It's a Date

Today Brailyn had a playdate with Jaxon (Dave and Ashley Rogers) at the zoo. She had a lot of fun playing in the water and looking at the animals. I think she was still a little wary of Jaxon and his headlocks (which he put her in on Saturday at the Wyeth's) so she kept her distance. But they still had a blast and were tuckered out on the ride home. Thank you Ashley!!!

Oh, Freedom!

We decided to let Brailyn run around a little before we put her diaper on, and well, let's just say she was quite happy without all that extra baggage. She kept running away from us! Luckily Grandma has tile floors, so it wasn't too bad when she'd tinkle a little. But aren't naked babies too funny??

Going Shopping

Thank you Grandma for the new shopping cart. Brailyn loves it and pushes it all around the house. And she likes to put Pooh Bear in the baby seat. Too cute!!

Super Carl

This is Super Carl, or "Caw" to Brailyn. His alias is Carl Crawford, Devil Rays outfielder, but to us, he's a super hero, protecting the game of baseball and the American way. We got him at a D-Rays game in Tampa, and Brailyn loves to play with him. She makes him fly, points to his body parts, and just likes to have him around. It's great. And we're breaking gender stereotypes at the same time!!

Good Bye, Tampa

We leave Tampa tomorrow, and we're all a little sad. We really have enjoyed our summer here, and although the time was short, we feel we can call it a home. Brailyn will surely miss our evening walks to go see the ducks and turtles in the pond, and hopefully she'll remember our trip to Sea World to see Elmo. But we are excited to go back home and to see our family and friends. Clint is anxious to be busy with school again (and so is Momma), and soon we'll be looking for a new job and possibly a new home again. But it will hopefully be the last move for a couple of years...

Fountain Park

Today we went to a park here in Tampa that has a fountain playground. Brailyn had a blast getting soaked. And she did pretty well with a bunch of bigger kids running around. She even tried to shoot some of the water canons. Someone at church had told me about it, and I'm glad we finally made the trip!
