New Jersey

We flew on an airplane to visit family in New Jersey and had so much fun. Here are some of the highlights of our trip...

Going to the Jersey shore
(no we didn't see Snooki...who ever that is.)


We rented a surrey bike.
Mommy and daddy did all the pedaling.


Snuggling...


Playing outside...


Eating cupcakes at our cousins birthday party...


I got a blue cupcake...my favorite.

Britton's is 18 months old...

Mommy tries to get pictures of Britton but he never sits still for very long.

Preschool

I started preschool this week. I had so much fun and really like my teacher, Ms. Gretchen. I'm making lots of new friends too. I love to read and I love to spell. I can spell my first and last name and I'm learning to write my name too. Soon I'll be smarter than my mommy and daddy.


I'm a Preschooler


Always need a silly picture.



Spelling... (press play)

Splash pad

Mommy took us to a fun splash pad. We had so much fun and it was nice to get wet on a hot summer day.

Happy Birthday Daddy

Happy 33rd Birthday Daddy. We love you lots and lots. We forgot to take photos for daddy's birthday so instead I will show you some photos of what happens at our house when daddy is in charge (mommy went to dinner with some friends a few weeks ago).

I see you.

Yes, I am jumping on the bed.

Swim school

This summer, Britton and I took swim lessons. At first, I did not like it. But after a couple days I was really excited to learn how to swim. Daddy had to swim with Britton because he was still too little but I got to swim all by myself (with help from my swim couch). Here we are in action...

Fireworks...

Happy 4th of July. We had an all-american day. Had hamburgers, baked beans, corn on the cob and mac & cheese for dinner (well, I ate the mac & cheese because I don't like the other stuff). Then we lit some firecrackers and sparklers outside. The night ended with sitting in the back of daddy's truck and watching beautiful fireworks high in the sky. What a great day.


Britton loves corn on the cob.


Silly me...as usual.


Mommy, Britton and I...say cheeeese.


Sparklers...don't try this without an adult.


Me with silly bun hair.

Happy Birthday Mommy

We had lots of fun celebrating mommy's birthday. We ate lots of yummy food, got wet at a splash pad and spoiled mommy with lots of hugs and kisses. Mommy said it was her best birthday so far.

Running through the water at the splash pad


That water was tricky, you never know when
it's gonna come out.


Sitting still for a picture . . . but only for a few seconds

Lots of Love

Now that my brother is not really a baby anymore we have lots of fun playing and running around together. Britton loves to give me hugs and kisses. Here we are giving BIG kisses before bedtime.

San Diego

We took a mini vacation and went to the beach in San Diego. We had a lot of fun making sand castles, finding sand crabs and running from the waves. I let me feet get wet but it was too cold to get in the water. Some days we got so much sand on us, we had to take two baths.

Playing in the sand

Britton loved getting dirty. I think it's a boy thing

Silly Britton


Me on a carousel . . . so much fun.
