Bentley

I can't believe how big he is getting. He is SO much fun. He's a really good baby (when he's not screaming his head off). :) To say the very least- this baby is my life saver. He brings so much joy to all of our lives. He is a cuddler and will flash you his big boy smile all the time! Love him! I snapped this picture earlier this week. Love his hand...

Milking the Milk Pail

My friend and I have been talking for a long time about meeting for lunch. Last week she and I finally made a date to meet and when she asked where I had in mind I told her I always wanted to try this cute little place out. I have passed it so many times and never went in! It's in "downtown" League City. It's called the Milk Pail.
So cute, right! Quaint and charming and inviting
Even has this cute cow mail box!
Bentley and I showed up first and they showed us to this lovely room.

Then they decided to change us to a different room. It was kind of secluded and kind of crowded. Still so cute!! They served many types of tea and wine (don't drink either) so we had the pink lemonade. Look how cute the little milk pails are as refills! I think our chaos started when Amber spilled the small milk pail onto her son's table cloth. :p
It wasn't too long after that when Bent became out of control. Normally it's not a huge deal but in this place where we were packed in like sardines it was! I had to scoot our table out so I could feed him and try to calm him down. Then this little guy Amber bbsits added his story to Bentleys. We were quite the spectacle!
She and I laughed SO much! We figured it out pretty quick that we should have met at McDonalds with our crew but neither of us knew what to expect going in. So, what can you do in those situations but laugh! The food was so good and the dessert was even better! We had the chocolate cake. Everything is homemade and fresh. The atmosphere was so vintage. The best part of today was how hard we laughed and the good conversation we had. We so have to go back with more friends! Thank you Amber for everything!!

Lunch with Cali and Bella

Bentley and I walked to the school on Monday and met Cali and Bella for lunch.
They have a special section just for parents eating with their kids. Cali was waiting for me (can you spot her)
It is great at this school because the majority of Cali and Bella's lunches overlap. It makes it easy for me to meet them and be in and out in an hour.
Isabella created quite the outfit for herself that day :D
My cute girl in her boots!
Can't forget to feed baby
I didn't realize that my name badge was wrong until I got home and took it off. HAHA. It's funny to me because Brae and Ken's school had my last name wrong last year on these badges and now this year it's "Iviurdock". Seriously, how do you mess up "Murdock" or get "Ivi" for an "M"??

Nighttime Fun @ Kemah Boardwalk

Saturday night Braelyn suggested we go walk around the Kemah Boardwalk. I thought about driving down to the beach but it takes a lot of gas so Braelyn's idea was brilliant. I've never been there at night. Our neighbors met us there. We had a blast!
It's all decorated for Halloween!
No drama here! Yeah right!
Bella Boo. Yes, these kids were running through this water fountain. They managed to not get soaking wet at least.

Bentley was amused with the music, colors and lights

Brae doing her "scary" pose

So so funny! These are our neighbor's, Aiden and Riley. I think it's crazy that these are both names of my nephews too! :)
Live music playing familiar songs- the best!! The weather was beautiful too.

The foyer of the Aquarium has a giant fish tank and this nasty, sickening, gross eel was in it!
Jaws!

Can you see the pre-teen attitude she was oozing. She just wanted her OWN picture by this shark but the kids wouldn't leave her alone. Can you find "Waldo" in this picture? haha
Bella and Death
Cali
Very talented flame thrower/juggler who the kids spotted after his show spending his tip money on beer. Greeeaat! haha
Super fun time overall. We are setting up a date soon to go back with our friends and their families!! Good ol' FREE times. Love it.
