Go Steelers!

I don't have much time; the Steelers are about to kick off the new season in a few minutes but I just had to post a few photos in my new gear. Go Steelers!

Playing at the Park

It's been real hot lately, but Mom, Dad and I decided to sweat it out at the park the other day. It's bearable until sunset when the mosquitoes start swarming. I really love this park! Don't mind the sippy cup in every photo...a girl has to stay hydrated!

Running to the slides.

I like to get started slowly and go down the tube slide with Mommy.

But then I'm ready to zip down on my own! Yee-haw!

I was a little startled from sliding so fast, but once I stopped I realized just how awesome that was!

Let's do that again!

Swinging with mommy.

Time to go home. Boo-hoo. Daddy takes my mind off leaving by giving me a ride on his shoulders. Yay!

Big hug for Daddy!


Here's a kiss for your head Daddy. Thanks Mommy for taking these photos! You're the best!

I know it's hot and buggy but I really love being outside. Thank you for going with me!

Adventure

Ooohh, the 10th Anniversary edition of National Geographic Adventure! This sure beats "See Jane Run."

Here's a good article on the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

Family and Aquarium

Mimi and Pap-Pap with me at the Tierra Verde park.

Mimi shows off some sunglasses.

Big smooch from mommy!

The girls.

I'm ready to go exploring.

Some of the displays at the Florida Aquarium are too big, some are too small...this one was just right. This mini aquarium is way better than TV.

Woah, you snuck up on me shark!

Aunt Anne and Uncle Matt

Aunt Annie and Uncle Matt came down to Florida for a visit several months ago but I've been too busy to blog about it. Now I'm finally getting around to it. In fact in the few months since their visit, I've gotten A LOT better at saying their names.

Here's a group photo. I was going to look at the camera, but I couldn't take my eyes of my Aunt and Uncle.

My mommy and her sis.

I love goofing off with mommy!

The Vichich family.

Me and the dadster.

Mimi and Pap Pap came by for a visit too.

I enjoyed showing off for everyone by repeatedly closing this door and jumping back out in a grand entrance. Everyone else was laughing too....just not as much as me.

Miss you Anne and Matt! Love You!

Hanging in the Front Yard

Here are some recent pics from hanging out in the front yard. Thanks to the recent rain, the plants have finally been waking up. I enjoyed exploring the yard and seeing how some of the plants have reacted to the change in the weather.



Hi dad.

I enjoy walking through the meadow searching for cool flowers and insects.





Dad says I grow like a weed.

Eating Pasta and Florida Aquarium

I love pasta, especially the sauce. I even got some in my mouth by accident.

Today we went to the Florida Aquarium for a belated birthday celebration for Mimi. Mom and I hung out by the stingray touch tank until Mimi and Pap Pap arrived.

Checking out the wetlands with Pap Pap and Mimi.
I love turtles.

Giddyup turtle!

Watch out! Here comes a shark!

I loved exploring all the exhibits.

I also loved exploring this hollow shell.

I wasn't sure about touching the starfish, but I enjoyed splashing in the water.

Happy Belated Birthday Mimi! Thanks for joining us at the aquarium today!

Meadow, Hailey's B-day and Sawgrass

On tap today, we have some pics of me playing in the meadow, me hiking at Sawgrass Lake and my good friend Hailey's birthday party. Let's dive right in.

I've been spending lots of time playing with flowers in our meadow in our front yard. Daddy calls it a meadow. I'm not sure what the neighbors call it.






And a few pics from just hanging around the house.



And now off to Hailey's birthday party.

Daddy was trying to hold the camera himself, but another party guest was nice enough to snap a shot of me hugging daddy.


I like hiking at Sawgrass Lake. The boardwalk keeps me walking in the right direction, at least most of the time. Sometimes the flowers are too tempting (and close enough to reach)!

Hanging out in the oak hammock checking out the saw palmetto and blowing kisses at armadillos.


It's getting hot, and that means inflatable pool time!
