Better than Yesterday

The main reason we are in Texas is because Michael has been in training yesterday and today for work. While he is training, Eliza and I have been hanging out in the hotel. We usually don't let her watch TV, but that is about the only thing there is to do. She has really enjoyed watching PBS programs, like Sesame Street, Cailou and Clifford. It is super cute because she giggles while they laugh.

Watching Clifford

The past week or so has been pretty rough on  our little family because Eliza has not been wanting to eat. I figured out that it was the soy formula that we had her on which was irritating her tummy. She still isn't ready for soy or dairy, so I bought some hypo-allergenic formula and that seems to be making an improvement. She still isn't interested in solids, but I am going to give her tummy time to heal before I get too concerned about that. Today, she seems back to her self, smiling, laughing and playing. What a relief to see a smile on this sweet girl's face.

Getting kisses from Auntie Nicole

After Michael got out of training today, we drove to Dallas to meet Nicole and Chad. Despite have to drive in Dallas traffic, which is ridiculous, it was so nice to see them. This is the first time we have seen them since their wedding when Eliza was much smaller. What is funny about this picture above is that shortly after, Eliza dumped most of a warm soup all over Nicole's lap. Sorry ;)

Chad has apparently been watching Dog Whisperer, so when Eliza would get a little fussy, he would use tips that he learned. The above picture shows 'eye contact'. It was entertaining to watch because Eliza just looked at him like he was crazy!

It will be super nice if we can move back to Texas within the next few years so that we can be closer to these two amazing people!
