June 2014

June was a fun month (a hard month with the girls -- don't get me wrong -- but a fun month nonetheless)!  We made it to the beach for a long weekend, just the four of us, and stayed in a great condo overlooking the Southport Marina.  Great little family getaway. :)  Mom celebrated her birthday (sorry the girls were away for your birthday morning tradition, Mom!).  We got Lily a cello!  We're renting from Susan, my childhood music teacher -- crazy I got my first cello from her over 25 years ago.  And Lily potty trained this month!  The first week was intense and hit or miss, but she is doing awesome.

Happy 2 months, Charley!!  (9 lbs 7 oz.)

Our cool chicken. ;)

Charley smiles. :)

Lil was quiet in the pantry for several minutes and when I asked her what she was doing she said
"Mommy!  Lily eating sprinkles!" 

Reading the morning paper at Port City. :)

Ice cream dance!

Charley's first boat ride.

Beach girl!

Bald Head.  Our private beach for the day.

Smoothie phone. :)

Grandpa finally got to go swimming with Lil!
Thanks for all the lessons.

Too funny… Lil set her little family up and said "watching tv!".

At Susan's house getting a cello!

Cello in a tutu.  This girl is definitely my daughter!

And Happy Fathers Day to Grandpa and Papa!

She stopped playing with her new friend Ava long enough for a quick pic. ;)
