Practice, Practice!

Since the pregnancy travel embargo starts soon, I finished my last week in Boston (for work). Then, Papa Tigger and I traveled to Austin to see the family one last time. We were also in town to have an early birthday celebration for our adorable niece SweetPea, who will be two later this month. We made sure we got plenty of SweetPea time, since she's so adorable (and we need the practice)!

On Friday, we took SweetPea to the park (all by ourselves!!). She had lots of fun. Here's SweetPea with Papa Tigger:


A quick break to let Mama Tigger clean dirt out of her shoes:

More fun with Papa Tigger:

On Saturday, we headed to the local water park, where Sweet Pea had lots of fun. She loves water!!

The water park included a lazy river with serious water sprays. Here's Papa Tigger and SweetPea's Mom trying to protect SweetPea from the sprays:

Towards the end of our visit, SweetPea was getting ready for her nap. That's the only explanation we can think of for her trance-like fascination with the water......

Papa Tigger and I laughing at her fascination:

I got worried she might dunk her head....

But no, she's still staring....

She's getting lower...

And she's finally moved on to something else.

We thought we did a pretty good job with SweetPea Saturday morning, though we were tired out. Here's Papa Tigger that afternoon:

Overall, it was a good weekend. Here's a final pic of SweetPea playing with Papa Tigger. We had fun too. Thanks to SweetPea's parents for letting us spend the weekend with her!
