Lots of Catching up to do!!

It's been so long since I updated and I feel like we've done a lot in the past month.
Hunter's playgroup took advantage of Big Top Kidz a few weeks ago. With this strange January and February weather, we never know if it's going to be cold or warm. Hunter had a blast running from toy to toy and loved the jumping castle.

Chris and I took Hunter to the San Antonio Children's Museum a few weeks ago. After a major parking fiasco, we finally got inside and he had a great time. His favorite things to do were to watch the fish in the giant aquarium and to fly the airplane. This picture cracks me up of him trying to figure out how to milk a cow.

Downstairs at the Museum they had a "giant excavator" that was just Hunter's size.

On my birthday we headed out to the SA Stock Show and Rodeo and took in the grounds. We had a blast seeing the animals and eating. Hunter would walk back and forth bringing hay to the cows in the pen.

Ice Cream break at the rodeo.

Later that day, after absolutely NO NAP, we headed downtown to the Spaghetti Warehouse. I tried to think of someplace that we never had been to that would be a fun place for Hunter too. The atmosphere was fun and whimsical and loud enough for a 2 year old. By the time this picture was taken, we were ready to literally scarf down our meals and get out of there. It was bedtime for sure!!

It's been really a mild winter here in SA and so the other day, decked in an outfit from last summer, this is what I found my son doing... playing in the mud! He loved walking through the beds outside and had mud up to his waist once all was said and done. Oh well, I guess boys will be boys!

Our sweet friends invited us to their house the afternoon of Valentine's for a fun little get-together with the kids. Here's the best shot we could get of the six of them- quite an accomplishment when they range from a little over 2 years to 2 1/2 months old!

To cap off the excitement of the day, here's Hunter having a Valentine's dinner with mommy and daddy. Nothing says love like chicken wrapped in bacon with a side of rice and salad!
