Splish Splash

for fathers day weekend we braved I-45 on a Friday and headed north to dallas. trey was a rockstar. he slept the entire way...WHEW. I never knew packing for one child for one weekend could involve so much STUFF. Before i had a kid i thought two hands was plenty: now i wish i had eight....think of all we moms could accomplish with 8 hands. we had the car loaded: the bobby, the sound machines (yes, plural,he needs 2), the loud fan, the bumbo, clothes, diapers, bottles, pacifiers, swimgear, sunscreen, the cozy floor mat,the sling, baby bjorn, the snap n go, the nap nanny....hmmm and then we loaded our STUFF...michael's bike, helmet etc....i am always grateful for maria who is here to care for trey while i do all this....

Note to Trey: i hope by the time you are ready for summer camp you can trim down your "high maintenance" list of needs: however, if you turn out to have more of mommy's personality then i better get you the large duffel bag......


it was a special weekend because trey got to meet his great grandparents, his cousin Ella, uncle michael and aunt deena all for the very first time! my sister, ashley, michael's parents: yaya and pop pop were also part of our "party"!
trey got into the pool and we even put him under water(we caught that on video!) i was a water baby and i hope trey enjoys it as well. we are starting a "mommy and baby" swimming class at the houstonian this summer. should be alot of fun. below are some snapshots of our little "fish"!
ps: i don't know why there is such a large space between my text and the photos: however, i'm not "type A" enough to fix it! just scroll down.......























































































trey is getting alot of help from his cousin Ella...she is going to be a great big sister and a super duper helper for her mom!
