Visit with Grandparents

Since Nathaniel was so sick the last time my parents were here, we decided to take a plane trip and visit them! Just Nathaniel and I took this little vacation, since Dad was working during the second-to-last shuttle mission. Thanks again to everyone - we had a great time!




Showing Aunt Hillary his hat.


The tractor going into the water -  I could see where this was headed.

Nathaniel was a little chilly after swimming in his pool one evening, so we put mom's socks on him to warm his legs. Silly!









He can even say "Hillary" now.

Feeding the ducks with grandparents.


Nathaniel had to sample the bread to make sure the ducks would enjoy it.



Wheee! I love sliding.

We stopped at the botanical gardens to see the flowers. This is where Aunt Hillary and Uncle Shelby were married.



Showing Uncle Shelby the "bus book."

He was sitting with granddad and eating cheerios. He also was interested in granddad's coffee. Sorry Nathaniel, you're too young for coffee. He can say "hot" now, so at least he understands what that means.


At the Amarillo zoo, gazing out at the bison.

Mooooooo!

You can't tell here, but he had his grandpa feeding him vanilla ice cream, and his grandma feeding him strawberry ice cream. Yum! The other pictures I took of this turned out blurry. But you can see the look on his face - priceless.

Water Slides and Popsicles

Headed down a huge slip-n-slide with dad. Not sure what to think at first, but as usual he enjoyed it.



Nathaniel and Samir in the ballpit.

They decided it was fun.



Levi at the bottom of the slide.

Going up the big waterslide with Daddy - for the first time.
He loved it, so they made many trips. :)

Enlarge this one to see his face going down.


Last but not least, the first popsicle . . . mmmmm.

In the Bucket

I purchased a $5 bucket at Target with the intent of using it to hold all of the toys. Instead, it was a toy - a very good one. So now it is dual-purpose. I am still getting some mileage out of it.


Peek-a-boo! One of his favorite games.


 




He got stuck behind here while I was doing laundry. He thought these were good toys also.




And climbed in here on his own. Why buy toys?
