Moore Family Vacation

At the beginning of June we headed to Florida for a week long family vacation.  The trip there was a disaster.  We flew from Houston to Ft. Lauderdale & had a 5 hour delay before our flight to Key West (making us leave at 9pm & your bedtime is 7pm).  You were a trouper though & did great.  You loved people watching in the airport.  And of course looking at all the planes.  


You were fantastic on the plane too.  You watched cartoons, colored, played with stickers, and ate....a bunch.  You were never fussy.  You loved it when we hit turbulence; you'd throw your arms in the air like we were on a roller coaster.  Where you learned that, I'm not real sure.   



 Aunt Grace got some great pictures of you & Bubby out on the dock at our beach house.



Aunt Grace got engaged to Mr. Jim.  We are all very excited for them.


Momma went fishing & caught a monster barracuda .

 And we went to the Key West Aquarium.  You loved looking at all the fish & turtles.







 And we spent the rest of our days hanging out at the pool.  The beach was covered in seaweed, so we couldn't play in the sand, but the pool was wonderful.  You loved playing in the water & hanging out with Sam & Max.










Overall, we enjoyed our trip.  We love spending time with the family.  You were so fun.   


I love you so much, bug!

Sweet, Sweet Days

Emma,

You are in a bye, bye  phase.  You've been saying bye, bye since before you turned one, but I think you are just now figuring out what it means.  Today before we went to school you told your babies, the roses, the dogs, the house, the garage, & our neighbors bye, bye.  You leave one room & tell it bye, bye.  We throw your banana peel away & it's bye, bye.  It's a cute phase & I love all of your little bye, byes.

You are also into a cuddling phase. You've never been one to really cuddle, but you have been lately.  Today I was in the kitchen getting your snack & you pulled me to the ground & I sat.  You got into my lap & loved on me.  We sat in the kitchen floor for probably a good 20 minutes cuddling, giggling, rubbing noses & giving kisses.  I want to bottle that moment up.  You are so sweet.  I love this phase. I love every cuddle, kiss, giggle, and I love every ounce of you!
