We headed to Abilene on May 30th for Mason's graduation from Jim Ned High School and took the entire week off so we could spend a little more time with family and friends and take care of a few errands in Houston.
Here we are after graduation which was held in the High School Gymnasium. I saw one of my favorite teachers, Mrs. Whitehurst. She took this picture of us (Maylee, Uncle Steve, Mason, Me and Reese, Matt, Mom, Aunt Jamie and Grandma Ruth). Mason plans to attend Tarleton in the Fall.
We decided to get a hotel this time since we had so much stuff for baby Reese. Here she is enjoying tummy time on Saturday morning before we headed to Taco Bueno.
Mom, Maylee, Matt, Reese and I met Tammy for lunch at Bueno. Reese was a little fussy; you can see her pouty face. She seems to have started experiencing stranger danger and gets overwhelmed by too many people being around.
I wonder if Reese will love Bueno as much as we do! :)
After lunch, we went to visit Reese's Great Grandpa Jack and Grandma Norma.
On Saturday night, the whole family met over at Jamie's to celebrate Mason's graduation.
Here is Reese with her cousins Slaton and Lexi and her Aunt Alyssa.
More posing with Slaton, Aunt Ashley, Lexi and Mason.
On Sunday, we met my brother and his family for lunch at Lytle Land and Cattle.
Here is Reese with her Uncle Joe, cousins Tyler, Riley and Kyler and Aunt Angela.
Sitting pretty with Daddy.
Reese and Riley. We gave the boys their birthday cards and Riley (7 years old) asked if Reese had helped to pick out his card. He kept saying, tell Reese thank you for helping to pick out my card. Tyler is 13 and Kyler will be 13 in September.
Later that day, we hung out at Jamie's and Mason fed Reese her bottle.
On Monday, we headed back to Houston, but stopped in San Antonio to visit Megan and Mauro and Lucinda who just had their babies.
Here is Megan, Ella, Reese and me. Don't you love Ella's hair! Reese seems to be admiring her.
Matt and I cannot imagine Reese being that small, but she was. Wow, so much can change in 4 months!
Here we are with Isaac; Mauro and Lucinda's baby boy.
After a 12 hour day, we arrived back in Houston. We spent Tuesday and Wednesday playing with Reese and getting ready to head back to West Texas on Thursday.
Matt has been working with Reese to stand up and build those leg muscles.
Reese is still trying hard to turn over!
A sleepy girl.
On Thursday, we headed back to Abilene to visit some of my high school girlfriends and their new babies. We all got together at Kelly's house. My camera died after this picture, so I'll upload some more once the girls send them to me.
Here are Carson (Marca's baby girl), Josh (Terra's baby boy) and Reese. It's neat they were born so close together.
On Friday, we headed to San Angelo for Allen and Mesha's wedding. We got to visit Beverly and Darlene at Bill's office (where Matt and I met), our friend Jill who is due with baby girl Beth any day now and Jamie, Milo, Caroline and Hayden.We also went to lunch with Nolan and Wendy at Henry's.
We arrived back in Houston today around 4:30 and got unpacked and ready to head back to work tomorrow.
Reese can sit up better in her bumbo now.
We attempted cereal again, but she is still not too interested. I'll try again this weekend; giving her cereal before or in addition to her bottle.
