Reese's Blog: Summer in Texas

Hello Everyone!

It's been a couple of months since my last update, so I thought I better sit down and share my goings on.

My biggest adventure since my last update was a trip to Wisconsin to see Grandpa and help him celebrate his 60th birthday! It was a surprise and boy was he surprised! It was a great trip - I got to see and hang out with the whole family! While I was there I stayed up late every night, as I didn't want to miss out on any of the action. I also took a swim in the hotel pool with all the other little ones. And I wasn't the little kid this time...I was the big kid! There were lots of babies there!

I also got to hang out with my friend Bennett! He lives in Minnesota, so we saw him and his parents before we drove over to Wisconsin. We had a good time playing with all of his cool toys.

We also made a trip up to the pond in Oklahoma for Memorial Day. We hung out with my cousins there too. Mommy took me in the creek for a little swimming. I thought it was cool to walk on the rocks.

Mom and Dad took me to Glen Rose, Texas this weekend. We visited the Fossil Rim Wildlife Center. I got to feed the deer! They stuck their heads right in the truck! And Mommy and Daddy fed the giraffe right from their hands...the giraffe scared me a little though. It was really cool, but we forgot the camera!

I am taking swim lessons again this summer. Mommy said I did much better this weekend and I had fun holding onto the ledge and kicking my legs. I still don't like sticking my face all the way in the water, but I am starting to get used to it.

And since it is summer in Texas it is hot! Mommy and Daddy decided I could use a little pool of my own. So, I have a little one in the backyard that we can all get in to cool off on those hot days.

I was in charge of the pool filling activities!

Well, Mom hasn't been too good with the camera, so you'll only get a couple of photos of me this time!
