A year in review

I can't believe it, but in just a few short days, our little girl will be 1. How did this happen...and so quickly?

In 12 months, Acadia's gone from this...




To this...






She's gone from just laying around...





To climbing all over everything...and I swear she's going to start walking any day now...




I can only imagine what the next year will bring. We're having so much fun though I can't wait to see what's in store for us!

I love summer!

Is it really August? This summer is flying by so we're taking the time to get out as much as possible. Acadia seems to be enjoying it!

Perfect Weekend

My cousin Michelle and her husband Jack came and visited last weekend. We had such a great weekend eating and drinking and of course laughing!

My week with Acadia

I spent last week at home with Acadia since our sitter was on vacation. Let's just say she kept me entertained.

Summer Fun

While Scott was in Columbus for his "guys weekend", Acadia and I went back home for a quick visit.

We got in early Friday morning and spent most of the day lounging by the pool at my dad's. Acadia loves the water and could have stayed in the pool all day!

Saturday was catching up with friends and food. Lunch at Cooper's Hawk...can't come home and not go there...then off to Tom & Lacey's for their annual luau. I love when things fall into place and stuff like that is going on the weekend I come home. Lacey had a water table and small pool set up for the kids, and of course, Acadia was in the water about 2 seconds after we got there.



Sunday was the family picnic. The rain (mostly) held off and we were able to catch up with the side of the fam that we see only once a year. Let's just say Acadia was a big hit. She went to everyone and even got to hit her first pinata.

Sunday night was mama's night out with the girls. I met a couple of friends in my old neighborhood for dinner and drinks. We had a blast catching up and telling stories and just having fun. We were actually the last one's to leave the restaurant and we could have stayed longer. Time just goes by too fast when I'm home!

We flew back yesterday and again Acadia was a great traveler. She's a little tired from her busy weekend, but luckily I'm home all week so we can just chill out.

As you can tell, I don't have many pictures. I somehow managed to forget to bring my camera. So if any of you have pictures from this weekend, please pass them along.

Crawling and Crusing and Climbing...Oh My!

We've been busy, busy, busy over here trying to keep up with Acadia! She's crawling, climbing and cruising all over the place. From the moment she wakes up to the time she goes to bed she is moving and shaking. We love it!!


Her "new" favorite toy. Scott and I got Acadia Rody (a rubber horse) for Christmas.
She sits, climbs, or bounces on him all day!


Bath time. Another place Acadia loves to play.



She likes boxes more than the actual present inside of it!



Relaxing at a carnival last weekend.



We still can't believe in just 2 months our little girl is going to be 1!!!

Vacation in a Nutshell

We spent last week at Top Sail Beach in North Carolina. I think I could have stayed there forever.



Our view from the porch. Yes, we were right on the water.



Acadia loved the beach. She was so good playing in the sand. She didn't even try to eat it!



Outside, where we ate most of our meals.





Keaton and Acadia having fun together. You'd never guess
they're two months apart!



Unfortunately all that playing together on the floor got them both sick.
Here's Acadia with a washcloth on her head to keep her cool. This was the only place we
could get her to sleep. Somehow, Scott didn't mind.



Before she got sick though, she lived up to the name of Daddy's little surfer girl!




But she's still mommy's girl too!




It was great hanging out with Tim and Dana and having time just to relax.
We got some great family shots even with two sick kids!




No, Acadia's not walking yet. But she sure looks close!





Ellie and Keaton were so cute the whole time. You might even think they like each other!




And Grandma, of course, had a great time hanging out with her grandkids.
