The Beach.

The highlight of the last weekend was visiting Corpus Christi. The beach was spectacular, and I loved the sand, the waves and, of course, Whataburger.

We left at the crack of dawn since the drive was long.

We stopped for lunch at Whataburger.

image

I thought the water was cold at first.

image

Mom was obsessed with my tiny footprints in the sand.

image

I loved the feel of the sand. Mom was afraid I would try to eat it, but she shouldn't have worried.

image

I had so much fun with mom in the sun sand and waves.

image

I found the whole experience exhuasting, but I would go back in a heartbeat. What do you say, mom?

Weekend Getaway.

This past weekend I went with mom down to Auntie Gwennie’s. It was an adventure.

Three ladies, two generations.

We enjoyed the sunshine on her back porch.

Mom goes giddy over this romper and sun hat.

We dipped our toes in the local river that is always a balmy 72 degrees.

image

72 degrees is not THAT warm.

We took in the sights of Austin, including the unintentional tourist traps.

Rather great graffiti. Notice our matching cowboy boots?

My favorite part was, of course, the beach.

image

Beach romper, umbrella and the distant waves. Can it get much better??

Thanks Auntie Gwennie for a wonderful weekend!!!

Promoted.

I recently got a promotion. I am now part of the technical design staff.

image

My own keyboard allows me to make my own design decisions, even if they don't seem to show up in the final product.

I was most recently in the position of supportive designer.

image

I have good design input, and make good drool on desk sketches.

I started out in a very entry level position, which mostly consisted of being the inspirational support to the head designer.

image

My employee reviews complained that I too often napped on the job.

As I acquire new skills in my continuing education classes, I am sure I will continue to be promoted. I recently signed up for the baby food finger painting class, and those skills should be a big help as dad tackles his tough design issues.

Poor Twizzle.

I am pretty sure Twizzle and I will be pretty great friends, and he might even let me ride him like a pony someday, but I get the feeling he is a little bit jealous of me. This might have something to do with morning cuddles in mom and dad’s bed. I can’t help it that I am small, sweet smelling and not furry. Sorry Twiz.

Snow day.

There was a big spring snow storm yesterday. There was quite a bit out there, about half a Rowan worth of snow. This was less than was forecasted.

I can’t really understand why snow is fun. I just stood in it for a while then went back inside. Mom said something about moguls, with a wistful look in her eye.

image

Well, until I figure out what these mogul things are, I will stand in opportune holes in the snow while dad holds me, mom points her magic white box at me and Twizzle threatens to knock me over. Hooray for snow days.

Best kind of nap.

Sometimes I find it rather tedious to be in my crib all by myself during the day. When dad is home and this happens, I know a few purposeful shouts will lead to a much improved situation.

Snoozing with dad.

Dad is always willing to let me nap on his shoulder. This almost makes up for that iPhone situation.
