Waterdog

Our family vacation this year was to Hilton Head, SC. We went the second week of September. It is the perfect time to go. All the kiddies are back in school. So it is less crowded and still warm weather. The only problem was that daddy had to stay home and work. We really missed him but, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do :( We took plenty of pictures for him and chatted every day on the webcam. That made it so much easier for us. Plus took numerous videos so he could see the daily excitement.

As soon as we got to the beach, Macie put her feet in the sand and said "WHAT A MESS!!!"

I thought oh my.... this is going to be a long week. Then she darted off to the ocean and played in the waves for hours. She was jumping in and swimming all over the pool. With her life jacket of course! We swam & swam until she couldn't kick her feet anymore!

A quick over view of the week.... shopping, eating, sunbathing, swimming, carriage ride in Savannah, Paula Deen's restaurant, more shopping, Lawton stables, pony ride, petting zoo, bike riding, Harbour Town Marina, shell searching, eating, pool, beach, relaxing, and shopping.

Whew!! I think I am ready for another vacation! hahaha!!

Finger Painting

First time Finger Painting! She made 3 pictures. I think she would of painted all day if I would of let her :)

I'm 2!!!

Miss Macie had a great second birthday with family and friends. The party was at Nana and Poppy's House. She had a great time bouncing in her bounce house and going down the slide. She only opened 2 gifts and decided that she loved her light up flip flops and took off to play in the rain. Needless to say at 11:00p.m. that night she was playing with all of her wonderful gifts.
Since we had her party a week later than usual Macie got to go to Chuck E Cheese for her pre-birthday party. She absolutely loved it. She played skeeball, whackamole,rode a helicopter and all the other games.
On her actual birthday, Chad and I took her to the Florence Aquatic Center. She loves the water and didn't want to leave.

NEED I SAY MORE

Out-kide AKA OUTSIDE

Easter 2010

We had Grandma Houp over for Mother's Day. She had a great time. She really loved watching Miss Macie. She kept wanting to give her Kisses. Macie wasn't for sure what to think at first but by the time grandma left Macie was yelling... Mawmaw,, Mawmaw

Macie new favorite place & word all the time is outside. She walks around saying,,, Outkide, outkide, shoes,outkide. It really cracks me up. The child knows you must have your shoes on. The hardest thing was for her to realize that she doesn't have to wear a coat most of the time.

She is really into Babies too!! We might see a newborn or even a child that is 5 and she says.. Momma baby or Hi baby. Not only do we have to travel with a purse on her shoulder. She now has to have her baby and B (that is her blankie). Oh well, it is just too cute.

Nana caught her the other day going outside with Nana's heels on. Nana said she clipped and clopped all the way out the door. What can I say... Macie has a thing for fashion.

Macie is answering question about were people are. I will ask her... Where is GIGI?? She will say HOME. Where is Poppy?? TRUCK Where is Daddy??? Work

She also knows where she is going when in the car. Nana was driving and passed Mamaw and Papaw's street and Macie started yelling PAPAW!!! PAPAW!! Then, as soon as we turn down GiGi's Street she says DOOR GIGI because Gigi is opening her garage door. This child is really starting to scare me. She know too much.

Next on the agenda is potty training! Wish me luck!!

Spring has Sprung

As you can tell Miss Macie is ready for Spring!!! She has been rockin her new sunglasses.

I must say she really looked ADORABLE in her Palm Sunday dress!
