W-A-C-O...such a venture!

This past weekend we drove up to Waco and visited Uncle Booty (Drew). Mom, Bryce, Jake, Kayla, and myself loaded up in my car and made the venture! The boys could not have been any better...I don't think either of them slept the whole way up there because they were so excited to see Booty. They love him and spending time with him in anyway is a treat...for everyone!

Mom, the boys, and I stayed at the Hilton, while Kayla stayed with Drew. The boys cooped up in a 20X20 hotel room with pretty things, was quite scary! I just knew something was going to break or not work after we left...luckily the hotel management hasn't called, YET!

Jake has decided that he's going to use the voice that God gave him! And boy does he. Though he is learning new words, he hasn't gotten all of the ones he truly needs; therefore he yells or whales to get our attention or what he wants! So, while eating out this whole weekend, I realized that he couldn't be such a disruption during meals. I am very big on manners-please, thank you, yes/no ma'am/sir. I thought, please...that's an easy word, and he's heard me say it a zillion times! Yes, it was, but we've used it in over-kill. Now, if Jake wants something, he says, "peeze" and thinks that he's going to get it-whatever it is!!! It still is just precious to hear....

Bryce has grown up tremendously...and so has his vocabulary! Interruptions are a big no-no in my books. That was something I had a hard time with growing up, and I don't want the boys to begin that habit! Well, too late! It must just be a kid thing. I constantly have to remind Bryce not to interrupt my converstaion if it be on the phone, in person, or via text =)So the other day while Jason and I were talking, Bryce walks up to us and says, "Mom, I'm going to interrupt your converstaion. Thank you." Before I could even respond to his statement, I busted out laughing! Crap! He used his manners and said thank you, but.....of course the conversation Jay and I were having was forgotten immediately-maybe that was his intention!

This weekend...Bryce and I head to Houston for a little Texas Trophy Hunters Extravangza.......I'm sure there will be stories!
