Hurst Family Visit





Matt's mom and dad are in town taking care of Weston while Amber goes back to work for the last couple weeks of the school year. This weekend, Matt's brother, sister-in-law, and nephew also came in town to meet Weston for the first time. Weston loved being held by each and everyone of his family members. What a blessing to be loved by so many people!

Astros





Weston attended his first Astros game. He was alert and wide-eyed the entire game, just taking everything in. We will definitely be taking him to more games in the future. Hopefully the next game he attends a game the Astros will actually win.

1 Month Old


Weston turned 1 month old on Tuesday. He is now spending 4-6 hours per day wide awake. During those 2 hour wakeful stretches he coos, smiles, focuses on objects and swats at toys (we're not sure if the last achievement is intentional or just coincidental). At the moment, Weston's favorite thing to look at is the ceiling fan in the living room. He's still having a little trouble letting Mommy and Daddy get more than 3 hours of sleep at a time. Hopefully he'll be able to sleep for longer stretches real soon; otherwise, Mommy and Daddy might permanently remain in a zombie-like state. But, regardless of the amount of sleep we get, we are enjoying every minute of Weston.

Crawfish 101




Weston attended his first crawfish boil. Daddy instructed him in "Crawfish Eating 101". Also, Weston had his first playdate.

Play Time




Weston is enjoying his play mat (courtesy of his Aunt Macy). He's learning to play with the giraffe and look at himself in the mirror. We're working on getting him to like playing on his tummy (we want to develop those essential skills for crawling ;)!).

Weston Goes Green


In an effort to do his part, Weston is sporting his organic cotton onesie for Earth Week.

Dressed Like Daddy!


We went to a barbeque at Rob & Lori's and decided that Weston and Daddy needed to dress alike. Both wore their plaid shorts and beach shirts. (Thanks, Aunt Brooke, for the awesome shorts!)

Discovery Green






We recently took Weston to see Houston's new park, Discovery Green. He slept for most of the trip, but we managed to snag him from his carrier for a few pics.
