Our road trip started out after a bar mitzvah. We went to East Texas to help out a friend. It turned out that we didn't to need help so the rest of the weekend became our own. We drove around Jacksonville and Rusk then ended up at Lake Livingston State Park. Yes, you guessed it, we got Bella's State Park Passport stamped. She actually got the "Piney Woods" sticker! Yeah!We went to Lake Livingston State Park when Bella was in her teen months. We didn't camp, but just visited friends who were camping. It's not a fond memory. Hanging out with friends was a ton of fun, but at the end of the evening, for no apparent reason, Bella barfed. As I swung her around to avoid getting throw-up on me, the vomit sprayed across my face and mostly ended up in my hair. It was one of those moments when time slowed. My initial reaction was right on, I was avoiding the stream of barf, but as I moved, Bella moved and countered my move. Fortunately, this recent trip disassociated Lake Livingston with throw-up.
Above is a picture of Bella walking. She insisted on wearing those green shoes which are 2 sizes too big. She can still walk, but becomes pigeon-toed and clunky with the too big shoes.
Below is a picture of Matt and Bella crossing a crooked bridge.
Bella says, "I don't know" and motions with questioning hands. It's adorable and we mimic it all the time.
Swing, swing, swing. The girl likes to swing.
She also likes to climb. She is fearless. Her 'too big' shoes got stuck to the side (rubber soles don't slide on metal) so it was a one time ride.
All by herself, she climbs.

Can't wait to see the "I don't know" in person.
Gotta love the barf free vacations:)
