Dinosaurs!

On Saturday morning we had breakfast with the Dinosaurs! The Dunlaps took us to the opening of the new Dinosaur exhibit at Fernbank. The kids loved the action, and the exhibit is wonderful-- a must see!

Em's house

The whole fam packed it up and went over to the Courage's yesterday for some afternoon fun. Andy, Emerson and Grace loved the bouncy castle, swing and wagon ride. You just can't beat a mid-60s day in Atlanta! Thanks for having us over

On another note, Andy's conversation skills have turned a big corner. He has always been very vocal, but now if you ask him a question he will say hmmm, then think for a second and then answer you. Like last night when we asked him what he wanted for dinner he said: hmmm, hot dog with ketchup on it and peas. It's cracking us up. It also has its eye opening moments like when he told me this morning, "I'm a womanizer." No lie. I'm guessing he got that from Britney Spears? What a great role model...

Big Brother


So I guess the news is officially out- I am going to be a BIG BROTHER!!! My little brother or sister is due in August! Mom tells me that it is going to be a long, hot summer with lots of time spent at the pool. Fine by me!

Little Jumping Bean

Amelia for the Holidays

After Christmas, we went down to Amelia for a long weekend. Boy was it nice! 78 degrees and sunny, wonderful. We were even able to hit the beach and the baby pool. We were a little anxious to see how Andy would take to the beach and water this time (in the past he has been very indifferent), but what a difference a few months makes. He was all about the sand and ocean. Kicking the waves and all. Also, he spent over an hour in the baby pool. Makes us so excited for Summer!








Drums

I had a big Christmas this year! The best part of the whole Season was having all of my family in town. I got some great gifts - a 50's diner, club chair, my own kid-sized table + chairs and a slew of other fun stuff. My most talked about gift had to be the drum set that Uncle Andy gave me. Thanks Andy!...


Means Family Christmas

We had the annual Means family Christmas get together a few days before the Big Day. It was so great getting a chance to see all of my cousins!

Aquarium

This was my first trip to the Georgia Aquarium, and I loved it! The highlight was the scuba diver cleaning the tank (I tried to wave to him the whole time)
