Visiting family in Canada

Nathan and I have been in Montreal visiting family for almost 2 weeks now. We've had a great time meeting new people and seeing family. Here are a few pictures that my sister, Melanie, took of Nathan during her brief (3 day) holiday to come see us.

He's playing in an exersaucer we borrowed

some yummy corn on the cob!

Nathan loves Coca-Cola!


He's saying "I'm so cute!"

videos

Today has been a fairly eventful kind of day. Early this afternoon, Nathan stuck my finger in his mouth to chomp down on and there was a tooth. Yep, that's right, a tooth! How awesome! It also explains his horrible cranky day yesterday. Anyways, in celebration I'm going to share some videos that I took with my new video camera!

Okay... I've tried and tried and tried but I just can't get videos to upload right on here anymore. It might be that the videos are too big so I have to link you to youtube where I uploaded the vids.

That's all for now but I'll be updating again soon now that my computer no longer hates me :)

Jumperoo!

Nathan and his new best friend, his rainforest jumperoo. He loves to sit in it and jump up and down while it plays music, plays elephant and monkey noises and lights up. He's got himself some very strong legs! :)




Bath time!

Here's Nathan in his bath tub. He's gotten too big and splashes too much to be bathed in the little tub, though, so he's graduated onto the big tub. He loves to kick his legs and make as big a mess as he can :)




Applesauce!

On May 16th, Nathan had his first taste of applesauce. He seemed to really enjoy it (and really enjoyed being photographed!)

news about Warren

It looks like Warren will be leaving Kuwait this week and head over to Iraq. I got an email update from the company stating that the 1st Sgt is already there and already getting things ready for the soldiers. He mentioned that it's a little bit cooler at the FOB and that they will live in tents for a while until they can get a building built. Warren will have access to the internet and will have regular phone use. The soldiers are supposed to be at FOB Warhorse by the end of the week.

I have an address for him, so if anyone would like to have it please email me at gypsysorchid@gmail.com

Warren says that the PX (their store) there is small and so he'd appreciate anything anyone can send. He's mostly looking for snacks, lemon juice (the concentrate), powdered gatorade/powerade in individual packets, beef jerk and stuff like that. He'd also love to get letters from anyone, but emails are just as good. His email address is cat6tech@yahoo.com

Family visit

My aunt Catherine & cousin Stephanie came to visit us Friday.

Here's my cousin Stephanie with her cousin Nathan


On Saturday, we went to the Valero lodge and enjoyed a crawfish boil




And here's Catherine having fun with Nathan



We had a great time with Catherine & Stephanie. Saturday was spent at the lodge, Sunday was spent shopping around town and celebrating Stephanie's birthday. On Monday, we spent the day at the outlets in San Marcos and then on Tuesday (Stephanie's actual birthday) we spent time at the Alamo and hanging out at the Riverwalk.
