Sweet summertime!

I cannot believe it is almost August already! We have had such a fun summer...so much has happened. Reece started walking, turned one, and started speaking the sweetest baby language! Reece LOVES being outside and playing her little heart out, nevermind we have had over 40 days of 90+ degree temps! She would be outside all day long if she could...must get it from her daddy! She loves her new swingset, but her favorite thing about it is climbing the ladder then sliding down the slide...she is too funny! We love being her parents and getting to spend every minute we can with her!!

Reece's Birthday (A couple of months late)

Our sweet baby girl turned one on June 10th. Wow, I can't believe it has been a year since she was born. The invitations said "A year of laughter, a year of fun, our little princess is turning one". That could not be a more accurate statement. She has brought so much joy into our lives. We have laughed and smiled every single day since she was born! I love watching her grow, and seeing her learn new things every day. My heart has found a new love, my cup runneth over.

Maybe I should have asked for a pink cake?! Haha

I think she might have eaten a little bit of the cake, what actually made it into her mouth!

We are on day 5 of our beach trip, and this is just my 2nd post!! I am such a slacker, but we are having a great time and keeping busy...Here are a ton of pictures since our last post. Enjoy!

She holds his hand for a moment, and his heart forever...

Hmmmm...let me think!

Playing in the water

She doesn't like having things on her hand, so this is what she does! haha

He loves me back...until I start crying!

Reece's first beach trip!!

Here are some pictures from our first couple of days! Reece absolutely LOVES the beach!! Though her daddy has been close to an anxiety attack when she is covered in sand! We have already taken close to 120 pictures, and I am sure there will be many, many more to come.

First time seeing the beach!

Jump the waves!!!

Let's rinse off after playing in the ocean with my clothes on!

What? Who ate sand??

Who wants baby food when you can have sand???

Beautiful baby girl! Thanks Caroline for letting me borrow your hat!

So thirsty!

Sand, sand, everywhere! Fun for me, but about to give my daddy an anxiety attack!
