Springtime in Texas!

I took my first run since having Barrett (make that since getting
pregnant with Barrett) this week while pushing Landry in the stroller
to enjoy all of the gorgeous flowers in bloom right now

It's finally springtime in Texas!  Typically our big wisteria arbor blooms in early March but it finally popped this week now that the weather is warming up.

The weather and blooms were a nice welcome after a long week last week.  For starters, Barrett had a major bug.  He was running a very high fever for a couple of days that had us very nervous.  Luckily he got over it quickly and is back to normal and doing great.

His bug coincided with a huge home install -- of course, Murphy's law, right?! -- that had me directing my assistant and movers via phone and text on day one while I was at the doctor with the little guy to make sure everything was ok.

The three day install turned out fabulously and my clients are thrilled with the results.  We still have some follow up work to complete but I'm so proud of this house and can't wait to add it to my new site!  I launched a simple site last month at www.cobbinteriors.com.  I need to shoot several projects that I've completed over the past year but it has a good mix of rooms to get a feel for what I've been up to recently.

Last week we kept up our work/play balance.  I'm still taking Fridays off to spend with Barrett while Landry is in school.  Last week I met Jaclyn for breakfast with the little guy.  After I picked Landry up from school we met Paula and the twins for a fun play date.  Paula and I enjoyed a glass of wine outside while the kiddos played in the grass and munched on cookies.

Saturday we had a birthday party for our nanny's grandson and Sunday she had another party for her friend Owen.  Both parties had bounce houses and Landry loved it.  She had never been in one before.  It was very comical at first watching her figure out the whole balance thing but by the end of the second party she was hooked!

Sunday afternoon we were supposed to go to our friends' annual Easter egg hunt on their family's ranch.  But it got rained out last minute so we holed up inside and entertained Landry with finger painting projects, egg decorating and some treats from her birthday party favor bags.

Landry is becoming more and more fun every day.  She's starting to string together small sentences and can understand just about anything you say.  She's a big copy cat, too!  I love being able to communicate with her, but I feel so much responsibility now from watching my words to helping her put together thoughts to make her point.

She's obsessed with playing in her new play room and riding her bike outside.  She's also very fond of a neighborhood cat we've coined "Fluffy" and looks for her out our front door window every afternoon.  There's no doubt she'll be asking for a pet as soon as she knows how!

Barrett is also changing by the day.  He's huge!  He's eating six ounces a feeding, which is more than Landry ever ate at one time.  He smiles like crazy and coos when you talk to him.  He finally slept through the night this weekend!  He's done it again once but otherwise wakes up once usually around 3:30 a.m.  I'm so used to it now that it's old hat but I'm very much looking forward to cutting those out of my daily routine.

Speaking of, Michael and I are headed to Mexico for some down time later this month (hello, sleep!).  Last minute we decided to book a little getaway while my mom is in town visiting.  We are so excited!

When we get back my dad flies in with my grandparents for a fun-filled family week.  We're taking them all over town as well as to the lake house for some relaxation and fishing.  I can't wait to hang with everyone and just enjoy some quality time with my loved ones.
