breakfast, mini mowmow & lottie sue and harlan at the beach

I took these photos early today during breakfast, Lottie Sue was happy happy happy.

and uh oh, where did she go? we are still playing
the ifican'tseeyouthenyoucan'tseeme game

Matt and I are happy to know that baby boy is looking great so far! We've had two anatomy ultrasounds and they don't see any head problems like Miss Thang. I can finally feel somewhat confident in this pregnancy for the boy, my nerves have been a little stressed but I'm feeling good now! Check him out! These photos are from last Friday, the first one looks like he's sticking his tongue out. What a joker!

sup playas?

smell my feet, give me something good to eat

And here we go with the photo overload section of the post. We went to San Destin over Memorial Day with the Apples. We had so much heavy rain the first day and 1/2, I thought the sun would never come out - but it did and thank goodness. And Matt was lucky enough to catch the horrible stomach bug I had the day before we left (big shout out to Sydney and Megan for helping with Lottie Sue - I was worthless) and spent two days in bed. Nice. BUT we still had fun once the rain went away and Matt was all better.

Lottie Sue and Harlan got along very well, we had a few fights and bites but for the most part they were great together. Instead of my gabbing on and on, I'll just show you.

We went over to Mike's parent's house for dinner one night. Within 2 minutes of arrival they found the pool and were stripped down. They stayed in there the whole time.

water babies

Harlan started blowing bubbles and Lottie Sue thought that was hilarious. The first photo is them enjoying a laugh over it then the next is their bubble symphony.

it doesn't take a lot to entertain 2 year-olds

If it got quiet in the condo you could bet they were playing on the phones. I asked them who they were calling and it was either BB or GranBunny.

i would hate to see the long-distance bill
if the phones were actually plugged in

Here are some beach photos from one day, Harlan WAS NOT a fan of any part of his body touching the sand for a day or so. He would literally crawl on you like a monkey if he feared his feet were going to touch sand. But he got over that eventually and was all over the place.

feel free to post comments about matt's hat

lottie sue with her shovel

harlan wanting to go back to the chairs so he would be out of the sand

all she needed was a shovel and she was set

These were taken one evening at sunset.

i tried to get a good one but it was impossible,
i like this one better i think

Here are a few of the kids running around, playing with sticks.

all together now...awwwwww

The next two photos represent life with a 2 year-old.

wait, where are you going please?

This is a great three-part shot. I don't know why Lottie Sue was bullying Harlan, who knows.

ready to rumble

Here is Lottie Sue shoving her face full of wafers on the way home.

nom nom nom nom nom nom nom nom

We went up to the lake this past weekend to visit with BB and GranDaddy. And I am serious when I say that Lottie Sue was in the pool in less than one minute of arrival. I had to hold her down to put her bathing suit on.

putting on my sunglasses that she broke eventually
(pair #2 in less than one week)

a very happy water baby

splish splashing around

still with the knockers on a golf cart ride

I leave you with these photos of Lottie Sue yesterday. It was nap time and she wanted to make her own bed instead of going to her room.

odd choice for a nap location but to each his own

please note that her eyes are closed, what an actress

June is birthday month fo sho - today is Mike, tomorrow is GranBunny, Thursday is Megan, Friday is Lottie Sue with BB and PaPaw having a birthday next weekend. Also Holly and Jack Case both have birthdays next week. Phew!
