Summer in Texas

With Landon's job we get to move for a few months every summer. This summer it took us to Keller Texas, which is near Ft Worth. Hawkes stayed pretty busy and here are a few photos to show what he was up to. It's a few months behind, but at least it's up and maybe I can get caught up soon.

2 pairs of sunglasses is always cooler than 1.








We were lucky enough to have a pool at our apartment. Hawkes thought it was the greatest place ever and could hang out just floating in the water all day. He actually got really good at keeping his head up and not swallowing water. He even got brave enough to jump from the side of the pool.










We also got to go the Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas that was all about John F Kennedy. Hawkes was super into the tour and he even saw the grassy knoll.












This picture was from our day at the stockyards. They still drive the cattle through the middle of the street. Hawkes loved being so close to the big cattle. He also loved exploring the railroad tracks, even in the million degree weather.





This was our 4th of July. Hawkes mostly just said wow a lot, but I think he enjoyed it. Even if he spent the whole time laying on my shoulder. I loved every minute of it.




















We also had a little playground that Hawkes loved to crawl around on. We could only last about 5 minutes at a time though, because it was so hot. Even at 9:30 at night it was still 95 degrees and Hawkes would get really fun heat rashes.




The apartment next to ours had a nest of baby birds that Hawkes was obsessed with. Every time we walked past to go to the pool he would be glued to the rails trying to catch a glimpse of them. 


He also continues to love bath time, and his hair is getting long enough to do some really cool hair do's.



He thinks diapers are just extra storage. How else could you carry a whole pack of markers at once? It was pretty funny to watch him get so frustrated when they kept falling out though. 


He also likes to be naked. I love his little tan line!


Hawkes demonstrates his affinity for french fries. Smart kid




















Like I've said before, one is never enough for Hawkes. He needed his whole pack of swim diapers on at once. At least he's getting really good at smiling for the camera.
