A Little Night Music, Part 2

In December 2009, Texas sang himself to sleep with a sweet solo performance of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. (Check it out: http://texasfogerty.blogspot.com/2009/12/new-little-night-music.html). Tonight, he has made an encore.

Enjoy!

To Amanda, with love.

Today was Amanda's last day. We were all very sad. When Amanda drove away in her car, I explained to Texas that she wouldn't be around for a few weeks. Seeming to understand, he began to shout for Amanda in our driveway. Before bed , Texas asked to call her on the phone. He is going to miss her so much.

This chalk drawing on our driveway captures Tex's feelings for Amanda:
Texas loves trash trucks
Texas + Amanda = BFF
We are so happy for Amanda and David. They are going to make excellent parents. We can't wait to meet little David!

Until then,
this is Texas and Mommy signing off for now.

Valentine's delight!

We had a great Valentine's day. Mommy made heart-shaped pancakes for breakfast. They were pink and they had loads of chocolate chips in them. We called Grand-Daddee for his birthday. Texas sang happy birthday on the phone. Then we went next door for a Valentine's day playgroup. All of Tex's friends were there: Hannah, Sofia, Jacob, Olivia, Quinn, Nathan, and Maya. Texas passed out Valentines to everyone and ate year's-worth of sweets in a single afternoon. The Swedish pancakes were the best! We also had a visit from Auntie Daner, a treat in itself!

After a quick lunch and afternoon nap, we went to the beach to watch the sunset. We saw the famous green flash just as the sun disappeared. Everyone clapped. We also watched the roller coaster "choo choo" at least ten times as it rattled around the track. Texas managed to eat one more treat before bedtime, a chocolate-dipped rice krispy treat, and then fell fast asleep. It was a great day.

Enjoy these pictures!
