Florida Vacation!

We went to visit down in Bradenton and look what was waiting for Matthew!!! Grandaddy bought him a Thomas bed! He had never slept in anything but a crib, so we were very excited that he slept like a rock and didn't change his sleeping habits one bit.

Playing in NaNa's pool

Alaina's first time in a pool!

Wheee! Rolling over is fun!

Grandaddy & cousin Isabella

First time in an exersaucer!

She loves to try to get her Daddy's coffee :)

We took Matthew to see Snooty the manatee. He thought it was a big fish :)

Alaina had a good time coming along for the ride :)

Matthew learned to let go of Mom & Dad and swim on his own with his lifejacket on!!!

Alaina with her Grandpa Bill & NaNa

Alaina on her Baptismal Day. It was a beautiful ceremony and she was happy the whole time...even when they poured water over her head!

Her Godmother, Aunt Heather, and her cousin Isabella

Alaina & NaNa

Her Grandaddy & Great Grandma Christian

Her Great Aunt Madeleine came to see her on her special day too!

Once he learned to swim on his own we could hardly get him to get out the pool!

Matthew also learned to ride a tricycle while we were there!

We had a wonderful time & can't wait to move down there in 2 years!!!
