Mama and Papa's Visit

We had such a fun time with Mama and Papa when they came for a visit.  I love for them to come, but man, I hate to see them leave.  Our time together was jam-packed with ice cream cones, trips to the park, going on wagon rides, playing outside, and just having fun being together!  When they got here, our first order of business was to take Pearce to get an ice cream cone and go to the park....two of Pearce's favorite things!  This boy is so good with an ice cream cone!  






We took Mama with us to Gymboree so she could see what all Pearce gets to do there.  That was really fun!  After his nap, we went to the mall to get new shoes...and some new fall clothes for the little guy!  We couldn't go to the mall and not ride the train and carousel, though!






Pearce loves his Papa!  They had fun playing with his blocks and going on I don't know how many wagon rides around the neighborhood!   




Yesterday morning we ventured downtown to Zilker Park to go on the train there and play on the neat playground they have.  Well, the train was not operating because there was something wrong with the track, but we still had fun playing on the playground.  And what do you do when you are hot and sweaty from playing?  Well, you get an ice cream cone, of course!  Like I said, Pearce LOVES his ice cream cones!  And check out those cute new shoes!



The park was right by Austin's famous Barton Springs, so Mom and I said next time, we are going to bring our suits and go for a dip!  You can see the water where we were sitting...it's so pretty at Zilker Park!

While Mama cooked us dinner, Pearce decided he would make us some soup :)  I put Pearce's apron and hat on and put him in his learning tower.  I just put a bowl in the sink and gave him a spoon and mom kept adding ingredients to his bowl....pasta, lettuce, tomatoes....he went to town stirring that "soup!"  



Mama and Papa, we had so much fun with you!  Thank you for all of your help and for spoiling my baby boy!  Come back and see us soon.  We love you!!
