Little comparison before I go

Thought I would post some pictures from Zoe's first beach trip, she was 10 months old and compare them to her 2nd beach trip, she is 22 months old. I will post new beach pics when we return. I am for real gone this time, I officially start my vacation right now. Stay tuned. Tootles!!

Finally a vAcAY aWAy!!

It is finally vacation time. I must say toodles for now as I will not be opening a computer for 6 long and glorious days. We are headed to Panama City with all and I mean all of Bryan's family, just kidding, just his parents, Grandmother, Sister, Aunt/Uncle, Cousin/her husband, their kid and us!! I will miss you guys and will have to play catch up for many, many days when I return but I will return with TONS of pictures of Miss Zoe and her 2nd beach trip. I hope all of you have a great week and weekend!!

22 Monthday came and went!!

I am playing catch up once again. My baby girl turned 22 months and I am just now documenting. This is also a Memorial Day weekend catch up post as well. I will let pictures speak words for me as I'm not up for a long post today. In the pictures are Zoe and her friend Malena. We spent the weekend with the Hollis's at their cabin in Tiger Georgia close to Tallulah Falls Georgia. It rained all weekend but we still managed a couple of hours at the lake and one day we got enough sunshine to put the girls in a little pool for a bit. Malena was not digging Zoe splashing her. When she would cry, Zoe would cry. We even tried separating them, each had their own pool. They cried when they were put together in a pool but then they cried when they were separated. We finally gave up and decided it was nap time at this point. We were able to relax a bit and that was nice.
Also in the pictures are Zoe and her friend Avery at Avery's 1st Birthday party. We had a fun weekend spending time with our great friends and celebrating her birthday.
There is a picture in here of Zoe. The girl cracks me up. She found my strapless bra the other day and wanted to wear it. Bryan tied it on her. Then she found a pair of my shoes (she loves, loves to play in my shoes), she looked so funny. In the picture she even looks like she is posing, seriously cracks me up. No worries she didn't stay in my bra nor my shoes for long. I am trying to keep my high heel shoes put up where she can't reach them but from time to time I forget and leave them out, she always seems to find them!!
Also, one more funny thing happened. Yesterday Bryan, Zoe and I went to our community pool after work. I was able to get off early. Bryan got Zoe ready while I got myself ready. Him and Zoe went to the pool first and then I joined them. I about fell on the ground laughing when I got there. Zoe looked like a summo wrestler and could barely walk. Just look at the pictures of her by the pool. Notice the front of her and the back, can you guess what is going on in those pictures. Yes, that's right folks, Daddy put a pull up on Zoe rather than a swim diaper. I was snorting I was laughing so hard, poor baby, I am glad I got there when I did. She was waddling along and looked pitiful. I quickly changed her diaper and back in the pool she went. Bryan will not be able to live this one down for a long time!!

I have a question

Sleeping attire in the summer on a baby/toddler, what do I do? I've still had Zoe sleeping in pj pants, socks, t-shirts (short and Long) because she still does not know how to use her blanket other than cuddling with it or sleeping with it under her head. We keep the temperature set at 77 in the house but I still worry about her getting cold. I am afraid to let her sleep without socks because I don't want her little feet to get cold. Last night I went in to cover her up (at least I am using a thin blanket) and her little arms were like ice. Her room gets very hot by morning time though, she has two big windows that face the sun once it comes up that heats up her room quickly, trust me, I slept in her room the other night and about died from the heat in the morning time, very stuffy. So what do I do? Her room is cool at night but hot in the morning. How should I dress her? I don't want her to get cold but at the same time, I don't want her to be hot either. Decisions, Decisions. Any suggestions?

AND NO, I NEVER FELT SAFE ENOUGH TO PUT THE BUMPERS BACK IN HER CRIB. I WAS A SCARDY CAT. SHE IS SO USE TO THEM NOT BEING IN THERE NOW THAT THERE IS NO NEED.

Love these pictures from Mother's Day!!
