Summer Fun



Happy Birthday!   I am a little behind with the posting but Jude has had a crazy summer.  Lots of fun and lots of pictures.  I can't believe how quickly a year has passed.  Jude is growing and changing everyday.  He is finally sleeping all night (don't want to jinx it), talking and repeating everything (better be careful), and is really not too interested in walking.  He will stand by himself but doesn't care to take that next step - crawling is way more efficient. 


Late night birthday cake - he was a little too sleepy and didn't really enjoy his cake.
Happy 4th of July - Jude with his grandma's.  Does it get much better?
On Jude's official birthday we celebrated at the Mont.  Starting early with the swirls.  He looks like he has already had a couple.

Jude invited friends and family to celebrate his birthday with snow cones, cupcakes, and a water park.  
This boy loves the splash pad.  Lucky for Jude (and his mom) it is close to home.
Can't get enough
Uncle Ethan, it's your turn.

Again, not too excited about the cake.  Um Dad, can I go back to the water?
Jude took his first trip to South Padre Island.  The frog slide is a long standing Troutt tradition.  Aunt Chloe got him started early.  Hey where is Chloe - probably waiting her turn for the frog slide.

It took Jude a couple days to warm up to the sand, but by the end of the week he was loving it! The water too.


Jude spent about half the vacation sleeping on the beach.  This boy knows how to vacation.
Mom, is that my margarita or dads?
By the end of the car trip Jude was getting a little CRAZY...
and then a little MAD. Who can blame him.  12 hours in the car is too much anyone.  He was a trooper and did well overall - of course, no pictures of that.

Jude checking out his new Monkey Quilt from Great-Grandma Marilyn.  He loves to kiss the monkeys.

Hopefully more pics to come soon.  Hope everyone is enjoying the last little bit of summer.
