Big Monday

Will getting ready for Big Monday basketball (TX vs. A&M). He didn't quite make it to the game since bedtime was 90 minutes before tip off, but by counting all the laps he walked around the house I think he was excited for it.

Morris Museum of Art

One of my favorites: The Charleston door

Saturday we decided to check out the print sale at the Morris Museum of Art. Unfortunately, we came home empty handed, but were rewarded with a great morning spent at a fantastic art museum. This was our first trip to the museum and it did not disappoint. With the art being hung high and the museum being pretty empty Will even got to stretch his legs a bit.

T1: Ready or not here we come!

We've got our gameday outfit on ready to start visiting T1 today.

Called Up to the Big League

Today I got the big call that Will has been tapped to move up to the big Leagues (Yes T1 Class!) Tomorrow starts our two week visitation where we cut our time between both the infant room and T1 to get us acquainted with the change. We have been working hard to get his pre-recs so he could move up and join some of his old friends. It should be quite a big change for our little guy (scheduled nap time and feedings, sitting at a table to eat, playground sand and of course starting the learning process P90x style.) We are excited and sad to leave the infant teachers who spoil and love Will as much as Mark and me, but I know we we'll still visit them and learn to love the T1 teachers just as much. We'll keep you all updated on our progress--it should be interesting as the last words of advice they gave us were beware of biters and we will call if it breaks the skin.

Brusha, Brusha, Brusha

Four teeth are quite a lot to be proud of and should be taken care, so we started trying to brush Will's teeth. I think he enjoys eating the toothbrush and toothpaste more than anything. Luckily, Mark was able to get in there a little bit better than me and get Will's gums & teeth brushed (something tells me I'll have a lot more practice as time goes on.) Also a big thanks to Mark's co-resident, Lauren, who suggested we get the toothbrush instead of the brush that goes on my finger as I'm sure I would have possibly lost a finger or had battle scars with Will's chompers.

P.S. the joke about who created the toothbrush or otherwise it would be called a teethbrush never gets old!

I was sad to miss Aunt Lulu's 30th ranch birthday party in Texas so Mark and Will tried really hard to cheer me up this weekend. I think they did a great job:)

Ophthalmology Dinner (Liver Rounds)

Friday night the whole group came over for liver rounds. We had a great time and it's been one of the few times the entire group has been able to get together without someone being called in. The best thing were the 5 ophto mascots under the age of 3 (William, Will, West, Wynn & Elizabeth) running around the house. Mark is so blessed to work with such a great group and we sure will be sad to see some of the older residents move on after this year.
