On the mend
So the trip to San Antonio was great up until we headed home. We were coming through downtown Dallas around 10:30pm and Avery got sick; three times in the car. It took us an hour to get home and the poor little thing was sick up into the wee hours of Wednesday morning. We both slept in the master bathroom floor all night. It was so sad. She slept all day Wednesday and ran a low grade fever and seemed to be fine on Thursday minus the fever. When I got her up on Friday she had got sick in bed. Talk about feeling like a terrible mother. Friday also brought Jason home sick from work. By this time I had already disinfected the house twice, the car, carseat, camera bag, pack-n-play bag, the car TV, and about five loads of laundry. She acted fine Friday and got sick again Saturday night. By this time I thought this was a joke. What in the world was going on. Sunday morning we took her to the doctor and she had some major swelling in her right ear, but the doctor said it was a stomach virus. We left with ear drops and a prescription for the ear. Just when I think we are all out of the clear, I woke up Monday morning at 12:58am to be exact, in a Houston hotel, throwing up every hour till 5am. Please let this be the one and only time this happens to this scale. I know this is one of many in the years to come, but really.
A trip down 35
Jason and I took Avery to San Antonio to see lots of things: Sea World, The Texas Capitol in Austin, The Riverwalk, and of course The Gristmill and San Marcus Outlet Mall. The Gristmill and Outlet mall was the very first trip we took after having Avery. It was only an hour and a half from our house in Houston and I was still not feeling very good from my headaches so it was hard to enjoy. This time we had a blast! I am really bad about choosing pictures so I tried to pick my favorites. If there is one thing I love about my husband, it is his love for the camera along with everything else! Even if I complain about it sometimes, I truly love having all the memories to look back at!
Avery discovered the ......whatever you call this thing (baggage carrier!).......and the elevator. These are now her new favorite things when we go to hotels! And here lately we have gone to a lot of them.
Waiting for the gate to open! I am not sure who is more excited....me or her! I get excited about everything though.
Tired of waiting.
Mommy and daddy busted through some crowds to get to the Shamu show first. Momma bear was taking Avery to the main attraction at all costs!
I got teary-eyed seeing how excited Avery was, even though she had no idea of what was going on. I love that we can do these things for her and with her. I cannot imagine what my emotions will be when we take her to Disney World for the first time. I will be an emotional wreck!
Mommy and baby Shamu
Mommy and baby Shamu kissing!
Sesame Street Splash area! Avery loved this and it was perfect for kids and babies. When we got hot throughout the day, this is where we headed.
Cute little legs!
Did not like the characters what so ever.
Trying to escape.
She did however love watching the show! Elmo!
The line was too long to wait just for her to try to escape again so I just took the picture!
She loves this whale of Shamu! Takes it everywhere.
Not five minutes after getting it, she passes out with Shamu.
Petting the dolphins
We watched the aquarium feeding! Too cool!
Future Tri Delta!
Pose
Getting ready to watch one of the coolest shows, Azul! We took a few pictures but for the most part watched the dolphins, Beluga whales, and world class divers.
My favorite picture! She looks like a big girl holding her Shamu and posing.
Bye Sea World! Until next time.
Avery went to the toy Alamo.....
.......and the real Alamo! Mommy trying to get her to cooperate.
So she takes off running. This is the picture I was talking about in my 4th of July post!
Happy 4th of July 2011! I'm outta here!
Mommy loves the Alamo and thinks that if you go to San Antonio you must at least go by there. I have never gone to SA and not gone by the Alamo!

Last stop, The Capitol in Austin.
Such a cool chandelier; look at the lights!

And we left with a bang! A trip to 6th Street (in the car)! No the real bang came on the way home when Avery got sick in the car. Post to follow later.
