Valentine's Weekend

Adam had the entire weekend off of Valentine's so we both took off the friday before and made a quick trip to Mississippi. Adam's grandparents live there and haven't had a chance to meet little Garrison yet. I was nervous about his first flight but he did excellent! He fell asleep both times right before take off and then slept about half the flight. He didn't fuss once! He is such a good baby! Everyone keeps telling me baby #2 will be hell on wheels.... people quit jinxing me!! NOTE:: Baby #2 is NOT coming anytime soon!! Garrison really enjoyed his visit with his great-grandparents. He even got to try his first bites of "real" food...oranges and cheerios. It is crazy how he chews his food like he knows exactly what he is doing! He did so well that he has also had peas and carrots since. For Valentines Day we went to dinner at the Beau Rivage...Garrison's first trip to the Casino! :) Adams Great Uncle and Aunt, and one of his cousin's joined us. We had a really nice dinner. It was sad coming back to Texas and we wish they would hurry up and move here!

Who signed up for running....?!?!

My dear friend Laci....you might recognize her from the hospital pics when Garrison was born, she was the one who was afraid to hold him :)....she will love me for this....However, she now spoils him rotten and loves spending time with us....Saturday night Garrison and I went to her apartment and helped her declutter her closets....oh what an exciting saturday night....Anyway, Im getting off topic....So my dear friend Laci, decided to motivate me and we signed up for a 5k run together. I started training about 3 weeks ago, got on the treadmill all excited and ran about a half mile...whew!! YES, I have a loooooooooong way to go. I hadn't realized how much pregnancy took out of me! Now Im up to running 2 miles and I have less than 3 weeks til the big day...wish us luck!!

Also, Garrison is 7 months old! My how time flies by! I will post a recent pic. We get stopped everywhere we go and ppl want to see him and talk about how cute he is...maybe this is normal, i dont know. Last night he got called a girl 3 times, by 3 different people who stopped us!! He was in green and yellow, so I guess from now on he will only wear blue and footballs!! It's the curse of his blue eyes!! At Garrison's 6 month appt he weighs 18 lbs and is 27 1/2 inches long. Growing like a weed this child!
