I ♥ Faces (at the Beach!)

This week @ i heart faces is all about the beach. This is definitely one of my fav's. I love her pouty attitude! This is so my child! :)

I'm about out of time to enter so no editing, just straight out of the camera will have to do.

Mommy learns a lesson

I learned a very valuable lesson in Target tonight. The kids and I went out for a quick bite (Kevin is working) and then to Target to buy Isabel some more "big girl underwear" and some Pop-Tarts. Let me say that she has done a great job this week with the potty training. I am so proud of her. She is like a totally different child. She knows when she needs to go (pee & poop) and climbs up on the potty and VOILA! Yea Iz!!!! Well, when we left the restaurant both kids peed in the potty like little champions. I'm such a proud Mom! Next stop was Target. We were on like aisle 4 and Iz said she needed to potty. The potty was on the other side of the store so I told her to "hold on a minute" because I was looking for the stupid Pop-Tarts. You can imagine where this is going, right? Literally 2 minutes later I had the PopTarts in hand and I heard what sounded like a drink was being spilled on the floor only it was not a beverage. She peed in the middle of the aisle. She was sitting inside the cart and Jackson likes to sit up by me in the actual seat. Anyway, she was wearing a short sundress and her little panties so really all that got wet was her panties and the floor. So as far as an accident goes I think I got off really easy. Target wasn't so lucky but I sure was. I did tell her that it was not her fault. She told me she needed to go and I chose not to listen. Bad Mommy. I apologized to my little girl and promised her it wouldn't happen again. :) Lesson learned.

Gan Gan's day at the Beach!

No, we didn't get to go back to the beach. I must have been distracted by my real life because I never got finished with all the beach pics from last month. If for no one else, these are for my Mom/Gan Gan. It was the day she spent on the beach and in the pool with the kids. Nicole was on baby Nicholas duty so she's the one MIA from these photos. I do love the beach.


This is totally a favorite Jackson shot!! I love that baby's smile.
Gan Gan & Jackson

I took about 20 shots of this little group and this was the best one. My kids will no longer look at me with a camrea in my hands.







They all love each other so much. Very sweet.
Mom & Jackson

More great weather in the South

Sunday was another gorgeous day so we tried out a new playground. It's actually at the elementary school where Kevin and my SIL Nicole went as kids. We headed out early and met up with Nicole, Ella & "baby Nicholas". It's always a good idea to try and wear the kids out before their nap. :)

(totally different subject: Iz peed & pooped in the potty today!!!! at school and at home. this is HUGE!)
