As usual, Life has been happening around these parts and we're trying to squeeze in as much fun as we can! This family of 3 is putting down the computer/tablet/smartphone/camera a little more while it takes all this goodness in and awaits the 4th member for our life-long-hit-n-giggle (sorry for the golf reference)!
We took the metro-rail choo-choo downtown a week or so ago. It was just long enough that Cameron got the idea that we were on a train, but short enough that we arrived just as he started to get tired of it.
Looking at Austin life as the train slides by can be pretty interesting...
and Family selfies can entertain even the oldest kids!
We got off at the downtown stop and hit the convention center for our annual trip to the boat show.
After dancing between boats and playing hide and go seek around all the normal folks, we ventured to the platform and waited on our train home. I wish I would have gotten a better picture of this. Watching them walk back and forth looking for the train was pretty fun, but teaching Cameron not to walk off the ledge was a bit challenging.
The past week has been a roller-coaster of weather around here. While we had absolutely no winter last year, this year has been all over the place. We're on a second day of school closings, which means that Cameron gets to play the Mom/Dad work shuffle. We're both super lucky to be able to take him to work with us as needed, and thankfully he does really well (even though we know he'd much rather be at school playing with friends).
Now he knows a little bit of how we feel at the end of a long day though, working really does take the wind out of our sails some days.
It's crazy how we can go from freezing for a couple days to gorgeous for another two and then back down again. While we had the chance:
We cheered on friends in some crazy fitness competitions (Cameron is covering Nugget -- sorry),
Played outside as much as we possibly could when the weather was warm
And the latest report from Cameron's teacher.... a sighting of a first moment: HOLDING HANDS!!
We've decided that Cameron is a bit shy during this capture and (hopefully) isn't the one instigating it. Either way, we know where he gets this from. I'll let you be the judge on where the flirting begins in our Benton World...
