Graduation






Well D's sister is finally done with her Masters in Elementary Education! We are so proud of her and can't wait to hear all her stories of teaching kindergarten. We had a great time visiting with her, her boyfriend, his parents and our mom. Unfortunately our dad was not able to make it - had to go to England for work. But we taped the important parts and took pictures for him. Pierce could not make it through the whole ceremony, he was able to fall asleep in the coliseum with all the cheering and whistling. Going there, we took the bus. It was his first bus drive and he just loved it. He was held by his dad, facing everyone else behind him and was holding onto the bar just laughing and talking. The lady next to me was very entertained. We went to Chuy's the night before for dinner and to County Line after graduation. Aunt Desi showed Pierce how to feed turtles while we waited for our table at County Line. He enjoyed watching them! The weather was just wonderful for this event. Here are a few pictures to share with everyone! Congratulations again!

New Foods

Well Pierce has been introduced to a lot of new foods lately. Some of these include black beans, tortillas, rice, pasta, brisket, turkey, potatoes and bread. There are some of these he really really likes, and others that he just throws to the ground. During this weekend for D's sister's graduation and mother's day, Pierce has been to a restaurant every day. He did so good! It was a lot of fun to have him sitting at the table and eating with us. We have also noticed that he really is a people watcher.

Big Boy Car Seat


Well our little boy is growing up way too fast! We have gotten him a new car seat - a convertible one that will last him for awhile. He seems to like it - falls asleep pretty fast in it when he is tiered. We can't wait till we can turn him around to be forward facing. I think he will like riding in the car better that way. Now he has a comfy seat to ride in for our trip up to Dallas and to Nebraska.

Pierce and his blankie


Well Pierce has really taken a liking to his blankie. This blankie was given to us by our really good friends - The McDaniel's (actually made by our friend's mother). Just thought this picture was too cute to not post.

Playdates





Well as I have mentioned in prior posts, Pierce has many playdates he goes to. Here are a few pics from those playdates of him with his friends. The first picture is Pierce with Caroline - she is a few months older than Pierce. The next 2 are Pierce with Ty. Ty is also a few months older than Pierce. And the last picture is me with Pierce, Trevor and his mom. Trevor is about the same age as Pierce and does a army crawl too. All the babies are so precious!!!
