5 Year Stats
Weight- 45lbs (75th percentile)
Height- 45" (75-90th percentile)
Blood Pressure- 92/58
Hearing- perfect
Vision- 20/25 in both eyes
He also had a finger prick done today to check for things like anemia (this is a test they do at 9 months & again at 5 yrs.) They didn't take that much blood, but had a hard time getting it because his hands were so cold... so it took a while. Afterwards he was acting really weird. He was doing this fake sounding whining, crying, then got pale and his lips turned blue. He told me his belly hurt and that his eyes were blinking (seeing spots), and then dropped to his knees almost passing out. I guess that means he won't end up being a doctor if the sight of blood makes him faint. Love my sweet boy :)

Sea World
This weekend we headed to San Antonio for our first trip to Sea World! The Windoms had invited us to join them for a trip to celebrate Reid's 5th birthday! Since Austin had never been, we thought it would be fun!
On Thursday we met up for donuts before headed out of town & casually made our way to San Antonio (via the outlet mall in San Marcos.) We arrived in time to get settled in our adjoining rooms before heading to a movie! We took the kids to see The Croods at the Alamo Draft House. You order & eat dinner while watching the movie- so fun!
We arrived at Sea World when it opened at 10am on Friday morning & stayed until closing at 6pm! It was a great time- lots of rides, shows, and animals to see! Thankfully it wasn't too crowded, and the weather was perfect! Austin's favorite part was feeding the dolphins and sea lions (mine too!)
After a tiring day we took the boys down to swim at the hotel pool and order dinner. Afterwards we sat around the fire pits and watched a movie (Wall-E) and made smores- such a fun evening! The boys were EXHAUSTED when we retired for the evening.
Saturday morning we took our time getting up and around before heading north to Austin, TX! We decided to try out the food truck parks in Austin- they were great!
Afterwards we got settled into our hotel, took naps, and went to the Round Rock Express game at the Dell Diamond! We had seats in the grass behind the outfield- it was great for families with rowdy boys!!
Sunday we ate a quick breakfast together before Jared, Leah, Reid, and Grant headed back to Ft Worth. We did some plant shopping at our favorite Austin nursery and took a quick drive by our old house before heading home ourselves! Overall a very fun weekend trip- we look forward to our next trip together! :)
