Seaside

Saturday we left Greenville and made our way to the beach!  We are renting a beach house outside of Pawleys Island.  It is SO nice to get up open the doors and walk down the walk to the beach. I took an hour walk this morning and it was so nice and relaxing!  We spent time in the water. Emma loved jumping waves with her daddy and Erika! Enough talk here's a TON of pictures! 

I think I shall!

It's Only Wednesday.

So I like to use song titles or lyrics for my albums on facebook. I decided to do the same here when I could find one I knew and liked!



This week hasn't been very exciting.  Monday I had my hair colored and had Emma's hair trimmed.  We have to trick Em to even get scissors or Dale around her.  Maddie held her and acted silly while Dale scooted in and snip, snipped!  Just enough to clean up what I call her "rat tail" 

I looked super scary with my "who" hair! 

She doesn't even realize what is going on!! 

Tuesday I had the boys and they were about as sleepy as Em and I were, so we had lunch and then took a nap before heading to the pool.  Em found a crown Justin had bought her and has been wearing it around.  She calls it her hat.

Also, last night at the local Target I found this sip cup.  Em has had one that some friends had ordered from her. I have looked and looked for another one (I never got around to ordering one) I found this one and I'm so excited.  They don't seem to leak and I can strap them to her stroller super easy through the hole in the lid and they don't slip off or out!

(it's the little things people!)
Disclaimer: I do not have neon green walls and yellow counter-tops!  Apparently, the light is harsh in the kitchen! 

Everyday is like Sunday

Another summer weekend is in the books.  Makes me sad that work is just around the corner! 
This morning I drove to a small town about 30 minutes away to take some pregnancy announcement snapshots for a dear friend of mine.  When I got back home we went to my parents to celebrate Dad's birthday.  We enjoyed BBQ and of course birthday cake (which Em LOVED!) ha!

Here is a cute "family" shot. 

Justin and Em enjoying the pool.  She is such a daddy's girl!

Emma "surfing"

Daddy and his cake (and mismatched candles!)

Em and Dad

She LOVES cake!

Last year I took this picture of Emma.

 

 

I decided to recreate it, and here is this year's shot.  Who doesn't love a baby in a washtub?!?

Week-end wrap!

Today is my dad's 69th birthday!  Em can finally attempt to say "Happy Birthday" in Emma speak so she has made the traditional phone call!  We will celebrate with some family pool time tomorrow!

I finished my last day of extra in-service yesterday!  The rain finally stopped and Justin, Em and I went for a very muggy walk after J got home from work.

This morning I was super excited to walk with my friend Traci who was fresh home from the beach!  I think our walk made up for all the days I missed due to rain and work!  Now Em and I are hanging out taking pictures of ourselves her with bed head and me with sweat head while Justin is doing his workout.

Happy Weekend!

Thursday, rain, in-service and NO NAP!

I have a confession, I have taken a nap almost every day when Em takes hers.  I figured I'm on break, why not! 

Today, I served my time for in-service and came home ready to have lunch and nap, BUT Em had already taken her nap.  So instead she is having her afternoon snack (well, Knox is getting most of it since Em is feeding him!)  Sorry, in-service days are pretty boring! Our self portrait from this morning before I left!

Wordless Wednesday...how I spent my morning.
