Hunter’s first hot dog… kind of

      Comments Off on Hunter’s first hot dog… kind of

We decided to fire up the grill on Sunday and make some delicious hot dogs.  This was Hunter’s first experience eating hot dogs (or should I say moving the hot dog aside so he could eat the Cheetos).  Oh well the thought was there and I just had to share the image.

Hunter’s Week in Three Words – Week Six

      Comments Off on Hunter’s Week in Three Words – Week Six

This one might require a bit of explanation.  When Hunter first came home from the hospital he had one of those infant friendly pacifiers.  Emily’s Dad, who fishes more than anyone I have ever met, thought that it looked like a fishing bobber.  We thought it was clever and the name  “bobbo” stuck.  Fast forward to two years later and Emily… Read more »

It was such a beautiful day we just had to head over to Epcot to enjoy the Flower and Garden Festival.  The gorgeous weather and stunning backdrops provided the perfect setting for this week’s three words.  The spring weather is very fleeting here, before the summer heat arrives, so we are enjoying it while it lasts!  Enjoy.

Today we woke up to find the Easter bunny had visited our house! He left a basket of treats for Hunter and another empty basket to collect eggs from around the house. Hunter was so cute looking for the eggs, which he liked to open on the spot, spraying the contents everywhere. His favorites were the ones with jelly beans… Read more »

Today we headed down to Sarasota to celebrate my grandmother’s 95th birthday! She requested a pizza party, and we were more than happy to oblige. My aunt from Georgia and cousin from NYC arrived on Friday night to drive down with us, so we split the cars girls/boys for the drive to Sarasota. My dad, Patrick, and Hunter rode together, and I… Read more »

Cupcakes and cousins

Today we were lucky to be visited by my sister-in-law and four nieces and nephews. They are visiting Florida for spring break and drove up to spend the day with us. Since all but two of the group of us had birthdays in the last three months, the day became a birthday fest of sorts. Before they arrived, Hunter helped… Read more »

Abercrombie, here we come

Today Hunter’s “hat hair” turned into an impromptu photo session. I could not stop laughing at the explosion of hair that came out from under his Buzz hat. The 4th picture in particular seemed so Abercrombie to me, with his moody pose, wrinkled henley, and tousled locks!
