Cruisen

We got to go on a super fun vacation with my parents and Dave & Mandee
The super fun vacation was cruisen through the Caribbean!
DAY 1 started with the emergency drill to the muster station.

DAY 2 was a day at sea so we spent the day exploring the ship and doing some fun activities

DAY 3 we stopped at Cayman Islands where we did some SCUBA at Sting Ray City and Tarpan alley.

DAY 4 we had a most excellent breakfast then headed off to Fantasy Island resort in Honduras.

this crazy monkey kept threatening to bite me when I tried to pass to look at the parrots with Dave.

Mandee and Dave celebrated their anniversary that day!

DAY 5 we taxied and ferried over to Hidden Worlds resort in Cosumel

We got to do some sweet zip lines...

go on the bumpiest jeep ride ever...

and explore awesome caves!

DAY 6 doing king of the world shots on another at sea day

DAY 7 we snorkeled and the guys fished at the beach in the Bahamas

We came home to find our baby had grown two teeth!

Happy Easter

Sam got his first Easter basket

and he had a ball with it!

Mostly pulling everything out

and playing with the basket :)

Grandma Kathy got to hang out with Sam while we got SCUBA certified!

thanks for watching him Matt, Jason, Heather, Ashlyn, & Grandma!

Sam enjoyed the hunt too.

We love our baby soo much, especially his chub!

Happy Half Birthday!

6 Months

I can't believe my baby is 6 months old!

He is: laughing and dancing to music or tongue clicks

rolling around and scooting

loving to slobber all over his toys

LOVING bananas

So cute and loving to anyone willing to hold him and give him attention!

Ha Ha Ha

Camping

We had so much fun getting stinky & dirty roasting hot dogs and marshmallows with Mike & Amber's fam, and sleeping in our nice cozy tent this weekend!

Sam got a little scared for part of the night, but overall he did pretty good for his first time sleeping out.

Sam looked so cute in his beenie that our good friend made for him. Thanks Jess!

Happy St. Patrick's

I celebrated the day by making this Lucky cookie for Taylor.

Yes, I made one for myself too, but it didn't last long enough for a picture. :)

And Sam got to wear his Elvin archer outfit!

1,2,3... SCUBA!

Over the past couple of weeks we have been doing our SCUBA certification!

It has been so fun to get all decked out in all the equipment and swim around a pool.

We can't wait to go in the ocean, then to the Caribbean.

5 Months!

Sam is growing like crazy! He is getting more and more interactive and eating EVERYTHING! His toy, hands, and feet are his favorite. He started eating rice cereal and he love to grab the spoon and feed himself!

Cookies!

I know I know it's way late, but I had these pictures of all my nieces and their valentines cookies, and I thought I should post them. We had fun on Valentines day decorating and eating these yummy cookies & celebrating the Chinese New Year!

happy anniversary!

2 YEARS!

Taylor, being the sweetie that he is, ditched out on school for the evening so we could celebrate our two year anniversary by stuffing our faces with way too much food at the Casino Mirango buffet!
