Lately...

I have been a very bad blogger! I can't believe it has been almost a full month since my last post. You would think it is because we have just been so busy that I haven't had time to sit down and write, but that hasn't been the case...just lazy! Robert on the other hand, has been much more busy with work. The past two weeks have been especially long for him, but he is on the downhill for the month and we are anxiously awaiting next week when we make our first trip back to Fort Worth since moving to Houston. To say that we are excited is an understatement!

Mommy and Davis have had a lot of fun just being at home together. We try to get out of the house at least once a day to give us both some fresh air and a change of scenery. Last week we met a new mommy and baby that live in Houston. We are finding new friends through old friends and that is helping us feel more at home. We tried to meet up to go on a walk last week, but it was pouring rain so we met at her house so the moms could get to know each other and the baby boys could play. Her baby boy is 6 months, so it's a great new friend to have.

Robert had one day off of work last Friday, so we decided to take a family trip to the Houston Downtown Aquarium. Davis absolutely loves going to aquariums! The lighting is soft and shades of blue and the bright lights and bright fish in the tanks are very attractive to him. He is memorized by the fish swimming back and forth. It is very cute to watch him watch the fish and try to talk to them as they swim by.

Tonight, Robert and I are going on our first date night without the baby since we moved to Houston a little over three months ago. While I am very excited to get some alone time with my sweet husband, I am nervous to leave Davis for the first time in a new city with someone other than family...of course I trust our sweet friend that we are leaving him with, but it doesn't stop me from worrying about my baby boy. This is a feeling that I'm sure I will continue to have for years to come.

Like I mentioned earlier, we are going back to Fort Worth next week. I am flying for the first time with Davis, and will be making the trip by myself. I am a little nervous about how he will do on the flight, but hope that he will be a pro! We are very happy to be able to see our family and friends that we miss so much. Next Sunday while we are in Fort Worth, we will be having Davis's baby dedication at Broadway. It will be a very special weekend and we are counting down the days!

Here are some pictures from our trip to the aquarium last Friday.
