Here's a quick-ish version of what has gone on the past few weeks.
Mommy, Daddy, Little Dude, Nana, Poppers & Boomps (Little Dude's great-grandpa) got on an airplane and headed out to meet Little Dude's great-great grandmother!
It was his first plane ride. He did so good! The only problem came when they decided to do "donuts", as I like to call them, instead of landing. They kept changing altitude so it hurt his ears, but over all he was a champ!
Little Dude enjoyed the playground at the hotel!
Here he is being silly with Daddy.
He loved wearing his sunglasses.
Here is Little Dude at his great-great Gabby's house! He was feeding the geese for the first time with his Nana. He had to wave to them!
It was my first time meeting great-great Gabby as well. She is such a kind & sweet person. I am so glad we were able to make the trip to meet her.
Here are FIVE generations!! You can't see the family resemblance at all....
Why yes, that is my child being a ham.
Finally got a picture of him with his Nana and Poppers!
After we finished taking the pictures above, we headed to meet more extended family for dinner. While we were at dinner, Little Dude got sick. I mean, SICK. He has never been sick like that before. It was so sad seeing him feel so bad. He got sick 6 times throughout the night. He was doing okay the next day, which was good because we were flying back home. We got him loaded on the plane and in his seat when he got sick again. Thankfully we had prepared and quickly cleaned the mess! He spent most of the plane ride sleeping in my arms.
After going to the doctor it was determined he had a stomach bug. He wasn't his normal self for the rest of the week but is doing great now!
The Daddy had his high school class reunion last weekend. Little Dude got to spend the night with Grammy and Grampa. He had so much fun following them around. When they brought him back they told me they were exhausted. I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels that way after chasing him around all day!
The Daddy and I were treated to a Rangers baseball game last week with Nana and Poppers. We had so much fun! What made it even better was that they won! We are actually going to the game again tonight, so Little Dude will spend time with his little girlfriend.
Cousin R is in town staying with Grammy and Grampa because his parents are off in the Caribbean enjoying a nice vacation. Yesterday, we went to a local botanical garden to let the boys explore (and for photos, duh!)
Little Dude was showing Cousin R how to pick up the pumpkins and throw them.

I told the Daddy I was going to take overalls for Little Dude to wear. He laughed at me and said he can hear the green acres song playing. But once he saw the picture, the laughing stopped. SO. CUTE!
He was really working the crowd. Any one who walked by was commenting on how cute he was, which leads me to the next picture.
Little Dude has been taught manners. It is always polite to say hi. He really takes this job seriously and made sure to tell everyone hi (multiple times)!
This weekend is going to be just like any other - BUSY! The photo business is really starting to take off. I am finding that my weekends are no longer "mine", but I wouldn't have it any other way! Most of my weekdays are spent chasing after Little Dude and spending time with him. He really is a momma's boy, but he definitely enjoys time with other people. I hope you enjoy the update because at this rate, I will update this again in another 3 weeks - so enjoy the photos!
