Life's A Beach, Especially In Sunny South Carolina






Have Sand, Will Eat





This weekend we went to play at the beach. I think it is so funny when the waves bounce me up and down in the water. And it feels so neat when the waves pull the sand out from under my feet. I also like playing with Daddy in the sand. Boy, did Mommy have a mess to clean up when I was done playing.

Eating & Drinking Like A Big Boy at Kiawah Island

After the beach, Daddy & Mommy took me to get some lunch at Kiawah Island. It's fancy schmancy over there, they have frog statues!



Have Fun With Aunt Lisa & My Cousin Jeffrey





We had a very special visitor come to the house today. It's my big cousin, Jeffrey. He is my Aunt Lisa's youngest son. He lives in New Jersey, but he is spending a few weeks in South Carolina before schools starts. He goes to High School and likes to play hockey. I just like to play with cars and trucks and toys like that. I was in a real lovey-dovey mood when they came over and I just couldn't help but High-five and kiss and hug them.

Toga! Toga!

Every night after my bath I like to have a toga party in my towel. Mommy thinks this picture is adorable. I'm not arguing.. I am pretty cute.

Bye-Bye Bowl Haircut, Hello Spike!

After a few months of having a "bowl cut", I wanted a new look. Now I am workin' the spike. All the baby girls in my day care class love the new do'. My teacher told Mommy the other day how I was going around kissing all the girls. That was sweet, but then she also told Mommy & Daddy that I bit someone. Now I am in trouble.








Florida Beach Vacation

The week of July 4th, Mommy & Daddy took me on vacation to St. Pete Beach in Florida. Mommy said she had always dreamed of staying at the Tradewinds hotel, which is right on the beach. It was really neat, because I got to spend time with both family and friends. I hope you enjoy the pictures! I enjoyed posing for them.



My Cousins Are SO Pretty!

I'm just braggin' because they are Soooo Pretty & Nice, too!


Goin' in the Gulf

One of the best parts of staying at a beachside hotel is getting to play in the sand and in the Gulf of Mexico. The water was so warm and clear and my favorite part was being bounced up and down by the waves.





Splish-Splash with Grandma Susan

My Grandma Susan had the whole week off of work and she spent every day with me and Mommy & Daddy. It was so much fun! Grandma let me stay up late!




Daddy Likes Being At The Beach

Daddy always has fun in the sun. He played with me in the pool and then he took part in a belly-flop contest (he didn't win) and he also went down a giant slide!






Secret Baby Conference

It's great being an older cousin. I can not only teach baby Sadie things that I know, but I can also tell her to do whatever I want. At this get-together, we held our baby conference pool side. We had important issues to talk about, like seat assignments at the kiddie table.
Aunt Susan is nearby, so I have to whisper. What I said made Sadie scratch her head in disbelief.
Sadie isn't sure, but I'm happy with our discussion.
Sadie lets me know that she is okay with being the baby. That's right, I'm the big guy!

Uncle Jack & Aunt Susan love to play with me!

Mommy's brother, my Uncle Jack is so nice. He likes to read me books and play with me. Uncle Jack is married to Aunt Susan, she is super sweet too! Aunt Susan always gives me lots of hugs and kisses. They have 2 daughters, Rhianna & Sadie. They are my cousins.
