Grandma's helper
We had dinner at Grandma Sondra's last night. We had stuffed peppers with salad and spinach and then pumpkin pie for dessert. The babies got to have some pumpkin pie and they loved it. Porter attempted to help grandma load the dishwasher. He didn't even look up! He was so fixed on all those colors and the sounds the dishes made. By the way. Have I mentioned the kid is EVERYWHERE!
PS: Grandma and Grandpa Sakmary. You better clear out the house cause we're headed that way in July!

New digs
Last night we headed downtown to Jamiey and Julie's new condo. They just moved in last weekend. The place is great. We had shrimp quesadillas. They were delicious. Great job Julie. Julie and Jamiey are in the throws of planning an October wedding here in Austin.

Supper for us is just plain ol milk. But we got some of mom's Key Lime pie!



The goober family. Joe's shirts.



Stuffed.

Thanks for the great evening ya'll. Sorry for Porter getting spit up on your pillows. :)

Neiman Marcus
I took the kids out to the grand opening. It was such a beautiful day and we walked all around. The kids were, of course, very good the whole time. I swear I can take them ANYWHERE! As long as you have milk and some Cheerios, we are set to travel. We got to walk through the doors when Neiman's first opened. It was a treat to see all the pretty items they carry. They even have $900 face cream from Estee Lauder just in case you want to swing by and grab a couple of jars. :$




"When are the doors gonna swing wide?"



The kids by the crane

"Let's do lunch. I'll have my people call your people."



"Mom, I'm having a good time with you today."


And here's a few other things we thought were pretty.


Cupcakes @ Betsey Johnson - They were good!

Lunch with Grandma

Grandma Sondra took us to eat lunch on Wednesday. We ate at Junior's Grill in downtown Round Rock. great burgers. We enjoyed getting out and getting some sunshine on our faces. Thanks Grandma for a great afternoon.

Here Abigail is before we left. She's sitting up all by herself. Yay Abbey!

Kites!
Kitefest 2007
We packed up the kids, food, drinks, blankets and the jogger and headed to Zilker Park today for Kitefest. It was a little chilly at the beginning but it turned out to be a beautiful spring day.

Flashback Friday
