Playing at the Museum

Cassidy and I went to the children's museum a few weeks ago on a cold, wet day and she (we) had a lot of fun. She was a busy girl dancing with the fish, driving the bus, brushing some big teeth , checking out the airplane, playing the organ, and finding all the critters that live in the big oak tree.

Christmas portraits

These pictures went much better than her Santa pictures:)

Playing with peanuts

Who needs toys when you have packing peanuts and a box to play with...not Cassidy! She even managed to pull some Christmas decorations through her peanut maze.

 

Scary Santa!

I took Cassidy to get some pictures with Santa and it didn't go quite as well as it did last year. Poor Santa, he tried so hard. The only picture of her not crying was the one where I am holding her and you can see my arms. Oh well, we will try again next year if I haven't traumatized her too much!

Party time!

Cassidy helped her friend Scarlett celebrate her first birthday by playing hard at Gymboree. There were slides, balance beams, lots of balls, big and small, tunnels, bubbles, parachutes, rocking horses and of course, cake, but Cassidy had to stick with fruit...poor baby. Aside from the cake allergies, Cassidy had a great time.

Three Amigos!

Nonna bought camo outfits for Cassidy and her cousins, Grayson and Cameron. Grayson's shirt was different, but Cassidy and Cameron had shirts with ruffles to girl the camo up a bit...cute!

Uncle Dale

Cassidy has seen Grayson several times over the last year and a half, but has only seen her Uncle Dale and Aunt Pam once when she was three months old. So, she got reacquainted with her Uncle Dale while we were at the zoo and riding the train.

Kissing Cousins

Cassidy's cousin Grayson is in town for Thanksgiving with his parents and new baby sister, Cameron. After a trip to the zoo, Cassidy went to the Alamo for the very first time. I want to know if this is how the phrase "kissing cousins" came about?

A-Maize-ing Farm Fun

We went to Hondo yesterday to have some fun at the corn maize and farm they have there. Cassidy didn't know where to begin as there were a few of her favorite things there...tractors, animals and hay, oh my! We did go into the corn maize, and Cassidy had a lot of fun navigating the trails, but we had to take a short cut out because we would have been in there all day if it had been up to her:)

Hail to the Chief...

Cassidy was mere inches from the President and Texan, George W. Bush last night. He was in town and attended a private event at a home on our street. The Presidential motorcade drove right past our home on their way out. Cassidy being that sick wasn't that impressed, but come on, how often does the President of the United States drive right past your front door.
