Lots and lots of pics + Ocean City vacation pics!

We're back from our vacation to Ocean City! The first part of this post t is going to be filled with pictures from before we left and the second part will be from the vacation. This post is just going to be a big picture dump. Enjoy!

 Big blue eyes and a drooly face

 Playing with toys

 Using her stuffed giraffe as a pillow to prop her up

 Passed out

 My silly boy

 Watching Blue's Clues

 Head-butting the chair

 Playing together

She looks very confused

 Playing with the empty bin instead of her toys... silly!

Below was my attempt at getting some pictures done of them in their matching brother and sister shirts.








 Looks like a stare-down!

 She's laughing at Isaac off camera


 Silly face

Trying to get them to pose and look at the camera 
and smile at the same time is rather difficult!

 My stash of home-made baby food :) 

 Matching bath mohawks

 We gave Isaac a container and told him to pick 
the red tomatoes. He did rather well too!

 Look's like she is ready to crawl! Soon Rosie, soon!

 Finally a picture of her two bottom teeth :)

Testing out his puddle jumper that we got for our vacation!

Now on to the pictures from our vacation! We got there Saturday around 9:30pm (we had a birthday party to go to before hand, which worked out well due to traffic on the Bay Bridge). We stayed in a two-story condo that had five bedrooms. There were 12 adults, 6 kids, and one baby staying there. The place was only a block away from the beach entrance which was nice because we could walk there instead of piling the kids in the car. We went to the boardwalk a few times and Isaac got to ride on the Ferris wheel for the first time and he LOVED it. He got to play with his cousins and had such  blast. Matt had to go back Tuesday night because he had to return to work then the kids and I went back Friday evening. Over all it was a great vacation but we all ready to get back home.

 Mommy and Isaac at the beach

 Took him about a half hour or so, but he went from 
terrified of the waves and me holding him up, 
to him jumping into the water by himself 
(though he still needed to hold my hand lol)

 I let go of his hand and he chased after me haha

 Mid jump.. cool pic

 Passed out on the blanket
