A Crawling Costa

Well, as most of you heard...I'm a crawling baby now!  I finally figured out how to move my legs in unison with my arms...watch out world!

This is my favorite game...mom can't stack the cups fast enough before I knock them over. 

 Mommy and I took a yoga class together...and she thought I was too little to learn some of those poses.

 Here are a few pics of our apartment.  As you can see, mom and dad had to buy a "super-yard" to keep me contained.  We will be in this apartment for 2 more months...and then will either be renting or buying a new house.  Time flies!

 And my room...thank goodness for room darkening shades in this sunny climate.

Dad misses grilling out...so we decided to do it indoors one night.

We went to the farmer's market in Raleigh recently...it was very impressive.  All the local farms come to sell their yummy fruits and veggies.  I helped mom hold the tomatoes.

Beach Babies

My buddy Matthew Wolf came to visit recently!  It was my first time hosting a sleep-over.  We wore eachother out with lots of playing.  Our moms think we look alike...well, maybe not exactly the same size though.

We got to stay for a night at the condo with Matty and his family at Wrightsville Beach!

For Father's Day, we ate breakfast at Mike's favorite diner...The Causeway Cafe.  He is very passionate about breakfast...kind of reminds me of someone else we know.

 

It was worth the wait...yum!

A great pic of me and Marcy!

I told Matthew to stay awake when the camera is shooting...but he didn't listen. :)

I was pretty gentle with Matthew...

except for a few sneak-attack wrestling moves.

It was really windy on the beach that day...but I loved sitting in the shallow water and picking up the sand.

Thank you Wolf's for a great weekend!



Whoopee it's summer!

Well, we've had a pretty busy summer so far.  My Aunt Gina came for a week...she likes to have parties when she is here.  So, she ordered fresh lobsters from Maine...I was intrigued.  My family said they were delicious.

Cool baby.

Feeding time.

 This is my favorite new sleeping position...Gamma says mommy used to sleep like this too.

We love spending time at Gamma's new pool.



 My first "Race for the Cure"...we are always thinking of you Uncle Randy!

Everyday I become more in love with my doodle...now I like to tackle  her.  Mommy is teaching me how to pet instead off pull hair.  Riley doesn't mind either way.

My cousin Kate likes to read stories to me.

 I really love to pound on the piano keys..maybe I'll play like my Uncle Kenny.

My hair can be styled without any product...awesome.



 

The NC Zoo is really beautiful.  The animals are able to roam in a natural habitat without a lot of big fences.  I enjoyed riding the train to "Africa" and seeing elephants, baboons, giraffe, chimps, gorillas, and the king of the jungle.

Beach bums

I took my parents to the beach recently for a much needed family getaway.  We stayed at the beach house of a family friend at Emerald Isle...boy was it awesome.  Here we are sitting out on the dock.

 I liked looking at the ocean...but I was not a huge fan when my feet touched that cold water.

One weekend was just not long enough.
