Beach Babe

We had an absolutely fabulous baby-moon to the beach this week!  We got some much needed R&R and enjoyed watching Brooks experience some new things.  He loved the ocean (but continued to call it a pool the whole time).  A special thank you to my BFF, CJ and her fam for making this trip happen!  Love you!  

I am going to let the pictures speak for themselves 

(I took enough of them)!

Ramsey's first time on the beach (27 weeks)!

 Brooks loved playing with the truck on the sand!

 

Brooks was obsessed with chasing the birds!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 That smile just melts my heart! (I might have to put this one on canvas)!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Priceless!

 He's just so handsome, just like his daddy!

I think we wore him out!

A Big Boy Room It Is...

Brooks has recently begun sleeping in his new room.  He took to it with no problem, but mommy... now that's a different story.  I just feel like the "nursery" will never be the same.  Brooks made me a true mom in that room.  It was the wee hours of the night I spent feeding and rocking him, the 2AM fevers where Tim and I worried over him, the countless baths and story times, and the all important cuddles.  I know Brooks and I will make precious memories in his new room, and I will be more prepared for the memories to come with Ramsey, but it's still a little sad...

I only have a few pictures of Brooks' new room, but there will be more to come!

Grandma turned 60 and retired this month!  Congrats Mom!  Here are a few pictures of her many celebrations!

Mom's retirement celebration at work.  All the grandsons were there and stayed busy "closing up shop!"

After the work party, mom got to take all the grand-babies to "Catch Air."  They had an absolute blast, and Ramsey even got to go down a slide or two!

Brooks thought I couldn't see him when he "hid" in the balls!  

Brooks also had a blast playing at his Papa & Nana's house!  

My cousin Emily is so funny!! 

(He looks so grown up in those jeans!)

We also celebrated Mommy's 29th birthday this week!  Brooks loved the balloons, as usual!
