exhibit. I didn't like that they really moved and made noises...


I finally decided I did not want to go inside, so mommy and I went around to wait for everyone else at the exit.....


Here they come!


searching for fossils...


Lexi and I discussing our find...


Having a brush made things easier and I didn't like getting my hands dirty


Future archaeologists!


I slept for the whole hour and a half drive home. When I woke up mommy was driving through Chick-fil-A to get us ice cream and it had started to rain. Good thing we were so close to home. There was lots of thunder and lightning!



Watching the sting rays and other fish. The sting rays liked to lay against the glass and eventually scared me a little.....
