MY THREE SONS....LIVIN' IN TEXAS

Mr. Picasso Head

Do you see the deep meaning behind the Mr. Picasso Head I have created? I cannot explain it to you in words, you must feel it's meaning. That's all I have to say.

Climbing the toadstools

Hey Mom! Watch me, I can do it all by myself. Step one, climb on the smallest toadstool (that's what I call these stools.)




Step two, carefully reach for the next stool with your hand.




Step three, bring both hands together on the next stool. Then,......um......um......hey, wait, I am stuuuuuucccckkkk! Could I get a little help here please???



Now where was I, oh yeah step four, just get someone to hold your hands and help you take huge steps up the stools, then smile when you get to the tallest one like you did it yourself.

Hunting at the park

Alas, we find our prey basking in the sun, enjoying some time on the slide.

Primal instinct kicks in....suspiscious feelings arouse from deep down inside.


The hunter is spotted. Oh no! Now what???

Hey, wait a minute, he's friendly, I don't have to fear him.......or do I?


Nah, everything turned out just fine.





A Little Dirt Never Hurt



Here I am playing in my beach. At least that's what I call my sandbox. I have a great time, and I keep most of the sand in the box.


A trip to the zoo

With springlike temperatures, and sunny weather, what could be better than a trip to the zoo? Mommy took us to see all the animals, but I wonder, who was really looking at who? I think most of the animals came to check us out in our green stroller! Here are just a few of our favorites.

These fish were bigger than we were!

Monkey see, monkey do!!

Crocodiles go chomp, chomp, chomp!

Braeden loved "touching" this green frog.


The sea lions were fun to watch...they kept bouncing a ball to each other.


The Mearcats just kept watching us. They were funny!

These two baby cheetahs were having so much fun pouncing each other, Austin and Braeden were cracking up.

Wow! That is one big elephant!


This baby giraffe was born the same day of Austin's last trip to the zoo! It is neat to watch him grow.

More elephants!

Here is a closer picture of the baby giraffe.

At the Boat Show with Daddy

Daddy took us to the boat show to have some fun. We can't wait to go fishing on Daddy's boat with him.

Austin waving to Bradeden! Hi Braeden!!

Braeden pointing to Austin on the boat!

Rockin'


Just me....Rockin' out for my audience! No autographs, please.

Bouncy, bouncy, bouncy


Boing! Boing! Boing! Bouncing is so much fun!

Twice the splashing!

Rub a dub dub, two boys in a tub!





All grown up

Mommy and Daddy hit the holiday sales and found Austin a new mattress for his big boy bed. After helping Daddy build the new bed (notice they both have their own cordless drills), Austin has slept in his very own big boy bed and is doing great. Of course, Balloo and Quack Quack keep him lots of company!





Yuuuuuuummmmmmyyyyy!


One candy cane is simply not enough for a growing boy like me....I must have one for each hand.

Bed time


Brown bear, brown bear, what do you see? This is still one of Austin's favorite books, and now Braeden is learning to love it too. Mommy is really going to miss having Daddy home for bedtime, and so are the boys. The holidays have been such a treat having him home so much!

Nobody can read the story as good as Daddy can.


Choo Choo!

All aboard!!! This is the coolest train ever, and I am already an expert engineer. Chugga chugga....choo choo!



Psssst!


Psssst! Hey little brother, come here and let me tell you a secret.


With the Aunts




Aunt Lisa and Aunt Jennifer got some great snuggles from Braeden, and Lilly
(Aunt Lisa's doggie) made him crack up!

Christmas at Grandma's



Here I am exploring the internet with Evelyn and Claire. These girls have got it all figured out, and I am learnin' a thing or two from them about the computer.


Christmas Morning

Did you ever see the movie "A Christmas Story?"
That's all I am going to say.....







My very own guitar!


Look! Look! Look! Santa brought me my very own guitar. I am so happy!
