The Big Event!

Art didn't want to sit still during the Baptism. I felt like he was the loudest one in the church.

Ryan getting ready to be Baptized. No dunking here, just a little water over the forehead. 

Doing Some Heavy Lifting

We went to Papa and Gigi's house for dinner one night and Gigi got out the hand weights.  I think hers were 3 lbs and she gave Arthur the 1 pounders. She was grunting like she had a tough time and he would mimic her.  They also did a little workout.

Goofin' Around

We had plenty of playtime in San Antonio. 

Sharing the train with his cousin.

Uncle Alex is always creative and hid in the box to scare Art. He wasn't fazed and just laughed.

Arthur's shirt says, "Respect your Mother."

Destinos Rule!

What an adorable bunch...

Rowan, 2.5 years, Ryan, 8 months, Arthur, 18 months

They were able to get Rowan to kiss Ryan.  It looks like Gigi is telling them not to be kissing cousins.

He Loves Construction Equipment

Next to the hotel in San Antonio, there was some heavy lifting going on.  Stopped to look at it and he wouldn't budge until I picked him up. 

This is the face he makes when he sees a plane, helicopter, digger, front end loader, you name it...

Next Stop, Dallas

Another old stomping ground, Dallas. Also, the birthplace of Lindsey. We stopped at Art's fairy Godmother's  parents' house in McKinney, Texas for a night.  It was nice to see them.  

Since my best friend lives in Texas still, I have been by the old house there. I'm probably in Texas once a year to visit!

Here are Gigi and Papa with the future grandparents of Green Bean!  My best friend is pregnant and due in April.  Here maiden name is Green and they don't know the sex of the baby so we just call the baby Green Bean. 

This is Where Gigi's Book Is Printed?

Last week, we had an adventure on our way to San Antonio for Art's cousin Ryan's Baptism. Our first stop was in Memphis where we saw Wimmer Publishers.  Gigi picked up some of her new tips books and we took a tour of the factory.  It was cool to see how a 4 color book printer works.  

We also drove by the old house in Germantown and hung out with some family friends for the evening.  I realized that I hadn't been back to Memphis since we moved 18 years ago!
