Seth's Mimi blessed us so much by allowing us to spend a week in one of her time shares. We went to Palm Coast. We had sooo much fun! The Steels got to come down the first couple of days and Stevie loved playing with their girls, I loved hanging with Nicole, and Seth loved his guy time with Adam. We all had a wonderful time!!

This is Stevie and I at the beach, she is not big on kissing humans (but she will kiss dogs, cats, and all her toys, especially TOBY!!)

Stevie is in love with sunglasses, here she is playing with mine, we accidentally left hers at the condo.
The whole crew (minus Stevie and I) playing in the water...

This is funny to me, Stevie has learned to say, "Dog" when she sees a dog, but sometimes she says it when it is a bug or a bird or a cat (basically any animal to her is a dog), well we were all sitting there on the beach having a picnic when randomly Stevie says, "Dog!" so of course we all laugh and think that she is just saying it at the birds or something but then we look over and there is this dog, Freckles (his name was printed on his tag), sitting so close to Adam that he was basically in his lap. It was so funny that she was the only one that noticed ;) Freckles sat there patiently watching us eat the whole time until we got up and went to the ocean and then he finished off the leftovers that we kindly left behind for us. When I decided to take a picture of him, he professionally posed for the camera, it was as if that was his job to sit there at the beach all day and keep families company.
Stevie by the pool, she loves baths so I just knew she would love the pool, wrong! It took us about 20 minutes to finally get her use to the water (it was a heated pool, but not as heated as our baths are). Then once she finally got use to the water and started splashing around and having a good time, Seth would get super protective and say, "She needs to get out I don't want her getting sunburnt!" We literally used a whole tub of sun block on her, but it was sweet how concerned he was about her.
Going out to eat was such a treat, especially because the Steels car was big enough for us all to fit in. It was awesome to get to spend time with them. We went to Olive Garden, I know we should have picked somewhere more unique but I was REALLY craving Olive Garden. I bought these matching dresses for the girls at a consignment sale so I really wanted to get a cute pic of them wearing them, after 15 different tries I think we finally got one....
We kinda let Stevie eat a little too many M & M's. It was funny because I was explaining to Seth that he is like 10 times the size of her (she weighs almost 20 lbs and he is almost 200 lbs) and so 2 M&M's to him is like 20 to her. After we got to thinking about it like that we realized she was eating like 10-15 a day, and that is like him eating 100-150 M&M's a day. We had to put a stop to the M&M fetish after that. It was funny though because she would crawl to the spot where they were on the kitchen counter and pout for M&M's. Speaking of tons of M&M's, I hope I did not gain to much weight on this trip because I have to see Dr. Culbreth this doc appt and this is my first time seeing him and I have heard that he fusses at women for gaining too much weight. He will probably have a field day with me!!

  1. I love the pictures! Especially the one of the two girls together! SO cute with their matching dresses! And that's precious about Freckles too! Did Stevie end up getting burnt? You know I can't WAIT to get Kye to a pool but I'm super nervous about the sun too! They make a cool float thing for the baby that has a sun protector over it! Good luck with the Weight Dr...let me know what he says!!! He'll probably be SUPER nice to you!!!
