Lately - June 26, 2011 in Carlsbad

Feeding baby doll - she just figured out how to do this

Hanging out with the Cuarenta cousins in Carlsbad. This was Sunday afternoon after Michael (bubba) had gotten ordained to be a deacon at church. Fun milestone for him.

1st Beach trip of summer 2011

Ready to go to the beach...so excited!

Trying to figure out what this sand stuff is, she started licking it off her hands. Eww!

Building her first sand castle with mommy and friend Brianna

Brianna joined us for some beach fun! So glad to see her again

Ready to go home...

Let summer begin

Ready to go swimming

Brooklind enjoyed the cold pool more then mommy I think. She liked being with me rather than in the floaty thing.

Video of dunking Brooklind under the water for the first time. She didn't cry, but she wasn't to sure about it either. Then later we took a shower and she was freaking out when the water was hitting her (so dont know if it was too warm for her or she was freaked out about being dunked earlier)

Brooklind June update

She is our little climber, she gets into everything. Most recently she can get up and down off of the couch now. She thinks shes so cool when she does it too. Its funny!

Making silly faces with daddy, she was laughing!

She looks like a kid in these pictures, not a baby anymore. It is so sad.

Bath time - she still loves it and gets excited every time I am filling up the tub.

Helping mommy & daddy with ebay shipping

She got stuck in here and started freaking out, Cobra was wondering why she would even want to get in there??

Happy Father's Day!!!

My cooking blog

http://jennyscookingjourney.blogspot.com/

I am starting a cooking blog. Recently I have come to a point in my life where I am having to cook and not just get a nice frozen dinner out of the freezer. It has been a major struggle for me to get used to this, but a major learning experience.

My new blog is under construction right now and soon will get a few posts up. Thanks

Pretend City Childrens Museum

Brooklind & I on our first visit to Pretend City in Irvine. Thank you Jen, we had such a great time.

They had a farming area where you could pretend you are gardening. So cute with rakes and shovels. Also fake oranges to pick off the tree and fake vegetable to pick out of the ground.

Nate hanging out with Brooklind - they were so cute. They kept touching each others hands.
