Weekend in Fairhope



We spent the weekend at the Bay house in Fairhope this weekend with good friends! I'm glad to report that the apparent aversion to water has passed and Ellabee spent a good deal of time playing in the sand with the sand toys.


















Here is our local super-model hanging out in the surf.

"Come on Ellabee,
the water feels great!"

Our First Time with the Ice Cream Truck


It's summer and that means it's time for BOMB POPS! A junior bomb pop for the wee one.

Swimming Swimming in the Swimming Hole


Ellabee and Daddy in the swimming hole. We've been taking a water babies class at Lakeshore Foundation. They "waterproofed" the children, meaning that she now knows how to get to the side of the pool and monkey crawl out. She also went under water several times AND, most importantly, she isn't afraid to get in the water anymore!

We're considering swimming lessons next.

Ellabee has an announcement!!!!

Let's Dye Some Eggs!

Our friend Audrey came over Easter Saturday to dye eggs in the front yard. Ellabee enjoyed drawing on the eggs before we dyed them, Audrey liked smashing the eggs on the picnic table.

Here comes Peter Cottontail

It's the start of Holy Week and we are spending a lot of it in the yard! Here's Miss Priss on Palm Sunday in her "egg-hunt" wear and then with Mommy and Daddy.

The Birds and Bubbles

It's Spring at that means Bubbles at Ellabee's house! Or as we call them, Booblas! EBS can now blow them herself... enjoy these action shots! Oh and the black on her face isn't dirt that she is eating - it's the chocolate cake her Daddy decided to feed her right before bedtime!
