Pool Party with Caroline

Mommy and Daddy made a trip to the beach last week. Caroline didn't want to go to a boring old beach so us Grandmas (and Paws too) entertained her for a few days. Mimi started off the week and graciously handed Caroline over to me for the remainder of the week. From all accounts, Caroline was spoiled to perfection from west to north of town! Mommy and Daddy returned late Thursday and Caroline and I were anxiously waiting on them. When the car came to a stop in the garage, there was a mad dash to see who could reach us first. I thought they were rushing to give us both a hug. Nope...they wrestled Caroline away from me and slathered her with sugar and smiles. That's ok, I know they missed her! We had a super good time with Caroline and so enjoyed having her with us. When's the next vacation scheduled?

Caroline Turns 14 Months Old

Earlier today, Caroline and Mommy drove me to Monroe to pick up a few unnecessary items! We mainly just wanted to get out for a while and Mommy did have an item or two to return. Our tummies growling, we went to McAlister's for a big old glass of sweet tea and sandwich. Caroline ordered a gwilled cheese sammich and apple sthauce from the kid menu. As Mommy was getting our tea and water, a very nice man behind the counter walked out with a huge yellow balloon for Caroline! She said something I couldn't understand and trembled as he handed the balloon to her. After we got seated, I tied the balloon to her high chair. See the video for evidence of her delight over her yellow balloon. When we got back to Granny and Papaw's house, Caroline was treated to an orange push-up. Caroline enjoys her visits to Granny's, she gets anything she wants. After all, isn't that what grandchildren are for? Spoiling rottenly sweet! 

Caroline the Cutie



THERE she is!!

Where's Caroline?

Check out the two new videos. Caroline is walking down the hall all by herself, no finger needed for balance! She is also learning the word No...and repeating it!

Every day our baby girl is growing up before our eyes. Learning words, walking, playing peek a boo, taking her passy less, off her bottles....

S l o w d o w n Caroline!!

Grinnin' Girl

I don't remember taking many pictures of Caroline NOT smiling. She is the happiest baby girl I've ever seen! She's happy doing anything! It doesn't matter whether she's eating, folding towels, or just sitting and chatting with her new hootie owl - Caroline is happy. Every now and then, when my day turns a bit sour, I whip out my handy dandy iPhone and look at a picture of Caroline. My mood lightens and in an instant, I have to smile. I know I'm a little biased, but isn't she the cutest thing you've ever laid eyes on? A bit ago, Daddy sent me a video clip of Caroline. I won't ruin the surprise for you....just check out the new video, Caroline WALKS!

Busy Baby Girl

Caroline kept the road hot this week, she came to town twice! Mimi and Papaw invited Caroline for an overnight stay Saturday evening. Mimi sent me a picture Sunday morning of Caroline taking a ride in her monkey pj's. Looks like she knows about steering..three and six right?
Caroline and Mommy spent the day with Granny and Papaw today. Caroline was treated to lunch, popcicles, and ice cream! She played hard all day and intentionally skipped her 2 hour nap. Papaw emailed me a letter that Caroline wrote to me all her own. Not sure what it says but Papaw said she had lots of fun typing on the key board! Mommy sent me a picture of her little rider on her way home. The car noise combined with background music was just too much, Caroline had to give it up! Note - no passy needed!
