Lunch with Daddy

We had lunch with Jeff at school this week. Davis is sporting his I Love Daddy shirt.

Throw Me Something Mister

Davis had a special treat last week when he got to come with me on my annual Mardi Gras weekend in Baton Rouge.  This was my fifth Spanish Town Parade and it did not disappoint.  I have to admit that this year was a little more tame than recent years!  

The weekend also marked Davis' first plane ride.  I was very nervous but he did great. 

Here is Davis sporting his handmade Mardi Gras outfit! 

He also had a bag to collect his beads.

Love you Angie!

Shout out to Angie for being a wonderful hostess!  Davis can't wait to meet Baby Lanoux.

Leslie, mark your calendar for Mardi Gras 2010. We'll leave the kids with the boys and celebrate old times!

Taking San Antonio by Storm

Jeff attends an annual conference in San Antonio every February and this year Davis and I decided to tag along.  We drove which meant I didn't even try to narrow down the packing list!

Here's a sample portion of the packing list:
Diapers 
Wipes
10 outfits
4 pajamas
toys
burp rags
bibs
socks
2 blankets
towel
wash cloth
bumbo chair
play mat
pack and play
stroller
...you get the idea
This is just Davis' bags!

We left on Wednesday afternoon and thankfully we had a pretty uneventful drive. Davis slept most of the way.  We stayed at the Westin on the Riverwalk and Davis had a very positive reaction to the Heavenly Bed!  If only we would let him watch TV he would have been set.

While Daddy was at the conference Davis and I enjoyed the hotel room, played with our friends Britney and Eli (sadly I didn't get any pictures of Davis and Eli) and of course paid respects to the Alamo (Mammau, this picture is for you).


This was the longest trip Davis had taken in terms of distance and duration and all in all it was a success!

4 Months

Davis had his 4 month check up today!  Here are the stats:
Wt: 12 lbs (5%)
Ht: 25 1/2" (70%)
His doctor likened him to a piece of dry spaghetti...

My Baby

I'm starting to feel like Davis is growing and changing too fast!  Here are a few flash back pictures from 16 weeks ago.
Davis always had his hands around his face in sonogram pictures and those first few days he stayed true to form.  It looks like he's play peek-a-boo with us.

Davis and daddy getting some much needed sleep.  We were extremely sleep deprived already and we're still not caught up!

Such a sweet boy!
