We finally got to see the boys!!!

We delivered our load in El Paso and Jen picked us up from a parking lot where we left our truck. Both the boys were a little shy at first, but warmed up to us within minutes. Maverick has grown so much and his hair is blonder than ever. Bailey impressed us with his growing vocabulary and showed off how smart he is by naming the alphabet letters for us. Maverick made Pop's day when he crawled over to him and climbed up on his lap, then played with his hat and glasses. We took them to Toys R Us and got them a wagon (more for Mommy, I think). At least now she can pull them all over the neighborhood without having to carry one or both of them home. And, of course, we had our Rudy's BBQ. It all ended too soon, but we will see them again in Myrtle Beach in just a week, so we can start looking forward to that. Bailey's answer to everything is "no" but when we got back to our truck, Jen asked if he wanted to get in Pop's big truck and to our surprise, he answered "yes". So we let him climb up in the cab for a few minutes. He loves Mack on the Cars movie, so I guess he enjoyed getting inside a real truck. But our truck was saying, "Mack?" "I'm an International, for durn sake!" Pop is still talking about how Bailey blew us kisses and said "Bye, Pop!" over and over as they left the parking lot. I'm just glad they only wanted a wagon. Pop would have bought one of everything in the store if they had asked for it. Hope they don't start talking before they get to Myrtle Beach!!! I just know Jen is saying, "Bailey, say Titan, Nissan Titan." LOL We enjoyed seeing Jake, too. Kirby hadn't seen him since Maverick was born. Hope we get to see him again during the holidays this year, along with all our other relatives in Texas.
