A Beautiful Weekend

Saturday at the Zoo

Saturday was such a gorgeous day and we made the most of it by going to the Fort Worth Zoo in the afternoon and Joe T. Garcias for lunch. We were so happy Christina, Barb and Hannah decided to go with us (Christina is one of my best friends since high school, Barb is her fabulous sister and Miss Hannah Victoria is Christina's 1-year-old daughter... what wonderful company!) We had a really good time. Lunch was so good (and so were the margaritas). Joe T. Garcias is so beautiful and sitting out on their patio always makes you feel like you're on vacation in Mexico. The day started great too with breakfast at The Original Pancake House and hamburgers on the grill a la Rhandi since she cooked for us when she and her boyfriend Jason came over to hang out in the evening. Needless to say we were worn out after such a long and wonderful day.


























































Sunday at home

After our busy day, Sunday was a day for staying at home. Emma had a little bit of a fever and wasn't quite herself so we stayed in and let her take her full naps at home. She was sweet and cuddly today and wanted her paci a little more than usual. She perked up a little in the evening and babbled a ton (Blake was convinced she was saying "Daddy" and kept excitedly telling Chris about it.) She's so excited about all of Emma's upcoming milestones. She also keeps trying to feel for teeth and swears they're coming in. She's such a good big sister and it's so sweet (of course, I'd rather her stop putting her fingers in Emma's mouth). Maybe she's right about the teeth. I can't feel anything, but that might explain today and she will be 7 months this week so it's about time already. Blake kept us on our toes today playing and sometimes I can't wait for the day when Emma can be a playmate for her (even though I know that will bring a whole new set of challenges.) They seem to adore each other so much and I'm just so happy they have each other.
