Houston, Tx WE LOVE YOU!

SO. MUCH. FUN.


Yet again, we had a BLAST!


This time we stayed in Downtown Houston, thanks to Miranda and LeeAnn. We had a HUGE room with a full kitchen and we only had to pay $60 a night, with the friends and family discount. Amazing, I tell ya. We were right across the street of the Houston Police Department and it was just MASSIVE. Living in Austin my entire life, it's mind boggling that a single city's police could take up that much room! But it does!


We got in Friday night, set up the boys' travel cribs, ran to the store to grab some milk, gave them their "Dink of Milk" and then put them to bed. Jason and I stayed up and had fun playing dominoes. I got dominated. Bad. It wasn't even a close game!


Saturday morning we had a delicious breakfast at the hotel and then Miranda came over to visit with us. We left to check out the Children's Museum and The Health Museum which was so much fun! They are SO independent. When they are around other children, they are so at ease. They are completely different than they are when you guys come visit at our house. I'm sure you notice that they take a while to warm up and break away. Sometimes they just want to hang on us. At the museum, we walk in, set them down and they are OFF! They crawl into other parent's laps, they try to hug/push other children, steal toys, "talk," ect. They are extremely social children. Not dependent on us, whatsoever. I wonder what it is? The fact that there are so many little people their own age/height? All the cool new toys to explore? It's probably a combination of all of them.


After we let them play for a few hours, we adults wanted to check out the Grossolgy Exhibit at The Medical Museum. Talk about GROSS!!




We left on Sunday after we had lunch with Miranda and Bert. They took us to this cool little Grill called Texas Borders. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM They had DELICIOUS burgers! Oh YUM! Aiden absolutely LOVED his fries and impressed Bert with how many fries he could stuff in his mouth and not choke! He eats like his Mama. HAHAHAHA!

There is so much more to say but we've got a busy day today too. I'll write more later. Love you all!
