The Coast!

Turns out Elise likes the water! It just needs to be warm enough. She stayed in the condo pool until Mommy and Daddy were ready to get out.

Pruney feet! They were soooo cute in person.

She loved sitting on the beach, too! She played in the wet sand and liked the waves.

Beach beauty!
Hee hee! The souvenir shops.

Happy Memorial Day!

Thanks, Mom and Dad, for the weekend.

The River!

On May 18Th our little girl stood completely on her own! She did it several times that day, and hasn't since! It was on the day we headed down to the river to celebrate Laurie's 55Th birthday.

Jaimee, Jake, Danny and Jody Silly time with Laurie
She preferred the float on land, instead of the cold river.

We had a great time - Thank you Mima and Papa!

Houston Trip

Our niece, Samantha had her First Communion at the end of April. We weren't able to take photographs during the Mass, so I just ended up with a couple of photos of Elise at the end.She's leaning against the pole, but it was so cute to see her standing.

We had breakfast the Friday before Mother's Day with my Grandmother at the Egg & I. Really good food.

In order to spend Mother's Day all together, we met up in Houston where our cousin's, Marion, son was being Baptized. Trevor is his Godfather. As soon I we got into our hotel room we noticed the owl on the lamp! How nice of them to make us feel at home!

Mother's Day Brunch. Some Grandma love.All of the grandchildren, together, in one place!

We also visited cousin Dana and her new little Sully.

The three of us can't be serious for too long. Bruenn is ready for summer days and Texas weather.

Ready for a First Swim!Our cousin Darcy visited us at the hotel. We got to see all our Houston family!

Bruenn's very first dip!

Elise's very first dip!

She didn't like it much, but I guess it was a little cold. Thank you to Trevor for the hotel hook-up, we had a blast!

First Trip to the Zoo!

Glenda bought Elise (and us) season passes to the zoo. This was her first trip!
The new hippo exhibit is amazing.

Gigi takes her into the petting zoo.
Chillin' on a sloth.

She is such a trooper and really seemed to enjoy it.

Jody's Grandma had a present for her after the zoo. Gigi helps her play with it. Elise adores her Gigi.
