Poolside

The other day I got to go to the pool for the first time with Sawyer!! Mom was scared I wouldn't like the cold water, but I ended up surprising her! I loved it! At first I was very serious, but after I got a grip on my surroundings, it was all fun and games. I loved when Mom swam with me while she blew bubbles in the water, splashing the water with my hands, and kicking my feet at the same time (Mom swears I am going to be a butterflyer)!

Getting all lubed up!

Almost ready!

Sawyer, I love your gear!

I decided to go with the one-piece this year!

Mom putting yet more sunscreen on me!

Finally in the water!

Amazed with this huge bathtub

Let's come back again soon!

A few weeks ago my Auntie Amanda came down from Chicago. It was the first time I had seen her since Christmas (believe it or not)! We had a wonderful time, and as always, the visit went by way too fast! Luckily, in a few weeks, my family and I are flying up there to visit all of 'Chicago'. I can't wait to meet everyone! Mom is preparing me by reading 'Good Night Chicago' everyday. I can't wait. Stay posted~my next post will be from the 'Windy City'!

Take me, I'm yours!

Upside down baby!

I love playing on Grandma and Grandpa Scooter's bed

Still crawling (and getting better at it)!

Summer 2009 Has Officially Begun!

What's new?! Well, I'm officially 'on the move'! I'm crawling here, there, and everywhere. Even though I'm not using my legs too much, I use the 'wounded soldier crawl' to get everywhere I want to go. My mom and dad purchased some big, colorful tiles to go in the living room so I can have a bunch of room to practice. They are pretty cool, but I thought the big box they came in was even better!

Here I come!

Watch out!

Baby in a box!

Peek-a-boo!

Such a happy little girl!

Then, last weekend we came into Atlanta for a visit. While there, we got to go to the Highlands festival. We had a great time. I really enjoyed the music, and Mom and Grandma liked looking at all the arts and crafts. It was also fun to see my Uncle Mike!
