On Sunday, Doug and Tory came by the house on their way to the airport. They had been in Aspen for a wedding over the weekend and Brad (who lives here in Denver but went to UT) was taking them to the airport. Since these guys are all Texas fans, we dressed Austin in his UT gear for their visit. They had not been to our house either so we were so happy they could swing by, even though it was a short visit. Doug had originally asked David if he could stay at our house on Thursday 8/11 before heading up to Aspen. Hahaha...good thing we declined because that ended up being our first night at home. Not that we don't love them, but house guests on our first night home would not have been fun for us, or for them.
That same day, David's cousin Christy, her husband Corrie, and their girls Hayden and Maddie, came over. They just got back from Yellowstone and Jackson Hole. They brought Austin some cute socks with moose on them and some yummy cookies. Hayden is 9 and Maddie is 7....future babysitters? Christy even offered to watch Austin if I need to run an errand or too. I think I might take her up on that.
Last night, Ryan came over to watch the Texans game with David at a near-by bar/restaurant. Austin wasn't decked out in burnt orange, but Ryan still got him to put his horns up.
Austin has been spending some quality time in his bouncer that Uncle Stephen and Aunt Ricki gave him...thanks! This morning we tried out the Baby Bjorn for the first time and Savannah appreciated that since we ventured outside and played fetch with her.
P.S. Thank you, David, for sharing your thoughts. I appreciate your compliment that I am dominating being a mother. I wouldn't say that, but I am loving it so far, that's for sure. Our little guy will grow up so fast, so let's enjoy every day with him.
