Travis is 1 year old!

Travis is 1 year old today! It's amazing to think that 1 year ago today our little man came into this world. What a blessing! He had to go see the doctor for his 1 year check-up today and got 3 shots! :-( But the rest of the day was great and he tried a LOT of new food at his birthday dinner at Kaneyama Japanese Restaurant. He started off with some chicken teriyaki, quickly advancing to miso soup, vegetable tempura (sweet potato, eggplant), culminating in the waiters singing Happy Birthday and LOVING the vanilla ice cream with banana tempura.

Carrie's Graduation

Travis and Imelda went with Anjie to see their good friend Carrie graduate in Wichita Falls. It was a fun car ride with Spanish nursery rhymes and it was great to see Carrie.

Travis Trying to Keep Spirits Up at the Hospital

November was a very hard month for the Santos family. Travis had fun with family and tried to keep Grandma's and the rest of the family's spirits up as much as could be done.

Dia de los Muertos Celebration

The Dia de los Muertos Celebration on Main Street in Houston was fun. Lots of traditional dances from Mexico, neat artwork. and pan dulce.

Museum of Natural Science and new teeth!

Travis had fun with Mom and friends at the museum, particularly at the butterfly exhibit. He is also sporting his first 2 teeth at 10 months with two more about to come in.

Texas State Fair 2008

Big Tex was pretty cool, but that turkey leg was awesome! Travis couldn't get enough of it. I guess the turkey leg that pregnant Imelda ate the previous year at the Fair left a mark.

Spending Time with Grandma

Travis enjoyed sharing a banana with Grandma then had fun trying to grab her water bottle.
