Giving Thanks....

 We were lucky enough to have Larz, Marty and Grey come visit us for Thanksgiving. It was SO fun to be together for the week - and especially fun to see Ruby and Grey together. We enjoyed some Texas sights, lots of delicious food, and - most importantly - some great quality time together.

Getting a picture of these two cuties together was no easy task....

This picture pretty much sums up the first few days of Ruby and Grey's journey toward best-friendship.

Texas barbeque....obviously.

Ruby with her Auntie Loo...

Check out these dudes! Best hair in all of Texas.

Food prep...lots of cooks and food in a tiny apartment kitchen. Good times.

Thanksgiving dinner! Ruby's favorite part was the stuffing....LOVED IT.

So lucky to have fam that also double as best friends!

Austin Botanical Garden...

Ruby was amazed and terrified of Grey's mobility and overall physical prowess....

Desperately trying to get them to both sit still and look at the camera....

It's not easy being smaller and less mobile...

BFFs.

Double digits and a dream come true...

Did Ruby really turn 10 months old a month ago? Madness.

Here are a few highlights:
- New tooth
- More opinionated with food
- Preferring to self feeding a lot more
- Loves banana, avocado, sweet potato, pear, toast
- Mastered the scowl
- Mobile aside from mastering moving forward
- Moved up to the 19 percentile! 18 lbs 3 oz, around 27 inches

We once again failed to take her official picture with Tigger etc, but luckily we made one of my dreams come true and took some professional family pictures right around that same time so she is well documented! Our friend Jessica Shumway took our pictures and we LOVE them. We took them at one of our favorite spots in town - the San Marcos river. The weather and lighting were perfect and we had a great time. Here are a few faves that I'm obsessed with. :)

Big Catch-Up Post....

Fall semester has certainly been a busy one, but we've been able to sneak in plenty of fun. Here are a few highlights that have yet to hit our blog. (In no particular order...EEK!)

We loved being back at The Majestic to see 'Catch me if you can'.....so fun.
