Bluebonnet Outing

First, some Sean updates. His weight steadily progresses - he is up to 12.1 lbs. He smiles all the time. He is now somewhat aware that his hands actually belong to him. He is making jittery attempts, sometimes successful, to target and grab things. He is probably going through a growth spurt right now - he has been awake for a total of 45 minutes today, not including eating!

Saturday night the Carters came over to visit. Their oldest tried to encourage Sean to dance while we all watched Florida advance to play Ohio State for the NCAA Basketball title.

The junior Pastas and Boyces, along with uncle Greg, picnicked at Washington on the Brazos on Sunday. This was once the site of the national capitol of the Republic of Texas.

We were out-and-about taking part in an annual Texas tradition - taking pictures of children buried in wildflowers. The initial picnic went fine, however the kids were tired by picture time.

Greg and Elissa play "Elissa tosses the football in any direction and watches Greg try to catch it."

Sean has little interest in his first bluebonnet picture - see all the pictures HERE.

The last straw - cute sibling picture is derailed by cranky, hot, children
