Pretty Shoes

The other morning, Megan dug out my black heels, and came clicking into the kitchen to show me that she was wearing "Mama's pretty shoes!" She is growing so fast!

More fun in Houston!

Cousin Megan and Lauren - Checking out their Crawfish

Ok, I stole this photo from Erica. But I have been so bad about blogging lately (really mostly about taking pictures) that I had to take the opportunity.

This photo is of Megan and Lauren at Megan's cousins birthday party. Lauren turned 3 and Lily turned one, and the girls had a blast helping with the crawfish boil!

We had a lot of fun, and Megan has missed cousin Lauren terribly since then....

Happy birthday cousins!

Computer Whiz

We finally finished setting up Megan's "new" computer. It is our old one, with her keyboard and mouse. Chris set up a nice station for her in the living room with her little table. She absolutely loves it. More importantly, she can walk over there, turn on the monitor, start a program or game, and play the basic toddler game all by herself! She can click on things now and use the mouse as well as the keyboard basics. She also will go find a movie she wants, and go an put it into the DVD player in the computer. I am pretty impressed. I am, of course, her momma. But still.......

A day at the Dallas World Aquarium

We had a fun visit to the Dallas World Aquarium. Megan went with her friends Ella and Brenna (and Chris and I got to see Scott and Jana too!)










At the end, in the tunnel under the shark pond (where there are lots and lots of sharks) there was this one shark that wasn't swimming like the rest. He was just lo9unging on top of the tunnel glass and laid there the whole time. He was either lazy, or very cunning and plotting how to eat us all. I am not sure....

Back to biking

It's a BIG Donut

That was really the whole response that I got to my lemon pound cake.... But it was yummy!

KING King Crab

Megan loves crab.....

Fast Asleep

Megan fell fast asleep in her bean bag one night while we were cooking dinner. She wouldn't wake up to eat, and still wouldn't wake up to go to bed. We finally carried the bean bag to her room. She awoke briefly, and decided to sleep the night in the bean bag. I guess she slept great -- she was still snuggled in the next morning! I mean who really wants to fight all the battles...?

It's that time of year again

Chris found these and he and I found them comical (especially the first one)

Of course, as a house of two engineers working in a HUGE company (90,000+ worldwide), we have always found that Dilbert hit just a little too close to home!
