Here are some pictures of mom and dad at Crab Island, Memorial Day weekend. Look how pretty the water was!
This is mommy, Erin and Alison. 2 of mommy's bestest friends. Erin just had another baby. Elana Jo is 4 weeks old and she has an older sister, Kierstin who is a little over 2 years old. 
Grandma and Grandpa Brown came to see me this week! They come every year about twice a year and stay at a condo on the beach for nearly 2 weeks. They have so much fun watching the dolphins, relaxing on the beach, reading and going to eat at all of Destin's wonderful restaurants. This time though, they had something more fun to do.... Play with ME!!! They came to see me a bunch and mommy brought me by the condo one day so she could get her toenails painted. I had so much fun playing with Grandma and Grandpa. We sang and laughed so much! I giggled at my grandpa and he thought I was the cutest thing in the world. I am sad that they have to go back to Knoxville, but they will be back in August! So I will count the days until I get to play, cuddle and show off for them next time! Here are some pictures of their visit.
My doctor told mommy to always put my shades on when I am out in the sun, but up until today I have hated them. I look pretty cool! Eddie is also helping to shade me from the sun. He is such a good doggie. I really like being outside and especially in my bouncy seat because I can listen to my "tunes". You know, all the good ones like.... "Twinkle, twinkle" and "If You're Happy and You Know It". What's tunes do you have in your bouncy seat?
The other pictures on this post are from my friend Jack's 1st birthday party. He had a pool party at one of the condos on Holiday Isle. It was a lot of fun. I swam with daddy and watched Jack eat his cake. Man, he made a mess! I can't wait to have a birthday party. I also went to my neighbor's 4 year old birthday party the same day. His mommy and daddy brought in the local fire truck. It was really cool to watch the lights and listen to the sirens. Bodie's party was a bunch of fun too.... But boy was I tired at the end of the day. I slept so hard!!! 
The little boy in the float is Jack and that is his daddy Paul. I got to sit in his float for a little bit, but mommy made me get out of the water because I started to get too much sun on my face. What a party pooper! :-(This was mommy's first Mother's Day and we had so much fun. We went out to the Point with a bunch of mom and dad's friends and they had a crawfish boil. We stayed out there all afternoon, and of course I slept most of the day. It was really windy and I just got so relaxed that I was out! DON'T WORRY grandma and grandmommy, I promise mom kept putting that gross sunscreen on me all day long. I didn't even get a tan. And the wind was blowing a lot so I didn't get too hot either.
This is my friend Jack. He turns 1 next weekend and we get to go to his birthday party! He likes to eat the sand so that's why his face is so white. He was walking by 9 months, I think I am following closesly in his footsteps. We will have so much fun together... getting into trouble, when I am able to walk.
This is Jack's dad, Paul. His mommy, Brooke had a cast on. She fell down the stairs and broke her foot. I felt sorry for her in the hot sun and on the sand having to walk around in a cast. Daddy said I will probably have several of those in my lifetime since I am a boy... but mommy said we are going to do our best to avoid them :-)
Jack loved trying to tickle my feet. I didn't wake up though.
This is from a few days before. Mommy and Aunt Sissy took me out to the pool for lunch in Watercolor. I thought the hat was hysterical. I laughed when mommy put it on me.
This is mommy and daddy. Allison Ming and Jeff Jones got married Saturday so they went to the wedding and then met some friends on the harbor afterwards while I stayed with a babysitter... Erica. She is a nurse where I was born! We had so much fun playing while they were gone, but of course I was glad when they got home. My Grandma and Grandpa Brown got in town this weekend too! They are here for just about 2 weeks and I am sure we'll get to play a bunch and get lots of pictures! They stay in a nice big condo on the beach. It is going to be fun to go see them and mommy will post some pictures of them soon! Well, mom swore off road trips until I was able to enjoy DVDs in the car, but this year Uncle Brit was in charge of the family reunion. He worked so hard to put it all together that mom and Aunt Sissy decided to make the trip. I did really well this time. I slept the whole time from Destin to Jones, AL which is right outside Selma. We had a good time and we met lots of people that were very special to my mommy's nanny and great aunts. The food was really good too, but of course all I got was formula :-( Then mommy, Aunt Sissy, grandmommy and I went to Selma to visit some of nanny's cousins. It was nice to meet all of them, but boy I was tired. I only ate one more time that day and then slept for like 7 hours. Mommy kept checking on me to make sure I was alright. Then we all stayed in a hotel. It was my first night in a hotel and it was fun because mommy just let me sleep in the bed with her. I was sad when we had to leave to come back home, but I get to see my grandmommy and pa-paw at the end of this month and I am very excited!
This is the Jones Community Center where the family reunion was held. Mommy remembers coming here when she was like 5 years old. It is really pretty out there, but was very far away.
When we went to Selma, we went to New Live Oak Cemetary where mommy's great aunts and uncles and their family are buried. It is really pretty out there. The mossy oak trees make it look like something you would see in Savannah. It is gorgeous and peaceful.
My grandmommy brought me a toy. We named him Aubie. I had fun looking at him and trying to grab him. He is almost as long as I am!
My grandmommy feeding me at the reunion. I was trying to talk to her here.
Uncle Brit had to give a presentation our families background. He got really nervous but did such a great job! We were all so proud of him!
This is Fuzzy. He is another distant relative that is really neat. He is a photographer and has taken many pictures of famous people. He has even photographed John F Kennedy! Pretty cool. His wife's name is Elsie, but mommy didn't have a picture with her.
My grandmommy held me a lot. Not many other people got their turn, but that was fine with me because I miss her..... a lot!!!!
They give an award for the youngest attendee and we thought we had it in the bag until another baby came in that was much smaller than me. Believe it or not, we were born on the same day and I won because she was born early in the morning. I looked like a 6 month old compared to her and I was only 10 weeks old at the reunion!
Another pic of Uncle Brit and I. I miss him too!
I got to see my great uncle Steve again. He went to dinner with us too that night, but I slept the whole time!
Aunt Sissy and I in the car eating before we went in to meet everyone. We have had fun trying to make some videos this week. Unfortunately when mommy gets the camera out, I watch the camera and forget to act. I have been smiling and laughing and talking so much that I want all my family and friends to see me. I'm sorry you have to hear mommy's voice in the background, she will not hush. But when she says "do you have a poo poo diaper?" I die laughing. It is the funniest thing in the world. So here is a video of my Brad Pitt smile... Superman strength video to come.... :-)
