Blueberry Pancakes!

Just call me Martha...you know me, the regular old Martha Stewart. I recently decided I would try to make some homemade blueberry pancakes for breakfast. They actually turned out pretty well. (I even ate them myself) Dylan was cute. He liked the pancakes, but steered clear of the big blueberries. I thought next time, I might mash them up a bit. But, here are a couple pics from our morning...

Community Helper Month

At Dylan's school, the focus for the month of September was on community helpers. Dylan learned all about teachers, police officers, nurses, doctors, post office workers, AND...

FIREFIGHTERS!!!!

This must have been Dylan's favorite because he got such a cool hat that he loves to wear. It even inspired him to be a helper and make sure Daddy was mowing the grass the right way.

Sunset Dinner

On a Friday evening, we decided it might be nice to head to the beach and eat dinner. So, we headed out to Sloppy Joe's on Saint Pete Beach. We called Uncle Andy and he and Rachel came to meet us also. Before we left though, Dylan did have to terrorize the dog a bit. Hunter is such a sport. He must love that little man as much as we do.



While we were waiting for our friends, Daddy and Dylan were doing a little coloring...


Quick pics with Mommy and Daddy...



When we'd had enough of sitting, it was time to RUN and HIT THE BEACH!!!




Ok, so he would rather run up and down the ramp and sidewalk than go walking in the sand. We did eventually get him to go to the beach, but only briefly. It was getting late and dark. But overall, a successful night!

Last Vacation of the 2010 Summer!

It was the annual trip to Sanibel Island. We headed South the first week in August to take a little vacation before I had to head back to school. Here are some of the many pictures we took. Check out Dylan's first bike ride!

Matt Garza's No Hitter!

Look how excited Dylan was to get to go to the Rays game...

We took him to the Ray tank...


He got a little scared when the crowd was cheering so loudly because Matt Garza was finishing pitching his almost perfect game.

What a great game to decide to take Dylan to. It was amazing being there!

A Play Date for Dylan

Dylan and I went to spend some time with my friend Cathy and her daughter Cara. Cara is about 7 months older than Dylan. They were so cute together playing and snacking.


And a quick kiss goodbye before heading home...

4th of July Weekend in North Carolina

We went to North Carolina for the 4th of July holiday. It was Dylan's first road trip. It was a long drive up, so we planned to drive through the night so that Dylan could sleep most of the time. He is a tummy sleeper, so after a few hours of sleeping, he became restless. I ended up letting him sleep on my chest most of the way up there as well as the way home. The tradition is to always head to breakfast at Famous Louise's. We had a private room upstairs because we had so many people.


Aunt Samma tried to keep him occupied at the restaurant.



We went hiking...




It was too dangerous to let Dylan roam around and he was getting a little upset, so good thing we had back-up in the van. He had a great time playing in the van while we waited for the rest of the krewe to finish hiking.



We had some fun times in the backyard playing badminton, hanging out, and using a slingshot to shoot water balloons in the air.

A little walk with Mommy and Daddy...


Dylan wanted to learn how to play badminton too!



We had a great time visiting North Carolina and getting to spend time with family and friends.
