I heart San Antonio

If you haven't learned already, I LOVE LOVE LOVE San Antonio. I fell in love with that place when Lex and I were dating, when we went to visit his Mom. There is so much to do and it's such a big place but, doesn't feel big. It's gorgeous and has some REALLY great Mexican restaurants. Oh how I wanted to move there for the longest time. We love getting to visit his Mom there! She always has Diet Dr Pepper waiting on us too!!

Last Thursday we traveled there for Lex's step-sister, Madeline's graduation. The trip there was a little rough. Kagen CAN NOT stand sitting still for long so we had some issues.... haha! We finally arrived late Thursday night and were so ready for bed. We took so many pictures this weekend, to look at most of our pictures you can go here to see them.
On Friday, the three of us headed down town, of course, to hang out. Our first stop was the San Antonio Children's Museum. That place was awesome! Kagen had a blast and loved being able to run around and touch everything.




Bubbles!






She refused to get in this plane


mmmm, lunch time


The Alamo



Saturday, we went to Madeline's graduation. Kagen didn't like having to sit still so we ended up going to the bottom and letting her run around. She is constantly on the move!

These are Lex's step-sisters, Danielle and Madeline. I am so proud to be a part of their family. These girls have the best attitudes and are so sweet, not to mention gorgeous! I love them.


Lex is not in this picture because we had to leave after Madeline walked due to Kagen throwing a few tantrums.... I'll get to that later. This is Lex's Grandmother and cousins, Grayson and Travis with the girls.


She loves her Mimi


Some of us at Ruth's Chris (YUM!) for Madeline's graduation dinner.


We left on Sunday and decided to make a pit stop in Austin to visit the Capital Building. We didn't get any pictures inside though! We had Jake with us so we had to take turns going in and looking around. It is such a beautiful building and area.

Kagen LOVED walking Jake and I think it wore here out, which was our goal. ;)






We weren't out there 5 minutes before Kagen's little face got red from the heat and her hair got REAL curly from the humidity.


So about our sweet little girl throwing really BIG tantrums.... I guess this is what "they" call the terrible two's?! She has been very moody this past week. I'm hoping this faze doesn't last long but, my oh my she is wearing me out some days! lol Time Out has been helping some so maybe if we continue with them she will not be so rebellious? I guess that would be the way to put it... Here is an example of my sweet child throwing a fit. ;)

She did not want me to hold her for a picture, she wanted to run around with Jake...


*sigh* She is also a sweet girl and I know that these fits/tantrums are part of the process and perhaps a little pay back for my behavior. ;)

The ride home was much more pleasant. Especially after getting ice cream!
