We spent the weekend in Austin & Waco and while we were there we swung by the Austin Children's museum. We've been there before, but it was still a fun outing.

I didn't know this, but apparently B knows how to draw a circle. This is him showing me how he does it:



This was a little house that showed you how to plug the negative and positive plugs into things to make things work, like doorbells and lights. B wasn't really grasping the concept of just looking at it:





Dave having a little too much fun with this exhibit that records you for a minute or so. (If you really want to see something funny, click on this pic to make it bigger. Hilarious.)



Me at 25 weeks into this pregnancy. (Is it just me or does it look like I'm carrying really high? I don't remember carrying that high with B.)




We got to hang out with William & Rebecca while we were in Austin, which was great for us - Rebecca is a GREAT cook. She made this pulled pork with this amazing bean salad, guacamole and really good ranch - I seriously ate twice as much as everybody else. Plus HEB has the greatest tortillas, ever. B was literally jumping off the walls at their place - he was close to being a terror. (I wonder who is turning two in 11 days? His behavior has been CRAZY lately.)He had a great time with his uncle William, as you can see in this picture:


He swung in this bag for close to 15 straight minutes - gave William a really good upper body work out! (By the way, thanks for dinner guys! Sorry I practically ate you out of house & home!)

Chelsea,
These are some really great pictures, they would make a really great collage.

Really enjoyed your visit.

I know you keep hearing this and you're probably tired of it, but you really do look cute. There's something about pregnant women, I think they look better than anybody else. We should get together sometime this week, maybe let the kids play or something. I realized the other day how long it's been since we've gotten together, and I'd really like to. Let me know if you have any free time!

Ooh. I love HEB tortillas! They seriously are the best. Ben became a tortilla snob in SA and had a hard time switching over to the super flat Mission tortillas. And yes, you do look like you're carrying high. Happy breathing!! :) (Ben was high and I couldn't breathe the last few weeks because he was taking up my lung space!)

Dave & Chels said...

just to make you check lol Happy V Day baby.

Yeah, our B's are close in age and don't worry, the tantrum phase IS just a PHASE :) From my experience, the best thing to do is ignore them during one. Unless you are in public and need to make a quick escape :) So, do you think you'll be coming to the 'couve this summer? It'd be great to try and meet up.

I haven't seen watcher in the woods, but And another that I haven't seen that has a creepy look is Split infinity, but I haven't seen that either.
ANd that wife was super crazy. You only see her like three times the whole movie but the build up is great!!!

Unknown said...

You do seem to be carrying high, but you are seriously so tiny too! Way cute. Your poor rib cage though! Hopefully she wont be a kicker all day and night.

Chels, B is so adorable! It is great being able to catch up on the haps without any effort. Man I miss TX and hangin' out. You have got to be the most adorable prego mama I've ever seen. I do remember that Brooks was super low the entire time compared to the girls. I'm excited that you'll have more fem genes to counter-act those of Jackson and B. She'll be beautiful!!!
