Yesterday was supposed to be a school holiday, but the school district decided to have class to make up for the day classes were cancelled because of our itty bitty snowfall (see pictures below of T3 playing with his train in the snow and another with T2 making a snow angel). While T1 was at school, Matt and T2 hung out all day and I grabbed T3 and headed to Austin. T3 and I had a delicious lunch with good company and then headed over to Zilker Park where we had fun on the playground, ate snowcones, rode the train, and had a clown make swords out of balloons for us. We had such a good time!
It takes almost an hour to get to Zilker Park so I was trying to listen to the Wicked soundtrack while driving, but my little chatterbox wasn't having any of it. He just talked and talked and talked and talked... Not only does he talk non-stop, but he'll also disagree for the sake of disagreeing. When he senses you've had enough, he'll then sweetly tell you "I wuv you." When you say you love him too, he says "But I wuv you so much, so super much." My irritation then fades away, but his talking never stops. In that regard, he reminds me a lot of T1 when he was a little guy. He's very different from T2, though. T2 has grown more shy and quiet in recent months. He colors a lot (very detailed and intricately), puts together puzzles, and enjoys video games. He's definitely not a chatty Cathy. I think it will be very interesting to see how they evolve over time. Will T3 be a mini-T1? Will T2 be a introverted brainiac?
Matt and I had the opportunity to spend the weekend in New Orleans recently. We had a blast, but it wouldn't have been possible without the help of Grandma Sara, Pops (a.k.a. Marcus), and Nana. They did such a great job caring for and loving on the boys while we were gone. We are so thankful!
