This weekend was full of jumping. First at Little Gym and then at a birthday party for one of our friend's daughters. Harper was all over that bounce house, jumping around with the big kids like it was no big deal. The party had an awesome face painter (Harper ran away screaming "noooo" when we asked if she wanted her face painted) but she ...
Life
Our Weekend…
On Friday night, my sweet in-laws stayed at the house after Harper went to sleep so Kevin and I could have a date night. We had a gift card from H-E-B to check out their in-store restaurant, Table 57 Dining & Drinks at their new location on San Felipe. When we arrived, we checked out the menu and ordered some appetizers and entrees. ...
Hope & Faith
In April last year, two beautiful baby girls were born at the hospital where I work and since then, I have had the privilege to work with the Mata family to share their amazing and inspiring story. Their daughters were born sharing a chest wall, lungs, pericardial sac (the lining of the heart), diaphram, liver, intestines, colon and ...
Our Weekend…
Today's weekend update will be short and sweet. I've been working a ton (evenings, weekends) and I haven't had much time to devote to the blog. Things will be slowing down (a little bit), so I should be back to a regular blogging schedule soon. Saturday was a pretty laid-back day. It was rainy out and I worked on and off. We did our morning Little ...
Our Weekend…
Though this little one has teeth coming in like whoa right now, she was the absolute sweetest this weekend. We've been dealing with a lot of tantrums lately so it was nice to feel a little break from that. We like to pack our weekends with time outdoors, play dates with friends, eating out once or twice and other outings (kind of a weekend ...
Our Weekend…
How good was the half-time show with Katy Perry and Missy Elliot? Like about a hundred million others on the planet, we're watching the Super Bowl (and by watching, I really mean Kevin's watching and I'm watching the half-time show and the sad commercials). Is it just me, or are the commercials super tear-inducing this year? I wasn't prepared ...
Our Weekend…
Our Saturday started with an early AM play date with sweet little Cami, Amanda and Ben. The girls had a tea party, colored, ate way too many snacks and took turns drumming. We enjoyed donut holes, kolaches and so.much.coffee. Cami was wearing the most gorgeous headband made by her super-crafty mama (her blog has lots of great DIYs!) ...
Austin Retreat
Happy (almost) Friday! I've had a little bit of a crazy work week that also involved a quick trip to Austin for our annual team retreat, so I thought I'd share a few snaps. Though we had two cold and rainy days in Austin, the trip was productive and we even squeezed in a little fun, starting our day with a scavenger hunt via Watson ...
Our Weekend…
It was finally (after two weeks of cold, rainy and gloomy weather) warm and sunny this weekend and we took advantage of that and spent a ton of time outdoors. One major bonus of living in Houston is our mild winters. Enjoying time outdoors sans snowsuit in January is pretty awesome. Outside time + toddlers = happiness and nice long naps. There's ...
Our Weekend…
I got off of work early Friday, so it was nice to squeeze in some extra family time. Right now there are a lot of tea parties going on in this house, so that's where you'll usually find us playing. Harper has gone through a language explosion recently, so it has been even more fun to play because there's so much back-and-forth. She talks ...
