Day 220: Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad

Aunt Jane got Daddy a bagel bigger than my head for breakfast this morning to celebrate Mom and Dad's 6th wedding anniversary.
They left me for the night to go to Chris and Bonnie's wedding.
Cary, Aunt Joanne, Mary and Hope came to play at the beach with me while Aunt Jane and Uncle Charlie were watching me. Cary had me hanging out in the sand.
I was hanging out with Hope taking a rest.
Big Smiles while sitting with Cary.

Cary gave me dinner on my new booster seat.

Cary was snuggling with me before bed.
Thanks to everyone who helped keep me occupied while Mom and Dad had a night out. I really had a great time - can't wait to see you again soon.

Day 219: More Beach

We went to the beach again today! I sported my new orange bathing suit. Here I am with mom and dad down by the water. I kept grabbing mom's glasses.
Here I am with my daddy!
Smiling with mom.
Cheese!
Then Aunt Jane gave me a new toy...a yummy one at that.
It didn't take long before I figured out that the rope toy was cherry wonderfulness.
They had to take it away from me once I started to gum it into pieces.
They gave me this sand toy instead - not quite as yummy as the Twizzler, but it worked for the teething.
I was enjoying the towel with all of my toys.
Overall I had a great day on the beach with Mom, Dad, Aunt Jane and Hope!

Day 218: Hope!

Today I got to hang out with my buddy, Hope. She let me play on her real laptop and held me while I sorta ate my dinner. Thanks for playing with me today since we couldn't go to the beach in the rain!

Day 217: Jersey Shore

Daddy, Mommy and I drove up from VA to NJ last night for some time in Spring Lake with the Zankos, Dulleas and Grandma & Grandpa.I had a great time hanging out on the beach, especially in my sun tent.
I was having fun screaming at Hope and Amy.
I wasn't thrilled about having the sun hat on, so they let me take it off as long as I stayed in the tent.
Mommy brought my new beach toys as well as my cool rattle from the Flynns.
After the beach we hung out at Aunt Joanne's beach house with everyone. Amy was playing with me on my blanket.
Later on I was playing with Hope while she ate my hand.

Day 213: Aunt Catie's Shower and Pop is here!

I woke up this morning and hung out with Grandma, Aunt Joanne and Aunt Jane. (BTW - today I am 7 months old!)They entertained me while Mommy got a little extra sleep.
Then at lunchtime we headed out to Tysons for Aunt Catie's Bridal Shower.
Aunt Mair, Aunt Amy, Cary and Megan came in from NJ too! Cary gave me a bottle.
Aunt Catie seemed to really like my gift. She played with me after she opened all of her presents.
Here I am with our family at Aunt Catie's shower.
When we got home, Pop was at the house! He got me a really cool Red Sox shirt from Fenway Park. I showed him my laptop and amazed him with my bouncing ability.
I can't wait to hang out with Pop and Grandma at the beach later this week. See you soon!

Day 212: Aunt Jane, Aunt Jo and Hope are here

Aunt Jane, Aunt Joanne and Hope came today early for Aunt Catie's shower to hang out with me.

Aunt Jane bought me my very own laptop.
I got to hang out on the couch with Mom and Dad with my new laptop.
They also figured out why I make this face in so many pictures! I am preparing for that bright flash all of their cameras make! =)

Day 211: Reunited

Daddy came home this morning! I came down from my crib and he was walking in the door with Grandma.He let me play with his Iphone. Mommy doesn't usually let me do that.
I was so happy to have him home to throw me up in the air and play rough.
He also lets me look at the computer with him - I think he was surprised that I like to type and click now too!
