Going Putt Putting'

Waiting for daddy to return with the goods for Putt Putting!

Beach Bummin'

By today we were all exhausted from the going to the beach, pool, eating and shopping. Tough life right? And you feel so sorry for us. Poor SKV didn't enjoy the beach today for being so tired. We had already hit the pool all morning and the beach was our second half of the day. She ended up trading the beach for a big nap-us too!

YummmmmO!

Best dinner! Stuffed and happy!

Best Beach day

So far today was out best beach day yet. Crowd was super small and the grandparents went with us. ECV seemed to have a big time-she sat on sand and played after dragging both gparents around.

Barefoot Landing

We always take one night to hit Barefoot landing. Here are our pictures from this years visit. We ended the night with some yummy Maggie Moo's ice cream-good call grandparents!!

Cruising

ECV is a woman in charge these days but we managed to get her to stroll while we visited Barefoot Landing.

SAND!

In the past two weeks, SKV has ditched her grass issue and sand issue!! (insert wild celebration here!)

Two Sundays ago she was outside with
Mama V, ECV and me. She told us she was going to practice walking in the grass, took of her shoes and did it! She did note she still didn't like wet grass-but honestly, who does?!

Then Saturday upon arriving we went to the beach and she refused her sand shoes and walked in the sand without fuss. Needless to say we were very happy for her-little fears going away!

ECVs Feet Hit the Sand!

It's been almost 17 months in this world and those sweet little feet have finally hit the sand! She may not have known what to think but so far she's enjoyed walking around, digging and splashing
the water.

Atlanta 2012

So much to do and so little time. But we covered a lot of ground!
Aquarium, Dolphin Show, Deepo Show, CNN Center, Olympic Centennial Park, Water show, State game, family time and more!

Aunt Beth ad Uncle Mike's

When planning our trip to GA to see the Wolfpack play (get spanked we later watched) Uncle Mike and Aunt Beth offered us a spot at their house. Boy was that the best thing ever! Sidney Kate got to explore Blake and Benjamin's rooms and old toys and meet Scarlett, their super sweet dog.
We had a quick trip but it was really fun. Maybe we will get to return one day!

Painting Class

Sidney Kate and I went to an art class before vacation to paint a little something for her room. She created her very own master piece thanks to my first grade teacher, Mrs. Poole, who now has a cool art place in downtown Pilot. It was tough, as always, to watch her do things left handed-I'll get over that one day. :)

Personal drawer

ECV has her own drawer full of kid spoons, pacifiers and medicine droppers. She took it over when we learned it calmed the fuss. She's still digging around making sweet messes.
