Bathing Beauty

On Sunday the ladies hit the pier to catch some sunrays! Grace hung inside with Nonnie & Grandaddy for a few, but I still put her bathing suit on her. After a while it was too hot so we went to Gigi & Big Daddy's and enjoyed each other's company on the back deck in the shade!

Family

Just about every Saturday, if we're in Columbia, we go to Scott's Grandmother's (Nanny) for lunch. After lunch Nanny loves to rock Grace, and Grace enjoys it too!


This particular Saturday Tammy was there with her girls. Here's Makenzie...

And Jacquelyn...

Cousin Lilley

Cousins Mary Kay, Jennifer, & Lilley came to visit us at Bulls Bay a few weeks ago. Lilley & Grace are only about 3 1/2 months apart. I'm excited that we're both in Raleigh and the girls can get together and play... eventually! Jenn & I both went to Meredith and have our fingers crossed that the girls will one day be Meredith Angels too. :) If so, they'll start the same year and maybe they'll even be roommates! (hehe!)

1 month old

Grace is ONE month old today!

Some face huh?...

Her eyes are mighty blue right now, but they say they can still change, so we'll see.

We went to the doctor on Friday for her 1 month check up. She now weighs 8 pounds 9 ounces and is 21.5 inches long. I never knew I could love someone so much!

Photos

Incase you haven't seen my photography blog, there are some pictures of Grace on there that I took when she was just 11 days old.

Mother's Day

My first Mother's Day was definitely special. I never thought I'd be able to say that I brought my bundle of joy home from the hospital on Mother's Day, but I can!

Grace wore home the exact same dress that I came home from the hospital in...

Family shot before I was wheeled out!

Ready to go!

We rode by Strategic and Scott noticed the message on the sign, I told him to turn around because I had to have a picture!

When we got home we all three took naps. This is one of my favorite images of Scott & Grace so far!

Scott & Grace gave me a beautiful Pandora bracelet for Mother's Day with beautiful charms! :)

Bulls Bay

This past weekend was Grace's first trip to the Bay. We rode home with Gigi because Scott had a boat show in Morehead City. As we were turning down Bulls Bay road I told Grace where we were and she smiled one of the biggest smiles! It was too cute! Here are a few pictures from the weekend.

Nonnie & Grandaddy met us down at the house when we arrived. It was Grandaddy's first time seeing Grace!

Grace & I napping after the family reunion on Saturday.

The Wilmington crowd came, so Nonnie & Grandaddy had all of their great-grandkids together. Here's a shot of Cade, Jaxon, & Dawson playing on Saturday.

When we arrived at the Bay we realized that our air conditioning didn't work. So Grace & I stayed with Gigi & Big Daddy until our air got fixed!

Big Daddy even fixed us all pancakes Sunday morning before Church. :) I just had to take a picture of them! They were YUMMY!!

Grace, so peaceful & *SWEET*!
