Who eats rutabaga?

I don't think I've ever seen a rutabaga. Who has?
Well baby is about that size. Weighing approx 1.5lbs.
Finally got my enchilada fix twice. So yummy!


Luckily Boyd has been making ranch from scratch so I can have it on demand as long as we have the ingredients in the house. Hooray for hubby!
I think nesting will be kicking in. I want to clean out things and start planning our 3rd and final nursery. Ikea will help with that.

She turned TWO in Austin!

Last week we were in Austin TX
Our friends the Richardson's graciously hosted us!
We explored the town with the kids and even went out 3 times without them. That's a record or something!
Here are the highlights:

At the children's museum downtown


Cooking in the wok like daddy does


In the BIG chair


Trains, trains, trains!


The big birthday girl! She is using full sentences all the time. She knows what she likes and what she doesn't. She refers to most of her clothes as "my pretty" and is very proud.
She sings a day long- my favorite.


She's keeping up with the big kids. She likes broccoli a lot right now and is still a good eater. She maybe weighs 20lbs. She is so sweet and asks where people she knows are at all the time.
She points out balloons, airplanes, big rigs and trash trucks- she does have an older brother after all. She wants laps and uppies all the time too. She can jump.


A visit to Pioneer Farm


Old tractors


Just a few animals to see


Old ranch houses with rocking chairs


Teepees


The train at the park downtown


Squeezable applesauce on the plane was a good idea!!!!
We would definitely go back again sometime.
We hope they come stay with us in Colorado too!!

22 weeks

Enjoying the ending weeks of the second trimester.
Starting to have some lower back pain- yuck.
Had a great name picked, and now there are a couple more I am liking. How to decide?

Angus, you are not quite 1 pound.


I want some chicken enchiladas. I don't want to make them. I tried some vegetarian ones today. Still crave the chicken ones. Soon.


Guess who photo bombed me??? Stinkers!
