Memorial Day Weekend

We had such an awesome weekend!

On Saturday, I had to work for a few hours in the morning, so your mom took you with her to Panera for a quick lunch and then shopping to get a new dress, and you had so much fun with her!

Then, around 2:30pm, we all met up at one of my most favorite places ever, The San Antonio Museum of Art!

You really enjoyed seeing everything, but were especially drawn to the Ancient Egypt section.

We didn’t intend to stay long, but time really flew by, and before we knew it, it was closing time. There’s still so much more to see, so we’ll have to make that a regular hangout spot!

After the museum, we went to another one of my favorite San Antonio spots, The Cove, for burgers and tacos. You were really sleepy by this point but still enjoyed stealing fries from me!

On Sunday, we FaceTimed with Nana Martin and your Aunt Kaelyn, and then went shopping at Bussey’s Flea Market in Schertz. We found you an awesome rechargeable fan that can attach to your stroller, which was much needed —it’s so hot this summer!

We went to an awesome Mexican candy shop near our house, and then H-E-B for some dinner supplies.

We grilled fajitas and made cilantro-rice bowls.

I have so much fun spending time with you and your mom! My life is so much better because of the two of you!

I love you so much, and am so proud of you every day!

-Your Dad, Kerry

Fall Fun

We’ve been keeping busy this month! We watched your Uncle Kyle coach your two cousins in soccer, and got to spend some time with Uncle Kris before his move to Minnesota. We spend an afternoon at the Uhland Fall Festival where you played in a hammock, hung out with some cute animals in the petting zoo, and played in a giant corn pit! We drove to San Antonio and participated in a candlelight vigil organized by The Esparanza Center in support of Palestine, and you met one of my oldest friends, Alvaro! You sometimes stand on your own now, and are more curious than ever! You are growing your canine teeth, which is great news, because you LOVE eating steak! Tomorrow you are going to get your very first haircut ever! You are the best thing that has ever happened to our family, and we love you so much! -Your Dad, Kerry

Brooklyn Walks

You are really growing into such an amazing person, Brooklyn! You are very confident with walking now. You especially love walking into your daycare classroom by yourself so your friends can see how grown up you are. At home one of your favorite things to do is to stand by our record player and dance while listening to records. Music brings me joy as well. I’m so happy to share that with you! Before the pandemic, I modified a portable turntable into a pretty awesome scratch instrument, and recently I showed you how it works. Now you point to it everyday and ask to scratch records. I hope you have that hobby for a long time, so that I can share that with you also! You’re such a joyous human being. You find the humor in everything, and literally wake up laughing most mornings. You definitely take after your mother in this way. You are both lightning rods for happiness. I sometimes feel like I am too repetitive with what I write here, but, one day you will hopefully read this and wh...
