Randomness

Just thought I'd share some more favorite pictures. These are totally randome but so cute. Here's Piper walking with help from dad. GO PIPER! (She can do it by herself now but this is her learning)
Good morning Sunshine!
Piper trying to sneak a little play time with daddy's computer.
We broke our old camera and had to get a new one. I was just playing around with all of the functions and got some cute shots of Piper.

Summer Fun!

Beach Fun! For Memorial Day we took Piper to the beach. She was sooooo cute and had so much fun. She loved to play in the sand and would play in the little pools of water on the beach. We took her out into the ocean too. At first she thought it was too cold but she warmed up to it and we had fun jumping the waves.

Anyone for a dorito?


We've had lots of play dates this summer and piper just loves hanging with her pals.
One playdate was to our apt pool. The kids love it.



My friend Katie and I took the kids to the "sprinkler" at the awesome park by our place. They had so much fun splashing in the water and cooling off.

Spring Fun!

So here are some pictures of what we've been up to this last spring. Mom and I went to the strawberry patch to pick strawberries with our friends so that we could learn how to make JELLY! It turned out really yummy.



Here's I am enjoying my chair that grandmommy and granddaddy gave me for my birthday and i'm LOVING lounging in the PJs Tiff and Brad and Ava gave me. Yup and that's one of my new favorite books! (it comes in close to the 5 little monkeys)


Dad had a birthday in there somewhere and we had some yummy Texas cake! I had so much fun showing dad how to open his birthday presents.

And Even MORE Fun!

That's right! There's MORE! We went to the Cypress Gardens with Grandmommy and daddy and Becky. It was so fun to learn about the swamp on our little boat ride and see all of the pretty flowers!





Grandmommy even spotted an alligator! See him?!?!?!

More Fun

Piper got to spend a lot of time with her grandmommy and granddaddy while they were here. We took her to the awesome park by us and let her play in the rocks, swing, and slide. Here Piper is Happy.....................................................................................................Not so happy...............



Happy again. haha

This slide is awesome! It is SOOOO big and we had so much fun testing it out!

We took Grandmommy, Granddaddy, and Becky to the beach and Piper loved to play in the sand. Piper got a little sand in her eyes - sad!

And We're BACK!!!

Ok! Two months late but hey. Here are some pictures from Piper's first birthday!!! We had such a blast! Piper LOVES buterflies and says hi and tries to kiss the butterflies hanging from her ceiling every morning so I thought it would be perfect to make a butterfly cake for her. Here Mom (grandmommy) and I are with our cakes that we slaved away at all afternoon. It was so much fun to do. This is my VERY first attempt at making a "pretty" cake. I think we did a pretty good job.





Time for this party to get started! Piper had her two little friends over and Grandmommy and Granddaddy and Becky to help her celebrate here big day. I ordered pizzas for us all to chow on but accidentally ordered them at the Monks Corner location (20 minutes away!!) so we all had to chill while we waited for the boys to drive all the way up and back to get our dinner. Sorry everyone! My bad! It finally came and we finally ate and it was sooooo yummy. Thanks Papa John's!


We had a grand 'ol time opening presents and Piper's friends were eager to help her learn how to open birthday presents. Piper got a piggy bank from her great gradma "GG" and INSTANTLY wanted to kiss it and love it. It was pretty cute. She LOVED the new shades she got for the beach too and had a hay day showing them off!
Piper wasn't too much into her birthday cake - kindda sad but what can you do. She's a clean baby - doesn't like to get messy and after touching the frosting decided she didn't want anything to do with it - even if it was sugar!

Here we are playing after the party was over. Piper chillin in her PJs and Becky making faces at her. What a great day!

Thanks Tiff!

Thanks so much Tiff - the blogg looks GREAT! I was telling Tiffany what happened with my blog (and how I srewed it up big time and then lost all internet so I couldn't fix it) and she, the AMAZING friend that she is, fixed it for me. You're the BEST!! I still don't have internet so I still can't post any pictures - sorry everyone. I'm using the offices comp right now but I plan on getting our own internet "soon". Curtis and I decided to build a house in Summerville so hopefully they'll get started on that in the next month and MAYBE they'll be done by fall! That will be fun. It's getting hot out here, the heat index yesturday was over 100!!! yuck! Oh well, guess we better get used to it. Piper is walking, only about 5 steps at a time - then she topples over. Curtis is still doing an awesome job at work and is loving it. I think that's it going on here. Thanks again Tiffany!
