I Heart Zoos

If you tune in to my blog much, you will know that I love going to the zoo. So the San Antonio zoo was a must on our trip and it did not disappoint!

We are such a big family now that we cannot even all fit in one stroller! I love these brothers!

Max and the fish

There were lots of places to play in this zoo.

And boy did we run!

You could also feed the lories. Mom and Dad thought I might be scared of them, but I wasn't scared at all!

Max usually scared them away ha ha!

Lots of animals to see!

What a fun day at the zoo!

We even got to go on a real train ride. Now that was fun!

After a morning out in the heat, we cooled off at the hotel pool.

Just wait until you see what we did next!

San Antonio Stroll

Since we were in New Braunfels for Miss Molly's wedding, we decided to spend some time in nearby San Antonio. It was fun and HOT! Good thing we're from south Texas and we love the heat!

We ate dinner at one of Mommy's favorite San Antonio spots, Mi Tierra's. I got to see all of my New Jersey familia who stayed over after the wedding.

I played on the riverwalk with some of my cousins before they headed home.

We even took a riverboat tour. Mommy said she has been to San Antonio lots of times, but even she had never been on one of these boats!

Max was having a good time!

And Mason did a lot of this....he was a trooper though!

Sooo much went on that I have to break it up over a few posts...stay tuned!

Molly's Wedding

I'm a bit behind in blogging folks. We have been fitting in last minute travels before our big move to East Texas! I will try to catch you up with a few posts.

This is Molly. Isn't she beautiful? She married Brent (because she wouldn't wait for me and we're related, but I digress...). We went to her wonderful wedding in New Braunfels.

I made lots of friends....and a girl friend! ;)

There were yummy snacks (don't worry, my girlfriend was digging my chocolate face)

I would like Kerbie to marry me, but we're related too. Why are all the good ones my cousins?

Max was his usual cute mess-making self!

We danced the afternoon away and had a great time. Thanks for inviting us Molly!

Dinosaurs Have Taken Over The Zoo!

I love me some mid-week zoo trips while Mommy is on maternity leave! We went this week and let me tell you...there are some interesting new inhabitants at the Houston Zoo. More about that in a minute.

Look at Mason all ready for the zoo!

Maxer and I ride around the zoo in style.

Was I right or what? Look at this thing! It moves and makes sounds and everything!

We got to hold a real-sized t-rex tooth!-

Umm...forgive me if I was too distracted by the GIGANTIC T-Rex to smile for this picture!

Time for a snack break.

Mason has had enough of the zoo.

Look how big I'm getting!

Max had to copy me.

I even found a friendly dinosaur that I could ride on!

Fun day at the zoo!

Freedom Baby!!!

I'm so lucky to be growing up in the land of the free. We celebrated the 4th of July Port O;Connor style...

Family pic!

Granny and Pop's "beach cart"

Mommy and Mason piled on too.

Playing on Pop's boat

Time to do a little fishing.


Mommy and Daddy got to do some fishing too!



Look at Mommy's BIG red fish!


We are buddies.

All of the grandkids piled on the golf cart!

Happy Independence Day everyone!

Where Did June Go?

Well folks, here is is JULY!!! The summer is flying by. Mason is growing like a weed. Mommy took this picture today. He's two months old and weighs a whopping 11 lbs, 3 oz (don't worry, I can still lift him!) That's a big gain from his 6 lbs 12 oz just two months ago!

In other news...we've spent June outside!!!

Here we are at the Victoria zoo for Mommy's 15 year high school reunion (wow she's super old!)

Even though she's super old, Mommy managed to climb up with me to my tree house in Granny and Pop's backyard.

I like this little guy. Sometimes Mommy and Daddy leave him in this boppy to tend to Max and I scoop him up! They return to find me holding him (and they look a little scared), but I'm always holding his head!

Here we are walking to the playground. Mason's tucked in there with Mommy. I love the playground!

We all like playing with Mason's toys!

The Mitchell Men

Lots of swimming going on around here!

Max loves the water

Watch out people

I hope your summer is as fun as mine!

One Great Dad!

Happy Father's Day Daddy!

You are terrific!

Love,
Miles

My Favorite Judge

We are in East Texas this week visiting Mimi and Pepaw. Today we went to visit my favorite judge, Judge Davis. If you follow my blog, you'll see that the subtitle says "thoughts from an East Texas Chambers baby" and that's because for the first six months of my life, I went to work everyday with Mommy and she worked for said favorite judge. Judge Davis is awesome!

It was so great to catch up!




It was a fun day!
