Princess Ivey

Here are some random pictures taken the couple weeks before our San Diego trip. Ivey is really animated and has become quite the squealer. She's using her hands so much now and tries to put everything in her mouth, including her toes. She underestimates the size of her mouth however, trying to get big plastic toys in her mouth that just won't fit!

Ivey's First Vacation

Joe had to go to San Diego for work, so we tagged on an extra day & made it a long weekend.  We were a bit worried about taking a 3 month old on a flight across the country, but Ivey was great on both flights, which the other passengers appreciated. Gramma and Grandad were vacationing in New Mexico, Utah and Arizona right before our trip, so they drove out to meet us, allowing us to go on an anniversary date or two.
We stayed at Mission Beach & were a short walk from both the beach & the bay.  The beach had a great boardwalk and the bay had a paved biking/running trail surrounding it.  It was a constant 65 degrees with light wind.





Ivey's first flight - we were upgraded to first class which was a very nice surprise

We all went to Sea World, but I slept most of the day.

Another Big Week

Daddy went to Orlando for work & we all went to the mountains this weekend to see Grandpa & Grandma.  Ivey figured out a new trick today.  Best way to abort tummy time is to roll over.  Gets lots of applause (see video below).

My very first hike on the Tanawha Trail at the Rough Ridge Overlook.
Was hard to see much other than Daddy's shirt.
