11 months Week 3 ~ Swimming Lessons!

I started Swimming lessons at our YMCA this week. I am such a little water baby ~ I loved it! We floated on our back, practiced kicking, scooped our arms, and sang lots of songs! I also learned how to swing my leg up on the side of the pool and climb out.

YMCA swimming!!
"I'm a little pancake flat on my back.." We sing that song & then mommy flips me over to my tummy & flips me back!
Kicking, Kicking!

11 months ~ Week 2 Mother's Day!

This past Sunday was so special because it was Mommy's first Mother's Day. Daddy & I made mommy breakfast and we are going to plant Mommy a vegetable garden. Yum! After my morning nap, mommy & I headed to the park to meet Gramzee, Auntie, Great Auntie, Shelby, & Sky! We had a picnic lunch and then i got to play on the playground. We had such a good time! Gramzee got Mommy a cute sundress. And Auntie surprised Mommy & gave her and Daddy tickets to "A Taste of the Highlands" to go with her & Uncle Brantley. Looks like I get to have a sleep over with Gramzee! Woo Hoo!!

Mommy's little helper!
Yay for Mommy's DAY!

11 months!

I'm starting to take a couple steps by myself - only when someone starts off holding my hands, and then stays right behind me. I usually lose my balance and fall forward. This week was my Grammie & Grandpa's Birthday. They were born on the same day! I didn't get to see Grandpa because he lives in Destin, Florida. We did take Grammie out to breakfast and then came back to my house to play. I also got to see Ansley this week! She came over & I definitely kept her entertained! I had her read me books, play with my toys, and she even fed me lunch! She couldn't believe how much i knew and how big i was!

Tasting my keys before going for a ride!

Happy Birthday Grammie!!

Destin!

My 1st Destin Beach trip!! Gramzee took me & Mommy to the beach for a week during her spring break. It was our girl bonding road trip! I loved the pool and even liked the sand on the beach. After Grandpa got back into Destin from the Masters with Daddy & Uncle Brantley, he came straight to see me. Grandpa couldn't believe how big i was and all the things i could do. He said that i looked exactly like my mommy when she was little (especially my little bald head!).

Destin Beach!
I loved putting my toes in the sand. Mommy had to wash them off really good because i wanted to put my toes in my mouth!
Kisses for Gramzee
