Landon's Pre-Hair Cut Do

About to do one of his favorite things...throw me a kiss!

Having fun with his toys

The night we took Landon to get his hair cut I styled it into a mohawk. He seemed to like it and enjoyed looking at himself in the mirror. I will post some new hair cut pictures soon!

Family Fun Time at the Park


Landon saying "fish...glub, glub, glub" as he looks at the fish on Daddy's shirt!

Wood Ducks...there were tons out and their feathers are just so pretty!

Brian, Landon and I went to the park to feed the ducks, but we were also greeted by geese, squirrels, and black birds. Landon loves to do this, but he sometimes thinks he needs to eat the bread too. We take stale bread to feed to them which isn't technically bad for him but it can't taste that good I don't think. We then walked around and explored other parts of the park. It was a very nice outing on a beautiful day!

Weekend in Robstown

The boys favorite part of the weekend

Landon and I went to Robstown last weekend and met up with my mom, sister-in-law, aunts and cousins. This is a yearly tradition for us and we make fun memories together. We hit The Peddler Show each day and eat good food in the evening! We have matching shirts and called the event EST Fest even though we had 2 boys come along this time. Landon is for sure not invited back next year. Shopping is not his thing, so he will be hunting with his Daddy next year!

Our Little Trooper

Sporting a cool hospital gown and coloring

Just waking up from anesthesia

Surgery isn't too bad if it results in a tasty popsicle!

Landon had his adenoids removed and ear tubes put in on Thursday morning. He was so great about it...we were proud of our lil' guy. The liquid "cocktail" that was supposed to make him drowsy made him quite goofy, which made it easier to leave him because he was in his own happy world!! He did very well and came out of the anesthesia very groggy, but excited that he got to drink some juice! He would have been perfectly fine sleeping in the recovery room all morning. He was not quite himself most of the day, but by that evening he was ready to go!

Halloween Night



We hung out with our friends on Halloween night. Landon had a lot of fun playing with William and Sydney was such a great helper while we walked to a few houses Trick-or-Treating. He loved seeing all the dogs in the neighborhood more than anything else. Poor thing, still has not been given a piece of candy. What he doesn't know, won't hurt him, right?!?! We even saw Sarah Palin...she was looking for Joe the Plumber!

Fun Times in Dallas

Landon, Alex and Reaganne

Brian, Landon and I went to Dallas for the weekend to see Greg, Brian's best friend from high school, and his family. We had a great time and it was nice to watch the kids play and interact with each other. Their oldest daughter, Alex, was so great with Landon ...perfect Mommy Helper! Reaganne, their two year old, and Landon had a great time playing in the wagon, swinging and getting soaked with bubbles! They also have a precious little 6 week old son named Dylan. On Saturday, another one of Brian's friends from high school, Doug, and his family came over and it was nice to hang out, eat yummy fajitas and just relax! Sunday we went to Joe's Crab Shack which had a playground for the kiddos...that was fantastic!

San Antonio "BOO"tanical Gardens



Landon planting his pansie

One of Landon's obsessions is ducks...whatever has wings and a beak is a "duck" to him! So, he was really excited about feeding, petting and watching them.

Sunday, Landon and I went to the the BOOtanical Festival with our friends Jessica and Charli. They had several booths set up for the kids to do arts and crafts and they also had an area where you could plant a pansie. This was Landon's favorite since he got to play in dirt! There were also several educational stations too. This will be a must do event every October.

Weekend Highlights

We started off the weekend at our local fire station with Kinder Moms (one of my mom groups) and Landon could not have been more excited. He loved the big trucks! They let the little ones get in and look around and explore and he did not want to get out. The fireman that was helping out felt sorry for him because I took him out crying so he asked if he could put him back in...what a softy! Landon was all about that and hung out in the truck for a long while!

Go Spurs Go!
Brian, Landon and I had the opportunity to attend a Spurs game on Friday night! Our friends have season passes and they were going to be out of town, so they gave us their tickets for the game! Thanks Denise and Dan. We had an awesome time! It was so great seeing the game in person!


Saturday we went to a Fall Festival and Landon's favorite thing was the barrel train! He would have stayed on it ALL afternoon. The driver was very generous and gave extra long rides so that was a good thing!

"Mom, if you did not strap me in so tight I could honk this horn a little easier!"
