We're Back {Lots of Pictures} and Porter Update

Hey y'all!! We are back and this post is all sorts of crazy unorganized. Probably almost all of you already know my sister's blog but for lots of pictures of our time visiting them just click HERE. Really all these pictures are hers :). Thanks, Amy!
I don't have time to do daily posts/pics so I'll just do a simple review...
Alot of dreams came true for Henry. He got to do almost all modes of transporation! Between the shuttle bus, train in the airport, airplane and boat ride, he was thrilled and was very good for all those experiences. So impressed with him on the airplane!
 How cute is this one piece suit from the Warrix family? Thank You!!
Here the best picture we got after 150+ pictures....Happy Mother's Day, Mom!!
This picture make me smile. Henry is looking so much like BiG BoY lately!! Love it!
 
 My boys together on Mother's Day!
 Cutie Porter
 We took a tour of the riverwalk and Henry LOVED it! It was about 30 minutes long and both boys did excellent!!
 Here is the "meltdown" during the photo shoot. This picture still makes me laugh out loud!
 Porter at the Alamo. He is SUCH a good, laid back baby!!
 Henry warmed up to the pool and we were surprised how fearless he was jumping off the side with Kit catching him. This is a big step for "Mr. Safety" Henry!
 Both times on the plane Porter took a bottle and fell asleep during take off.
 Henry didn't sleep very well in Tx. And his attitude showed it most days that he was just. Exhausted. We gave him the window seat on the plane ride home and he did AWESOME, never making a peep.  This was taken before we left the parking lot at the airport!
 So...Poor Porter. He is SUCH a good baby! About two nights before we came back home Porter was coughing in the middle of the night. He is already much more of a "snorty" baby. He seems to always be congested (sorry bud for getting my sinuses!!). Felt so bad for him. No fever, no screaming fits, eating well, smiling, happy baby! During the day he was happy and his normal laid back self. I was wondering about the possibility of ear infections (both boys have never had any so I didn't know what to look for). Long story short...took him yesterday morning after getting back the night before. One ear infection in Right and start of one in the left and he tested positive for RSV. So, we are getting back into our routine and a "new routine" on meds and nebulizer tx for the next 10 days. He is still such a trooper. Sleeping well and his happy normal self. Wouldn't have guessed AT ALL! We are supposed to be busy all weekend with birthday parties, tea fundraiser at church, nursery Sunday AM and a performance by H Sunday night so that throws a wrench in the plans. Kit & I will have to trade off all weekend but we'll get it done! We just want you better, Porter!!
 Last night Henry and I made a chocolate cake after supper. Let's just say it was bath time after that! ;)

So, that's it. We are back and are so thankful for the sweet hospitality we had from the Wx family!! It was SO great to see you guys and spend time with you!!!!
Miss you all already!!
