Wimberley

Ryan wanted to go to another swimming hole in Wimberley this summer so we decided to wait until school started. So, Friday we decided to make a day trip up to Wimberley. Lucky for me we drove right past the outlets in San Marcos so we stopped to do a little shopping. I was so excited to find the perfect green quilted bumper and pink and white paisley crib skirt for baby girl"s room (no - she doesn't have a name yet) at the Pottery Barn Outlet. The best part was they rang up even cheaper than they had on the tags so we got a super deal! After shopping at a few stores we headed to Wimberley. We weren't quite sure where the swimming hole was so we stopped at the information center. Asher was asleep so Ryan ran in and I stayed in the car. I knew there must be some chatty ladies in there when he was gone forever! Finally he came back asking me what I felt like for lunch since the ladies were sure I had some craving and wanted to send us to the perfect place to eat. We did have a great little lunch, but unfortunately school starting back up meant the swimming hole was closed. So, we headed to the river instead. Asher and Ryan had lots of fun in the water as long as the geese didn't get too close. Asher hated the geese and cried everytime they started squawking. No Reed roadtrip in the hill country would be complete without a bbq stop, so we stopped in Lockhart on the way home. We were quite disappointed in Black's bbq except for Asher who loved their baked beans. We had lots of fun and can't wait for another trip to the hill country.

Tractors, Trucks, and Puzzles

Since coming home from Arizona Asher has decided his favorite word is tractor. It doesn't matter what passes us on the road he yells out "tractor". We're trying to get him to say truck and bus too, but he prefers tractor. He has also started to push his trucks around everywhere making different sound effects. He is definitely being all boy lately!

Yesterday we sat down to do puzzles, which usually consists of Asher handing me the pieces and I put them on, but to my surprise he started matching up the pieces! I couldn't believe he had gotten so big! He couldn't wait to do the puzzle with Ryan when he got home.

We're Back

Asher and I had such a fun time visiting my family in Arizona. He got to play with his cousins everyday and will miss having the boys around since it's all girls here in Katy. We tried to cram a lot in duirng our two weeks so we shopped, played in the splash pad, had cousin pictures, family dinners, ate out way too much, went up north to play in the creek and stopped by the fish hatchery, went to the bounce house, played in Grandma and Grandpa's backyard and more. Lets just say there were a few times we sure wish Ryan was with us, especially with the cold creek water and my big pregnant self on the bounce house inflatables. We were sure happy to see him when we got home! Here is our trip in pictures.
