Such fan of the new store Crazy8, it's parent company is Gymboree. The best part is it has Gymboree's mix and match practicality without the hefty prices. Their clearance had a TON of stuff for only $2.99. Thankfully there's a location close by, I can't wait check it out!

mini vaca:: cliffside keep part II

We had an awesome weekend at Joel's Great Uncle and Aunt's cottage off of Lake Erie. So reminiscent of Goldilocks and the 3 bears, don't you think? A first timer to the lake was Ruger, one gorgeous and energetic dog!

Of course the really important people were Joel's cousin Brian and his girlfriend, Michelle. Ruger's Parents. Joel got a lesson on parent to parent etiquette. i.e. You follow the other parents rules when it comes to their kids, such as NO feeding Ruger at the table, JOEL!!!

This is daddy-o taking a picture. No faces. Just point and shoot. literally. I'm going to regret having very few Mamma-mia pictures with Whitaker.

This is Great Aunt Doris singing Whitaker a french lullaby (for which she forgot the words to). He just sat still and stared. I'm so glad I caught this on camera.

What's vacation without a bath in the sink.A back pack plus beach equals GREAT idea!

beach feet!

baby brigade

Whitaker and I have managed to be apart of one awesome playgroup (and BIG playgroup for that matter). It's been so wonderful to have an opportunity to meet other first time moms from the church we've been attending as well as have a mid week escape every other week. The top picture is from a BBQ one of the family's hosted one weekend that was loads of fun, rockband included! The bottom picture is actually almost all the babies, minus one. We call ourselves the baby brigade.

cheese!

you can't get any cheesier.

Whitaker has officially been conditioned smile when the camera comes out. The funny thing is, it's only when I bring MY camera out that things can get really cheesy! :)

fantastic sams

A baby's first hair cut is kinda a big deal.
Thanks Lucy for doing such a great job!
