TEXAS

We left last Wednesday to head for Texas to visit Eddie's family and to see TCU play BYU in Cowboys Stadium.  We had a wonderful time filled with a trip to the Fort Worth Zoo, boot shopping, and lots of play time!

The boys both slept in pack n plays, which didn't go over very well-- Andy was up several hours each night (he just would NOT go back to sleep!), and Cal was up extremely early every morning.  The sleeping made things hard, but it was still fun. 

This was the first time Andy had flown and he did really well.  Cal has flown several times before, but this was his first time in his own seat, so he was big time! 

The only little "hiccup" on the flight out there was that both boys went number 2 within minutes of each other.  Andy pooped so I squeezed out past Cal and Eddie and took him to the bathroom and while I was changing him I thought "this is hard with a little kid; imagine if I had to change a big kid...".  I walked back down the aisle carrying Andy and Cal was standing in front of his seat and announced: "Mommy, I poopooed!!!!" Everyone around us thought this was funny, thankfully.... so then I walked back down the aisle, this time with the big boy to figure out how to change him.  We managed just fine, but it was certainly interesting!

playing in the dog's crate with Eddie's sister, Tricia, who came in from LA.  Cal thought the crate was the greatest thing ever-- he would take his cars in there and play away!

 (the rest of these are all out of order, and I don't have the patience to rearrange them.  Call me lazy)
