This weekend we headed to Dallas for our friend Ray's 30th birthday! It was a great weekend. We got to visit with my parents (they got to babysit), see lots of friends, and even managed to squeeze in a trip to the Dallas Aquarium. Hope everyone had a great Labor Day weekend.
My boys strolling through the Aquarium
the penguins greeted us at the door
Dad and Owen checking our some birds
the boys absolutely LOVED the otters. There were two of them wrestling in the water with a ball. The water level was perfect for the boys because the could watch them under water and then stand up real quick to see them jump out of the water. 
The sting ray tank was also a hit. I love when they crouch down. Why is this so cute?
There are these concave windows in one of the tanks, and I was trying to get a pic of Owen. Dad went around and stood in the tunnel behind Owen. I wish this pic had sound! Owen squealed when he saw dad in the tank!
Then we headed to the park with our Great Outdoors yummy sandwiches. I have to tell this funny story. There was a 4 or 5 year old little boys playing at the park. Owen starts walking toward him (I assume he want the ball) and Owen freezes, points, and grabs his hair. This is funny because the little boy had Owen's exact hair! Did Owen recognize the great hair?
This is from last week but I had to throw it in. I had brought the skillet over to the table to refill the boys plates. While we were clearing the dishes, Owen crawled up in the chair and finished off the rice. He can also climb in and out of his highchair by himself. Great!
We got our new nap mats from Nana this weekend. Didn't she do a great job!?!?
Daddy was showing Owen how it works
Daddy making sure the nap mat was safe for our first day of Mother's Day Out tomorrow!

How funny...we went to Dallas too and ALMOST went to the aquarium, but opted for the botanical gardens instead. How funny if we had run into each other. Looks like you guys had a lot of fun, so we'll have to squeeze it in next time!
And Christian and I are very jealous of your Great Outdoors sandwiches.
What sweet looking boys!! I love the mats- your mom is the best!
Great minds must think alike. Reid had to work for most of the day on Monday, but I had really wanted to take Travis to the aquarium that afternoon. We ended up not having enough time before it closed :(
And, we were at that same park on Monday morning. It's right around the corner from our house so we go all the time. Travis loves it.
Miss you guys - glad you had such a fun weekend!
