Beachin' It!

My first few days at the beach have been awesome. I got to see the ocean for the first time....

And take my first trip on a bike with Mommy and Daddy!





Caleb and I played Bumper Boats....

And I've gotten lots of yummy treats and attention. I can't wait to see what the rest of the week will bring!!!

Road Trip



After a LOOONG 11 and a half hour drive down, 5 stops, Blues Clues, and lots of food we finally arrived at Hilton Head. Mommy and Daddy were THRILLED to arrive.



One of our stops was at the fabulous Cracker Barrel where I sampled all sorts of yummies- chicken and dumplings, green beans, mashed potatoes, applesauce and sweet potatoes!! Oh my!
Here I am outside of Cracker Barrel, already showing my Hokie spirit... (by the way, wait till you see what Mommy taught me!!)

Ahhhh, we arrive!! Now I'm living the good life! I love the beach!

Dumb and Dumber

Mommy just gave me a haircut that I'll never live down!!





Striking Resemblance??





I just hope I outgrow it by my first birthday. And I think the title of 'Dumbest' goes to Mommy for not keeping her scissors put away!

Rain, Rain, Go Away

The past few days of rain have been pretty dreary. But I enjoy watching the thunderstorms from the window upstairs!!

Get Up, Stand Up






I stood up for the first time on July 10th! I'm an old pro at this now, but here is a video of me learning the ropes the past two weeks!! Perseverance people, perseverance!

The WMD Picnic

Saturday afternoon we went to visit Pop-Pop and Grandma at Daddy's company picnic.

I got to jump in the moon-bounce...

And meet some of my biggest fans, including: Jen, Tina, Cheryl, Jill, Deborah, and Gina, pictured with me below. (By the way Jen, we'll be looking for you at Fair Oaks Hospital next year!!)

Grandma helped me try my first snow cone (I loved it...)

And my first slice of watermelon (I'm not a fan so much...)

Thanks everyone for loving me up!! I had a great time.

My First Concert




Friday was my first real live concert! We went to see Gonzo's Nose for 80's night at Broadlands Live. I was joined by my friends Reed, Owen, Jackson, Addison, Katelyn, Allie, Dylan and Sawyer. Phew!




The boys got there early to scope out a good spot.

The girls go for a closer look!


While I was busy picking grapes and ripping up paper towels....

Sawyer struts his stuff and stays cool by drinking water.


Then the daddies take over!


You can't see me here, but I'm asleep on Mommy's back...


I wake up in time to see the encore and say good night to everyone. It was a great time, thanks everyone for coming!

Never Leave Home Without It....

Now that I am crawling, I seem to want to take something with me wherever I go. Here are just a few of the things Mommy has caught me carrying around!

Summer Fun with Friends

This summer wouldn't be the same without my buddies. Here are some pictures of us over the past few weeks...

Playing at Pump it Up for Katelyn's 4th birthday party...



Me stealing Owen's toys (he's such a good sport about it though...)




At the park with Owen & Reed...



Me stealing Larlyn's pool toys...


Ben, Owen, and Reed hit the town while all the daddies stuff themselves with Mexican food...


Me and Owen having playtime at the library after our Babygarden class....


Me stealing Owen's toys again....


How I felt after Mommy told me I couldn't steal toys any more...


Splashing in my pool with Owen... well it only lasted for about 2 minutes (I'm getting somewhat scared of the little guy- Maybe I'm nervous he'll come after me for stealing his toys)


So instead Mommy and I watched him from afar from inside the house....

Here I am with Sam, Katelyn, Owen, Allie, and Reed. Mommy is pointing out that I'm not being very polite for the camera! (I am quite dramatic, huh?)



I don't think any of us were ready for this shot- but the flowers looked good so I had to post it....
