Dryer Fun

The other night I was dong some straighting up. I couldn't find pax. I called his name and finally he answered back. I just mainly followed his giggles. Upon entering the laundry room, I saw the dryer door was open. I had found my little pac-man..lol He was just chilling in there and eating his snack and giving daisy some too. You can see her head in one the pictures. I guess that was his little hiding spot.

What mom, I am just eating my snacks

Love you:)

1st Day of Preschool

Today pax started back to preschool. He walked in like he knew exactly what he was doing. We washed his hands and he spotted a beta fish. That's all it took,he was to busy for me..lol He didn't shed one tear which was great. Although I wanted him to miss me a tad..lol First day was a success. Looking at the below pictures makes me tear up. I can't believe how much he has changed in 1 year. He looks so little and still babyish in the first picture but in the next picture man does he look like a big boy. Ok, enough I am going to cry..

Pax and His Mammaw

We are so very lucky that his great grandmother keeps him until Joe gets off. Those 2 have a special bond and they both look forward to seeing each other. Pax runs to her arms every morning,it's so cute. We are very blessed to have her:) He is only there about 3 hours a day so neither one gets to burnt out. They feed the birds and water plants together. Pax is so very lucky to have this chance. P luck that he has 3 great grandmothers and 1 great-great grandmother to love on him:)
We had to send 3 pictures to school for pax. So we sent the below, a family picture and pax with the dogs.

The final Day

Our last day on the beach was by far my favorite. Joe and I laughed and just had the best time. We didn't do anything different on the last day, we just made that day a GREAT one:) We had to surpass all the other days:) After a loooooong day on the beach we went and ate. We picked this place on the water and it was so good and worth the wait. We waited almost a hour but there was plenty to look at and drink..lol
We went to the outlet mall. Man, did we rack up. It was Alabama tax free weekend,too..J and pax got way more than I did. I just couldn't find a lot and I was really looking for winter stuff. They just didn't have a lot of that out. I still walked away with some clothes and shoes:)
After shopping we went and played a little miniature golf. This is a must activity while at the beach. Joe and I always do it and this time was no different. Might I add that I WON!!!!
That is it for the vacay pictures. It was a wonderful trip but we missed P soooo much. In a few weeks another adventure awaits:)

Me burnt a tad..ha/ha

All of our pictures we took our self so they are not great but oh well

Beach Day 3

Day 3 was just like day 2 we stayed on the beach all day. Although we did sleep in pretty late on day 3. Man, did it feel good. Sleeping in is such a luxury when you have kids. Oh, the small things:) We had a great time jumping waves and walking down the beach. We also chilled on the beach drinking some drinks and just talking. We saw some sting rays and of course the pesky jelly fish. Luckily neither one of us got stung. We did see some people that weren't so lucky though. One little girl got it bad and you could hear crying from way down the beach.
It was a cloudy day but the sun ended up coming out after lunch. Fun day!!!
We went and ate with my dad and his friends on night 3. Dad was down there with some of friends, funny how it worked out. After dinner Joe and I headed to some shops to find little man something.

Part of our condo, couldn't get the other 3 building in one shot. You get the point..lol

The walk down to the beach, so pretty!!


Before we left for dinner. My camera fogged up every time.

Day 2

We couldn't wait to hit up the beach. Oh, how I missed the beach. Seeing the beach is pure bliss..The beach just amazes me and makes me wonder how people question GOD he is amazing!!! I mean who else could create such beauty. The noise of the waves crashing, can we go back?? lol
We did nothing all day but sit on the beach. Well we played in the water too. It was so much fun. After the beach we headed up and got ready for dinner. I will post those later.

A cool shark someone made, it was shark week while we were at the beach


Nice view from the balcony

Day 1-Vacay just the 2 of US

The hubby and I had a trip just the two of us for our anniversary. We missed p like crazy but we truly had a blast. We left on a Tuesday night and stayed in Biloxi,MS. We stayed at the nicest hotel/casino. We weren't there long. Well long enough to lose some money.lol We woke up Wednesday and finished our drive to Gulf Shores. Once there we picked up our groceries for the stay. After that we headed to the condo got checked in and walked around to check out the surroundings. It was so nice. By this time it was time to go eat. We found this place called Wolf Bay Lodge right on the water. It was awesome!! We watched several boats come in and enjoyed a nice breeze. The best part we had a awesome dinner that we truly enjoyed.

Hubby and his lobster.

Let's Bowl Baby

We were going through some stuff and came upon this bowling set. P had gotten it for his birthday but was still a little young for it. We got that bad boy out and put it to use. Honestly I forgot all about the bowling set. P loved it!! It was a nice little surprise. It keep him busy for a good while. He has had the best time with it. The hubby wants to take him bowling for real with the bumpers but I think he is still to young. We shall see though. For now bowling in the living room works just fine. Of course he is too cool with the shades.

Bowling with his cool shades

I don't have time for pictures, I am busy

This should have gone first oh well. Let's Bowl Baby!!

Last Zoo Pictures

These are the last of the zoo pictures. I saved the best for last. P loved playing in the water, I mean LOVED!! There was a big temper tantrum thrown when it was time to get out. He cried all the way to car and then some. P thought his little world was over.lol At least the time in the water was blast. Him and daddy stayed in there about 30 minutes. Oh good times at the zoo.
Hopefully this week I can get our beach pictures on here and Joe's birthday pictures.

Daddy and P

Zoo Fun Once Again

Before the hubby and I went on our getaway we went to the member night at the zoo. It was so much fun but man it was super HOT!!! Pax loved the animals and especially the water fountains. We should have just stayed at the water fountains all night. Mimi and Papa went with us and we all really enjoyed the night. It's really neat being at the zoo at night. The animals seemed to be more active,so that was cool to see.
I am super behind on the blog but I will be catching up here soon.

We can not get a good family picture. This is the best we got. P is either not looking or like below hand are interfering with something.

Papa and P trying to catch the fake snakes..P loved this little activity.

random

This post is random. Not a lot going on. The hubby and I leave for the beach today. I can't wait although I feel a little guilty. We are not taking P, this is a anniversary gift to ourselves. We need to get away just the 2 of us. We don't focus on our self and marriage enough. We are working on it though. Don't feel bad for P though. He will be staying with both set's of grandparent's, he will be getting plenty of attention. I am sure we will come back to a spoiled little boy..lol
We are taking him to Disney in September so he still get a trip:)
It is so freaking HOT here so we really haven't been doing much. I know this a random post. Enjoy the rest of your week
Oh and I just love taking pictures in black and white...

These Two

These two makes my heart want to explode. I love watching them together. They are also a great source of entertainment. They are 2 peas in a pod. I am so glad that the hubby gets to be at home with p during the day. They have a really special bond. J is a great hands on dad and has taught p so much. Love these 2..
Only 1 more day until the hubby and I head to the beach!!!
