Our beach trip...

Madelyn and I took a trip to Emerald Isle last week to visit Nanna and Gary. We had a great time! Madelyn was able to meet Gary's granddaughter, Maggie, and grandson, Elijah. She had a blast playing with the both of them. It was a busy week! We also took her to the NC Aquarium. She really enjoyed the turtles! The beach was a hit, of course. She didn't mind having sand from her head to her toes (literally)! Daddy was out of town while we were at the beach. We all came home on Thursday.

On Saturday, Danny and I left for a wedding in Virginia. One of his closest friends was getting married. We had a great time hanging out with friends and taking a little mini break! Aunt Marissa and Uncle Marc kept Madelyn. It was so hard to leave her!! She did fine, though! They took her to the pool, park, out to dinner, and to get ice cream...so we're sure she loved every minute of it!!

We're happy to be home now and have a break before we head to the beach in September.

And so the fun continues...!!

The last few days have been pretty uneventful. Madelyn and mommy have had a great week so far. We visited with Nonna, Aunt Marissa (aka Aunt Miss), and Papa on Monday for lunch. Our library also re-opened, so we went to story time there. Madelyn loves to go to the library!! She also enjoys picking new books to check out.

On Tuesday, we went shopping with our friend Kim and her little one, Katelyn. Madelyn loves to play with her. Daddy took Madelyn to Target Tuesday night and he said she was unhappy about something and told him, "I don't like you." He said that can really hurt your feelings!! I didn't think they started that until 3 or so. Maybe it was just a fluke she said it??!!

Lastly, Tuesday night after we headed to bed, Danny heard running water around 12:15...something happened with our refrigerator. We had standing water everywhere in the kitchen!!!! It was quite a sight watching the two of us shovel water into a bucket. I was never so happy to go to bed! It has definitely damaged our flooring. Oh well, such is life! It could have been worse and for that I am thankful he heard it when he did.

Hopefully, the rest of this week will not be as crazy as last night!
