A Great Few Days

I have really enjoyed my "vacation" time the last few days catching up with old friends and hanging out with David. On Friday, David and I had lunch with an old friend and her little boy (who is a year older than David). She is expecting a little girl later this year and it was so great to see her and catch up. I really feel for her being pregnant in this ridiculous heat way that we are having here in Dallas (104 today). We then rushed home to meet Papa Bruce and Granny D who came down from OKC to visit the peanut. We had such a great visit with one exception-peanut refused the entire weekend to perform his "how big is David" trick. I will explain- for weeks we have been saying "how big is David?" and, in response, he raises his arms above his head,we say sooo big and then everyone claps. We were, of course, so excited to have him show off this newly acquired skill off as it is super cute. For some reason, peanut went on a "how big is David" strike this weekend. He didn't completely disappoint however - he showed off lots of other tricks (patty cake, clapping, waving, etc.) and was overall a great kid the whole weekend.




On Saturday, we went bowling to escape the heat:




On Sunday, we went to Isabel's home dedication and it was just amazing. We got to meet her family and friends, had some really amazing food, and were so honored to be part of the blessing of her home. And, as we suspected, everyone had heard lots about David and were more than happy to shower him with compliments and attention - which he just loved.



We wrapped today with a play date with Jenna and Will (who have previously made an appearance on the blog- Jenna and I use to work together and Will is 2 weeks older than David). The boys didn't really play "together", but they definitely played in the same proximity and occasionally interacted with each other. It was really cute. I am hoping that David picked up some crawling/walking tips from Will. Will is quite the impressive 10 month old little guy- he is already walking! I was so wrapped up in catching up with Jenna and playing with the boys that I forgot to get out the camera. So, no pictures this time..but I am sure there will be more play dates in the future.


Finally, Isabel's grandson, Junior, has been down the last few weeks to spend some time with his Grandma. He and David became good buds. David thought it was so great to have a "kiddo" around and Junior played non-stop with David. David is really going to miss him:
