Father's Day

We spent Father's Day at Great (fabulous!) Aunt Myrna's house and swam in the pool. I got Dad a new set of grips for his golf clubs and a golf lesson (he has to get in as much practice as he can before I can swing a stick as I will clearly be a prodigy in the golf department).
Dad was super "excited" we were wearing matching swimsuits (thanks for embarassing us both, Mom).
For a further Father's Day shout out, as Dad would say "I shall call him...Mini-Me." Can't figure out why he says that...

PaPa NoNo

PaPa NoNo is ...
...quite amusing

My new friends Wyatt and Tessa

Mom has joined numerous playgroups about town, and one of my best buddies from these groups is Wyatt.
Check out our stripe theme...
Showing him my smooth back to stomach moves...
This is Wyatt's ADORABLE big sis, Tessa. She is the most well spoken little girl! She has however renamed my pups "Nemo" (Nikko) and "Rooster" (Brewster), but they don't seem to mind at all...
This is the same swing I sit in for Mom to take her silly growing pics. What a difference 2 years makes!!

Jonesin' with the Joneses

Blake and Robin Jones came over to hang out with me a few Saturdays ago. As always, they brought me an adorable gift--an awesome swimsuit and some snazzy sunglasses (no worries, a post to come of me modeling them on my very first swim!).
Miss Robin knows the way to my heart...
They just said I COULD hold my own bottle...not that I WANT to.
The Joneses were nice enough to indulge my parents and stay for dinner!

Lunch with Sophia

My mom's former secretary, Maria, has an adorable little girl named Sophia--what a cutie and not yet 3! Granted she is a little older, but we all know that never stops me from trying to charm the ladies.
She and her mom met us at Fadi's for lunch recently. While some are hummus and shwarma fans, I am still not venturing out of my comfort zone (but check out what a great job I am doing of feeding myself!).

7 Months Old

(I am much more enthusiastic about these photos now that I know the weekly ones are behind us!)

Chubby Cheeks...

...and lotsa' drool.

Aunt Lizzy comes to visit!

On actualy Memorial Day, Aunt Lizzy came and hung out with us all afternoon. She and mom were busy catching up because they hadn't hung out in a while. In full appreciation of the holiday and the visitor, I wore a (red, white, and blue) shirt Aunt Lizzy got me from a trip she took to Boston:
Hanging out my very favorite way--with a bottle! Playing outside. Posin' on the patio.
The shirt reads: "I'm a Keepah!" So true, so true...

Quite a Memorable Memorial Day Party

On Memorial Day weekend, we headed over to my Great Aunt Myrna and Uncle Jim's house for a fish fry. Mom generally is the one behind the camera, so Dad and I got her back and made her actually appear in some of the photos with me:
My Great-Godmother ("GiGi"), Mom, PaPa NoNo, and my Great (fabulous!) Aunt Myrna.
Great Uncle Jim, Dad, and Uncle Jimmy playing a little Texas Hold'Em. Cousin Spencer is just a casual (read:minor) observor!!
GA Myrna, her judge--Judge Roll, and Cousin Wyatt
GiGi, Aunt Linda, and Papa NoNo
A great shot of my infamous baby mullet...
Always good to have someone to lean on...
HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!!

I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Outta Here!!!

Grilling out with Shannon & Mitch

In late May, Shannon & Mitch came over for dinner and got to see me before I went to bed. Rumor has it there is a little boy brewing who will be almost a full year younger than me...exciting stuff!

My 6 month appointment and my new pediatrician!

I have a wonderful new pediatrician, Dr. S!! She correctly diagnosed my "behavioral cough" when mom took me in worried about bronchitis, she laughed at my ridiculous noises, and doesn't even think I am weird when I only turn from my back to my stomach, but not the other way around. She is a very nice addition to my entourage.Posing Olan Mills style with Dr. S. Not quite sure about this paper or mirror thing...
...except I recognized a friendly face!
6 Month Stats:

Fun with Fin

My gal pal Finley and I at our biweekly playdate...
Hammin' it for the cam.
And droolin' like a fool.

Let's Do Lunch!

Mom and I, Miss Elizabeth and and the beautiful Mary Margaret dined at Cafe Express a few weeks ago. I am not digging the high chair and am starting to get apprehensive whenever I hear our moms whispering about photo ops for the rehearsal dinner slideshow...
