Saturday's are Daddy Days

David has an early bed time and an early rise time. He is usually up at 5:00am. This is great for days we are both working, but on Saturday's it is no fun. Because Angie is the one that gets up through the night with David Greg happily spends his Saturday mornings with David. Angie gets up at 5:00 feeds David and hands him over to Greg for a couple of hours.
This morning when Angie headed down stairs at 7:00 she found David's first fort. David and Daddy built a fort together while Angie was sleeping. She tried to join the two boys inside, but a no girls allowed rule had been imposed. So, Angie and Bella pushed each other out of the way trying to see the boys inside through a small opening in the fort.
It was dark inside, but David seemed to enjoy his cozy new fort, which still happens to be up in our living room.

It was so dark that the bright flash made David blink at every picture snapped

After a morning nap we headed out to the Austin Children's Museum. Because David enjoyed it so much Monday with Angie we decided to try it again on our cold rainy family day. It was VERY crowded, but David was able to do more of the activities. Having two parents makes it much easier to play.

  1. What a wonderful day for y'all. David was really involved with all the activities. And I can't believe how well he is standing.

    It is nice to be able to have such a fun family day.
