my go-to song for annababy is “you are my sunshine”. i’ve pinned a few things here and there to maybe put in her room to reflect this time in her life when i get to rock her and sing songs (ps. it’s almost over). but, when i happened upon this mini-quilt, i knew i would […]
anna
two year (and two month) checkup.
this post is mostly for me. for when, someday, when my kids say, where’s our baby book, i can point them to this blog and they can see all that baby book type information… anna had her two year old checkup this week. it was a no-shot appointment, so that’s always good. for some reason, […]
#winning
so, awhile back, i posted about winning a sweet giveaway. well, after a bit of craziness*, the cool dress has arrived… and anna looks really cute in it. *something happened in the shipment, and it never came. i waited a week or so, then emailed the giver-awayer and she promptly made and sent out another. […]
lately…
here’s my feeble attempt to make up for a lack of updates lately… we celebrated paw paw’s (derek’s grampa’s) 93rd birthday this weekend… kids love cupcakes. since it’s 200 degrees everyday, we’ve had to hit the park early early early in the morning. and isaac can get his fill of jumping off elevated surfaces. the […]
july the fourth
as per our usual, we hosted a bit of a fourth of july get together for some of our pals, before the fireworks lit up our little town… martha and bud (sam, jr.)… sam, sr. is in the armed forces and is currently overseas. so, really, this party was for him. 🙂 the slip ‘n […]
beach miscellany.
i have one last group of pictures that i haven’t been able to categorize into their own posts. pics from around the condo, and then some various activities. playing with isaac’s shell (or shards of shell) collection, while he’s gone. hanging out, early in the morning, watching tv. playing with yo gabba gabba friends. (anna […]
more (lots more) beach…
the rest of our trip was quite sunny. and we went to the beach a lot. a lot lot. i’m not even going to bother to caption these pics.
carnival on the beach.
even though the sun came out, it was still a bit chilly and the beach was a bit soggy. plus, ike had been begging us to go ride the rides at this little mini carnival that runs from memorial day to labor day where main street hits the beach. this ferris wheel seemed to be […]
alligator mania. and other rainy day activities.
on one of the rainy days, we drove to myrtle beach (we were technically in north myrtle), and tried to go to a children’s museum, since we have the reciprocal (free) membership. apparently a lot of other folks had this idea too and there was a 30 minute wait because they were at capacity. and […]
meeting myrtle beach.
if you are my facebook friend, then you are no doubt aware that we’ve been at the beach for the last week. just in case you’re not, i’ll be posting some pics and stories here. 🙂 on sunday, we woke up. loaded up. and hit the road for myrtle beach. the ride seemed incredibly long. […]
