Random Pictures

Robbie went out fishing with two of his good buddies Sean and Ian last week. Here is a picture of Robbie, Sean and Lauren with one of their Mahi-Mahi catches!! Lauren is holding on to her daddy and thinking..."What is that?"

Robbie went out fishing with his cousin Donald the other day. Here is a picture of Robbie and Lauren with a Mahi-Mahi! Lauren was thinking..."Daddy this one is bigger than last week!!"

Here is a picture of Lauren after her bath.
She looked like she was saying, "Yo, how's it goin'?!

Yep...my thumb tastes good!

Lauren's First Beach Trip

My mom, Lauren and I ventured to Topsail Beach to visit Jimmy, Becky and Jack Norris for the day. As mom and I were packing the car, I felt like we were going for a week or more with all of the things I packed. I had no idea what I needed so I packed about everything.;) We were very excited for Lauren to step foot on the beach for the first time and visit with some close family friends. Needless to say it was a beautiful day!

Lauren's First Oatmeal Cereal

We recently got the okay from the doctor for Lauren to start Oatmeal Cereal. Here are some pics of her first encounter. It was quite interesting!!





Lauren is Six Months Old!

Wow...Lauren is six months old! She weighs 12.5 pounds and is 25 1/4 inches long. She has the greatest little personality. She is always happy, smiling, and talking. Yep, she is talking. I'll give you one guess what she is saying...yep..da-da-da-da-da!! Of course, she makes Robbie very proud. She also has two front teeth coming in on the bottom. She is growing up so fast!! Thanks mom for the photo opt!!

Look at that hair!!

Lauren Meets Aunt Norma

Lauren met her Great-Great Aunt Norma last week. They enjoyed each others company very much. Lauren has been talking a lot lately and she wanted me to type her Aunt Norma a letter. This is what she said:

Dear Aunt Norma,

It was so nice to meet you! Thank you for feeding me my bottles. I was very hungry. Thank you for playing with me and keeping me company in the back seat of Grandy's car on our outing to Emerald Isle. I really enjoyed watching you eat at Chowda Heads!I wish you would have shared some shrimp off of your shrimp burger but I understand. Thank you and Grandy for taking me to Bogue Pier. The sound of the waves and salt air put me right to sleep! I hope to see you again soon! I miss you already...I love you Aunt Normie!!

Love,

Lauren

P.S...More pics are coming!!

Ooh La La!

Check little Miss Lauren out in her first bikini! Her Aunt Gay bought her this bikini I think before she was even born! Doesn't she look precious! We can't wait to get her out in the boat and on the beach! You took some great pictures mom! Thank you Aunt Deb for getting her to smile!!






After the photo shoot, Lauren ate and took a nap. When she woke up my mom and Aunt Deb took her for a walk. She absolutely loves her walks!!
