39 Weeks In, 39 weeks Out

Once upon a time, 39 weeks ago, I held a precious baby in my tummy.  Here we are 39 weeks later and Julian has changed every bit of our lives in the best way possible. We are so blessed to have him!

Hi Kiwi!

Best Buds

So I didn't realize that after downloading all those pictures of Julian and Sophia, there was a PRECIOUS video of the two sharing a moment.  It is too cute for words! See for yourself...

Just pictures!

We're Back!!!

YES, we are finally back to normal healthier times thanks to the good Lord! :)  After suffering a rough sickness, we finally plowed through and got back out into the real world and tried to enjoy ourselves these last couple of weeks.  Well, Julian was obviously the one having all the fun, but who wouldn't enjoy seeing their baby happy and healthy? That's all I ever ask for!

Round 1 - With all the rage and it being ranked the #1 Children's Museum in the US, we decided to pay the Houston Children's Museum a visit. My oh my, am I ever so glad we live nearby! Round 1 was such a success, we intend to go back for many more weekends to come.  We were so delighted to see Julian mesmerized by all the activities and toys offered in the tot area and how well he interacted with other babies.  :)

Ball pit provides hours of entertainment!

Round 2 - We couldn't help but have Sophie join us for round 2 of the Museum and with the much needed play date we offered to pick her up for a couple of hours on a Saturday and have the 2 of them enjoy each other's company.

 

Buddies 

I missed you!

 No need to share - there are plenty for the both of us!
