Texas Food and Wine Festival @ Salt Lick

Mom, John, Kassi, Corrie, Terri and I went to the 24th Annual Food and Wine Festival at Salt Lick on Sunday, April 19th. It was a lot of fun...lots of wine, beer, liquer, good food and T-shirts! (Maybe this will teach John to quit taking stupid pictures!)

Easter 2009

We did the Burnet/De Leon run for Easter this year. This was Kate's first Easter and Ethan has really gotten the whole egg hunting thing down. After having about 4 different Easter egg hunts this year (school, with Mema, De Leon and Aunt Sissy's house), he really began to get selective in the eggs he wanted. He would pick up the egg, shake it, open it, and if he liked what was inside he would take the goods and leave the opened egg on the ground. He reached a point and said, "I am just done," sat on the porch edge and watched everyone else finish hunting. Too cute and a lot of fun this year! Here are some pictures we took.

Jr Dillo 1 Mile Run

This weekend Ethan "ran" in his second Fun Run. I say "ran" because he was carried some, walked some and did a little running. Kate also was in attendance on the cold, windy day. She definitly had it easy...she slept the whole run! Despite the cold, wind and a hesitant 3 year old we had a lot of fun!

Something new

Went to a baby shower this weekend and met a girl that makes/sews some really awesome things. She made a really cute baby outfit (want her to make Kate's first birthday outfit), birp rags and purse! She also does home interior stuff; ie curtins, throw pillows...http://retrodition.blogspot.com/ or http://retrodition.etsy.com/

Check it out...very cool! She has a few things on her sites, but sounds like she mostly does custom things.

We may have found our thumb!

Kate has been really going after her fists and test driving many fingers. We are hoping she will latch on to some fingers and quit using the pacifier. Found her sucking her thumb in her carseat the other day. YEAH!!!

Kate's First Laugh

On Sunday, March 8th Kate had her first little laugh! Too cute. If you can get her to talking and smiling...start tickling her...she just might give you a little laugh.

Meet the Dogs

Here is a picture of Hailey and Lucy. Hailey is about 8 years old and Lucy is about 3 years old. Both are chocolate Labs and both are pretty good dogs
Bo took this picture from inside the house...have no idea what they are looking at. We thought it was pretty cool though.
