Hand and Footprinting

Hand and Footprinting
We didn't get hand or foot prints when she was born, so I wanted to get some before she gets too big. Bought some infant-safe ink online, waited for her to fall asleep...

Another Great Weekend in Austin


Well, we went back to Austin this past weekend for an ortho conference and got to stay at the Barton Creek Resort again! I'm beginning to really like this place. We left Thursday and came home today, Saturday. Friday was an awesome day! Brandon had to be at the conference early (6:30am) so I planned to sleep in. No can do. Not with a baby. I was up shortly after he left. However, Catherine did sleep from 11:30 to 7:30 that night so I can't complain too much. Anyway, woke at 7:30 with plans of going back to sleep after feeding Catherine. Again, didn't happen. But that's ok, because we ended up having the best day ever!!! After feeding, I moved the little angel to our king sized bed and propped her up on Brandon's pillow. She loves to be in the bed, fell right back to sleep. I rented He's Just not that into you on the "On Demand" channel and ordered room service. Yummy Buttermilk pancakes with candied pecans, maple syrup and a bananas foster cream sauce and a latte - $26 - but worth it! It was so good, the best pancakes I've ever had. Then I rented another movie - Beverly Hills Chihuahua. Tried to watch movies that I knew Brandon would not be upset if he missed. After watching Bev Hills Chi, I took a nap with Catherine. Then Emily Ellwood, an old friend, came by for a chat. When she left, Catherine and I jumped in the tub for a relaxing soak. She loves to soak with me in the tub. Brandon came back from his conference about that time, helped me feed and dress Catherine and we were off to the Salk Lick for some good ole Texas BBQ! What a lovely day! And this is why I never want to work again!
