Odds and Ends and Lots of Sand

I turned 8 months on June 18. I'm getting big and really starting to crawl and roll around. I can now pull myself up, too. Watch out, Mom and Dad!

This post has a lot of new photos. It spans the last 2 weekends. The first weekend we went to the beach. This past weekend, I went to "Uncle" Dan's summer solstice party.

Let's start out with the easy favorites . . . more bath photos!



Mom says that I look particularly sweet here. I'm testing out my motor skills on the floor at the beach condo.







On to the beach!


Thanks to Mason and Wade for lending me the beach toys.




Ah, the sun, the surf, and the sippy cup.



Uncle Rhett, I don't know if I'm ready for a long board yet. This surf is enough for me.




I really worked up an appetite at the beach.




Here I am crashing Mom and Dad's romantic dinner down by the water.








Here we all are back at the condo, hanging out on the balcony. Daddy was being silly.









I need better hairspray to stand up to these coastal winds!




Now . . . on to Uncle Dan's party!

Let's go crazy!




Bring on the chocolate cake!




Home at last!









Take care, everybody. There's a rumor going around the house that Oma is coming soon. I've got some new books ready for us to read together.
