We've got ourselves a teether!

Yep, it has really started up in the last few days. Blair is now chewing on anything she can get her hands on. She drools non-stop and we've been a bit fussy lately. Poor thing, I know she feels bad, but she really is a trooper. Clearly she's got her Momma's pain tolerance. :)

This week Blair has learned to put toys into her mouth. Last week it was grasping the toys, this week its grabbing the toy and putting it into her mouth. And so it begins!

We spent the long holiday weekend visiting our sweet families in East Texas. Saturday morning, we left for Jacksonville to visit the Cooks. Blair did a great job in the 3 hour car ride! She slept pretty much the whole time and we were able to drive there without stopping. We had a great visit with the Cooks, it was B's first time to meet her Uncle Windol and coustin Kelly! She was a little fussy when we got there and did some fussin', but later relaxed and showed everyone what a good wiggler she is! After leaving the Cooks, we drove further to Tyler.

Travis' grandparents, Granny and GranDad, and his Aunt Lori live in Tyler. We were introducing them to Blair for the very first time. GranDad said that he was the only generation of Wrights that had had the opportunity to hold their great-grandchild! Blair is a 7th generation Texan - very neat!

We had a great visit with them, Blair (although tired and out of sorts) made all kinds of sweet faces with them and was a big girl. She absolutely adores her great Aunt Lori. GranDad made us all a delicious dinner while Blair put on a show of coos and "talking" while we ate. We left shortly after dinner to check into our room so we could get B in bed.

We were back in Katy by noon on Sunday and it was nice to have the whole day relaxing and BBQing. Today we all got up and ran some errands, then had lunch at the new Chuy's that just opened up. Yum!

This afternoon we went over to my parents house to swim. We weren't able to stay long since B was kind of fussy and we knew would be exhausted from being in the pool, but we had a good time cooling off on the very hot day!

Now I have a very sleepy girl laying next to me. The arms are up over her head, stretched out and every once in a while she grunts a little. Bless her little heart. I hope this teething thing doesn't drag on forever (I can hope - right?)!

Happy 4th of July to everyone!
