Tex Ecks - Part II

Cousins! Cooper, Alex & Leah

Riding the train.

I forgot how hard it was to get a shot with two babies looking at the camera.

Leah meets horses.

This weekend Leah and I made a trip down to Austin to see Pete & his family. It was a great trip & we had a lot of fun. The weather was a little cooler than they forecast, but that's probably a good thing because I would have a major case of spring fever if it had been!

We got in Friday before dinner and Saturday went to Zilker Park. We rode the train there & played on the playground. There were a lot of dogs at the park which thrilled Leah. That night we made a quick stop by Melissa's dad's place. He has horses, a cow and two dogs. Guess which Leah was the most excited about? Then on Sunday we went to a nice park by their house before we had to get on the plane.

Despite his rough start, Cooper is a smiley 6 month old developing just like he should. His next surgery will probably be before April. Alex is 14 and is your typical teenager. Pete & Melissa were wonderful hosts & let us break in some of Cooper's things. :) We want to make another trip sometime with Joe and check out more of the sites in Austin.
