Cate's first trip to the ZOO!

For my first Mother's Day, I just wanted a fun day with my 'lil family, so that's just what we did. We took Cate down to the Austin Zoo, and she/we had a great time!!



Love this face!


She LOVED her backpack carrier!








 One of her favorite attractions...the monkeys...



 She thought the peacocks were cool too=)

 Waving bye-bye

 Her next fave...the train ride...



 Her absolute fave...seeing the longhorns on the train ride...HOOK'EM

 Getting tired and ready to go home...
It was a perfect outing, we hope to take her to the San Antonio zoo soon...(but we may wait until the fall and it's cooler, it's not even summer and it was 95+ degrees!) It's AWESOME if you haven't been=)

Mother's Day weekend

Mothers day weekend was wonderful! It started off Friday, this mama went and "got my highlights back" (as my sister says, love it), a much needed haircut, AND a deep conditioning treatment! YES! I'm set for a while;)
Saturday Jojo and Grandpa Royce came up and we had lunch at the Oasis.





Cate and I took a nap while everyone else ran errands;), then my parents and sister came up to join us for, you guessed it, some fried fish!


It was Delish!


Bernie tried to sample...


No luck.
Cate stayed very entertained with all the grandparents;)








Love...











Ring around the rosies..








Pretty flowers from my mom...



Then Sunday morning I made delish blueberry pancakes, (the usual for a Sunday, we were going to brunch at Chez Zee, still on my to do, but some sweet girl decided to start a new nap schedule over the weekend, and we knew it would be crazy busy, so we will try thus wkn,) then received this perfect card from Matt...


SO perfect!


And what I'm SO looking forward to:


Ahhhhhh...

I wanted to have a fun family day for my first mother's day, and wanted to take Cate to the zoo! So that's what we did! It was so fun! Post on that to come soon;)

SO cute!

The other night we had our friends Jonah, Catherine and Wyatt over and fried some fish. It was DElish and SO fun to watch the kids play! Hopefully Wyatt will teach Cate some of his 20 words soon;)


Wyatt, that stuff on your plate looks yummy! Where's mine?!?


Here ya go Cate, I will share with you! (sorry sweet girl, no fried, crunchy stuff just yet...)

Playtime!















So cute! Come this August there will be one more tot trotting around when Wyatt's lil Sis makes her debut! So exciting!!
