Hanging out at the beach.

 

Colin spent most of the day sitting on the shore.  He really liked when the waves came up and covered him in sand =)

August 30

 

 

Watching fish jump.

 

We made it to Morehead City! 
We are staying at Garet's mom's house, Blue Skies!  Time to relax and have fun!

August 29

Snuggled up.

 

Colin got all his stuffed animals (Dog, Horse, and Cam) and snuggled up in Daddy's lap =)

August 28

Climbing.

 

We went to the park today after running errands.  It was super hot, but Colin had fun climbing on the jungle gym!

August 27

I.Love.Him.

 

Oh I missed this sweet face!

August 26

Breakfast with Daddy.

 

So, while I was away, the boys had a great time out and about!  This was breakfast one morning.  I love it!  Garet said that Colin kept the staff entertained!  Precious!

August 25

Paula Deen's restaurant.

 

We had so much fun exploring Savannah!  And what better way to end the night than a wonderful dinner at Paula Deen's!  "Hey Y'all!"

August 24

BFF.

 

I got to go on a girls trip with my best friend Marsha!  We went to Savannah, GA and I left Colin home with Garet.  We had a blast!  Not only were we celebrating our 30th birthday's, we were also celebrating 25 years of friendship!  =)

August 23

Having fun.

 

We went to lunch at Amanda's house today.  Colin was in heaven when her son, Sawyer, pulled out all of his cars and a big boat!  Seriously, this was when I was telling him it was time to come eat.  He didn't want to leave the toys =)

August 22

Playing in the rain.

 

It started raining after dinner... Garet and Colin decided to get a closer look =)
Luckily I had my camera nearby!  Colin LOVED playing in the rain! 

August 21

Playing with water.

During Colin's nap I got his water table and toys all set up under our car port (our backyard is pretty much Suzi's domain).  I was so excited for him to wake up so we could go play =)  He had a blast!  And actually didn't get as wet as he used to.  I didn't get too many pictures because he started splashing me!  It was a lot of fun!

August 20

A masterpiece.

I had a few projects to do that involved me painting (I will have to blog about them when I'm finished), so I figured I would let Colin paint too.  He did so well, and only got a little on his face.  and feet.  and legs.  and hands.  okay lots on his hands... but he had fun!  And now I have new pictures to hang!

August 19

Smoothie with Grandmama.

Colin loves smoothies!  My mom was making homemade salsa (which was sooo good!) and when Colin heard the blender, he jumped up so fast and sprinted into the kitchen!  He thought she was making smoothies =)  Guess that's the only time he hears the blender....  So, of course, she then made him one. 

August 18

Driving a boat.

Mom and I took Colin to a park nearby... he had a blast!  Anytime he "drives" anything, he almost always calls it his boat.  =) 

August 17

Love my guys.

Today I turned 30... and I couldn't be happier.

August 16

Loving my son.

We were playing on the bed, and then Colin decided to read to me.  I am so blessed.

August 15

Fixing Elmo.

My parents have a Tickle Me Elmo, and he needed new batteries... so Colin was a big help to Grandmama by taking out the old batteries and replacing them. 

August 14

Mr. Handyman.

Mom, Colin and I went to Ikea and Colin had blast with the tools!  They even had that cute little tool belt! 

August 13

Swimming.

We got to go to a neighbors pool with Papaw today! 

August 12

Cousins.

After our train ride, we got to hang out with my parents for a bit, then see some of the rest of my family!  Kailey and Morgan came by, and Colin got his first haircut!  (This pic was after the haircut... so no worries - he still has curly hair!  Phew!)  It was so cute to see all the kids playing together.
(You can head over to The Beane Family blog to see more of what we've been up to)

August 11

Love my guys.

Before Colin went to bed tonight, I remembered that I didn't have a picture for today!  So the boys posed for me - this one was Garet saying, "smile really big!" 
I love it!

August 10

Weeeeeee.

Colin and I went to a bounce house today - and he LOVED it!  Everytime he would go down the slide he would yell "weeeeee!"  and then about flip over at the bottom.  It was a lot of fun!

August 9

First fort.

Can you see Colin's feet sticking out?! 
We built his first fort!  And he LOVED it!  He crawled in and started laughing... he kept calling it his "boat" =)

August 8

Playground.

We went to a nearby playground and it was wet from all the rain we've had lately - Colin would peek down the slide and say "wet!"  After splashing in the puddles and playing in the mulch, Colin went down the wet slide =)  He was soaked by the time we left, but it was totally worth it! 

August 7

Cars.

Colin likes to go into our room, grab all the pillows, call Suzi on the bed, and zoom his cars around.

August 6

Creative.

Colin decided to put one of his toys on top of his bike, then ride it... he was very proud of himself =)

August 5

Tired girl.

Garet took Colin to the store with him, so Suzi and I went on a long (HOT!) walk... when we got back she was so tired!  Look at that tongue!

August 4

Watching the waterfall.

We went around downtown this afternoon.  It was fun to kick/throw around the ball - I was just glad Colin didn't throw it into the water =)

August 3

Hanging out.

Lunch was almost ready, and it was a little too quiet in the living room... I found Colin and Suzi cuddling =)  He loves to lay with her.

August 2

Talking on the phone.

We took Suzi to the vet this morning (just a check up), so I thought it was fitting that Colin wear his "I love my dog" shirt =)  He puts the phone up to in his ear and just blab blab blabs, it is adorable.

August 1

With my parents.

We all went to the Natural Science Center and had a great time today!  We got to see a ton of different animals!  I will do a post on it soon!  We took a picture in front of this because it said "Dedicated to Davis Kelly" and for those that know me, know my maiden name is Davis... so they just got a little mixed up, it should have been: Kelly Davis

July 31

Drawing with Grandmama.

My parents came for a night!  We had fun playing outside with the chalk =)

July 30

So excited.

Colin and I went outside to hang out this afternoon... I got out the bubbles and, as you can tell, he was soooo excited!  He still puts the wand directly on his mouth to blow the bubbles... I can't seem to get him to understand that he will blow more bubbles if he backs the wand away a bit!  And boy was it hot out - can you see the sweat dripping from the side of his face?!
