Deep in the Heart of Texas


I have officially been to Texas now! And we went on airplanes to get there! We spent the holiday weekend in Texas visiting Uncle Marcus, Aunt Tracie and Saige. The weather was beautiful for our trip - we took outings to the park, played with lots of fun toys at Saige's house and visited the Children's Museum. From what I remember, Saige couldn't walk the last time I saw her so she was much more fun to play with this time. I actually had someone my size to talk to! Plus, she had lots of fun new toys to play with; the circus train was especially fun! I tried to show her how to slide and run around at the park, but I have to remember she is 5 months younger than me, and hasn't mastered running, climbing, and sliding as well as me yet. I hadn't been down a curly slide before now, and it was so much fun! I went on it over and over and over again. Once I got accustomed to the toddler exhibit at the museum, I had a blast! My favorite parts were bouncing on the bouncy donkey and climbing up and down the padded steps! Technically, I didn't climb down the steps, it was more like slide down on my butt!
In the evenings when we were done playing and seeing everybody, we stayed at a hotel where I had so much fun running over the bridge and looking at the fish in the water! We also got to see Mimi and Papa. Papa drove us around in a big van which every time we went somewhere I had to get used to it. The doors were so big! One of the days, we met Judy and Arne. They came a long way to visit with us and meet me for the first time. There were so many new things, including a big dog named Olive; I was sometimes overwhelmed, but for the most part I had a great time. We were certainly unprepared for the weather when we returned home. It was COLD! We have not gone outside most of the week, so Cora and I have to play with each other! Her new art easel is fun to use!
