Trip to Texas; Siblings Class

Aiden on South Padre Island (isn't the seaweed lovely this time of year?)


Aiden and Liz enjoying the coolness of wetsand on a hot July day. Aiden enjoyed throwing the sand back into the ocean in an exercise of pure futility.



This is just a picture we snapped at Aiden's Buelito and Buelita's house. I'm partial to this picture. Wonder why.

Those were our pictures from our July trip to San Benito, Tx to visit my inlaws. It was predictably hot and the mosquitos were ubiquitous. Despite that we had a great time. It's always a dual pleasure of spending times with loved ones and getting away from home for a while. Aiden does great on the plane ride there and back, which sure makes life much easier.

We were fortunate to leave exactly one week before Hurricane Dolly arrived. Liz's family suffered some structural damage to their home and a nearby storage unit, but everyone remained safe, praise God. Fortunately between the small congregation where Buelito preaches there in Texas and some help from other congregations of Christ's church, they were able to make all the necessary repairs. Again, praise God.

Well that was way back in July. Way back last week, we took Aiden to a siblings class at the hospital. We both felt like that was helpful for him to get familiar with the hospital and to get to see what his baby sister will be like, sort of. Let me mention that that class is free. That is a great thing to offer to parents free of charge. I would gladly pay for a class like that.

Next post: Aiden poos and sees dinosaurs.
