family vacation

this past weekend, champ and mimi treated us to a fabulous long weekend getaway at the Westin La Cantera!

we lounged by the pool, ate fabulous meals, and shopped 'til we dropped!

thank you, mom and dad, for such a great family vacation!

we treasure the time we spend together.

here are some of our favorite pics from the weekend...

mimi opted to go "no hands" by herself!

Dada loves Cade so much! 

i love these two boys more than words can say!

loving the pool 

Cade is the center of attention! 

Margaret's best-friend Ali also joined us for the weekend, 

she's like a part of the fam :)

love. love. love. 

thanks champ and mimi for the fabulous memories!

we love you!

this is our wild little mohawk man eating dinner

hope y'all had a great weekend!

so long june, hello july

I don't know where last month went!

Maybe it went by so fast because I was chasing Cade around the house...

and he wasn't crawling.

Cade started walking!!!!!!!

Yes, walking.

He took his first steps a few days before he turned 10 months old.

We've had the most fun watching him waddle around.

He is so proud of himself!

Here are some other pics of what we've been up to lately...

i've been teaching him sign language, and this is the sign for "all done"

well, it's close. but he knows that it means he's finished and is ready to get down.

i love being able to communicate with him that way.

l.o.v.e.s. being naked

 loves mohawks during bathtime

like i said, loves the nakedness

he is cute enough to get away with almost anything

his first bites of french toast, huge fan!

first bite of watermelon.

now he's a watermelon fanatic!

we played in the pool a lot over july 4th

those eyes, they make you melt

notice how he's all ready for bed...

he is now defying bedtime.

it's crazy. he used to love sleep.

he got away with it once because dada was gone and i wanted a buddy for the night,

but not again!

that's a wrap up of our last few weeks, hope you enjoyed it!

we hope you all are doing well, too!
