Hello everyone! Sorry I've been away for so long. I got behind and then got overwhelmed with how much I'd have to catch everyone up on. I'll give y'all a highlight reel - there's been a lot going on here lately. Lawson has changed so much in the last month or so....it's really amazing.


On a recent visit to Houston, we visited a cool fountain called the Water Wall. It's a wall of falling water. It created a lot of spray, which felt fabulous on that hot afternoon!

We also went to the Houston Museum of Natural Science - one of my favorite places. Ever. Lawson loved the butterfly exhibit!

Lawson also had his first trip to Freebirds. He loved it! He ate over half that burrito in front of him!

We spent last weekend at my friend, Jennie's, house and pool. We really loved splashing around in the water! Lawson is definitely a water baby.

The biggest news is that Lawson is WALKING! He started right about the 10 month mark with just a step or two and now he's motoring across the room like a pro. He looks a bit like a drunken sailor yet, but he's getting the hang of it. I'm so proud of my little guy!

He's so physical right now, he's not doing a lot of verbal stuff. He understands a lot of what we're saying, but he's not said any real words yet. He does, however, use the word "oh" constantly. It has many pitches, it varies in length and is used primarily when he's trying to figure something out. His face looks so cute when he says it:
