Galveston

I can't believe it's taken me this long to post about our trip! We had a great time and Jackson loved the water. Carter - not so much. He still had his cast on so we think maybe he was just hot and cranky in general. He wanted nothing to do with the sand or water so we ended up taking him back to my mom's apartment to take a nap while Jackson stayed at the beach with my aunt and uncle, Patsy and Allen. We spent 2 days at the beach (the second day it was just me and Jackson while Carter stayed home with my mom.) We hunted for hermit crabs and sea shells and played in the water for about 3 hours! Needless to say, both boys napped wonderfully while we were there.

We ate out every night which was a bit of a challenge with Carter. It seemed that as soon as we sat down he wanted up. We ate at Landry's, Rainforest Cafe, and Willie's. We went to Kemah Boardwalk and walked around and took a train ride and Jackson was able to ride a few other things. He had a blast. We also went to Moody Gardens and visited the Aquarium which both boys LOVED. It was so neat to see all of the underwater exhibits.

It was a very jam-packed weekend, but very fun as well. The weather was perfect although I could've done without the bazillion mosquitos.

Here are some pictures from our weekend.


















Also, Carter got his cast off on Wednesday and he is so much happier now. We have to leave it open and not cover it at all which is unfortunate because it looks pretty gross. I'll spare you the pics :-)

Another big event that we just had is the boys' Open House at their Mother's Day Out. Carter wasn't too fond of it so the first day should be very interesting. I think it'll take him a couple of weeks, but he'll be just fine once he settles into it.

Carter is talking soooo much, it's really amazing to me. There's not much he can't say. Just another reminder that he's growing up....way too fast :-(

Here's a few random pictures from the last few days.
