I'm in love with a Sk8er boy!

Christian now has a skateboard. He has proved himself to be very athletic...so we thought we would take it to the next step. Momma made sure he had all of the padding he would need,wrist guards, helmet, knee pads, elbow pads...he was decked out. It lasted all about 5 minutes before he was wanting to take all the pads off. He likes to do tricks though. Lilly wanted to give it a try too.

Silly Boy!

Christian's got rhythm. He is really into dancing right now. His favorite moves would include the booty shake, getting low and raising the roof. His favorite songs would include anything by Kenny Chesney, Low by FloRida, It's my Life by BonJobi(as he would say) and She's a Hottie by Toby Keith. And if your going to play it....play it loud!! He loves loud music. I think he gets that from his Daddy!

Lilly and Devon's visit (oh yeah...Aunt Karen too)

Lot's of fun was had at the house when Aunt Karen, Devon and Lilly were here. Madison and Herbie Lee came over and they all practiced their golfing skills.

Devon even wore the shorts for golfing! :)

Christian had the most fun hitting the ball as hard as he could and then trying to chase it down before it stopped rolling so he could try and hit it again. He likes to make up his own games.

Lilly was very brave to let Devon drive her around. Look at the red cheeks on those kids...it must had been nearly 100 degrees outside.

Now Devon is the brave one. Christian learned from the next door neighbor Alex...how to be a mad man on the trucks.

Isn't she so sweet? I'm telling you she is an angel and has won over a huge part of her Aunt Peggy's heart.

Just pondering....she was thinking....I could live here in Florida near my Aunt Peggy.

Devon's My Buddy

When Devon was here Christian had so much fun playing with him. They went swimming, rode their bikes, danced, ran around like crazy....it was a lot of fun....they even fell asleep together. Well sort of...ask Aunt Karen about that and she may not agree.

Monster trucks in the pool...of course!

Riding Bikes in the house...it doesn't get any cooler than this!

This is the life! (Look closely and you can see Christian's 6 pack abs!!)

On Johnny's boat

Christian loved being on the boat with Johnny, Aunt Patti, Cheyenne and Alyssa. It was such a beautiful day. We got to see 2 dolphins up real close to the boat. He thought that was really cool. Then he went with Cheyenne to find crabs (Momma stayed on the boat for that part). We then went to beer can alley and he had fun swimming and jumping into the ocean. He got to go fishing for the first time and had fun watching the live bait jump around. He was so exhausted that he fell asleep sitting up as we jumped over the wakes heading back to the dock. He still talks about going back on Johnny's boat. He had so much fun!

I know...it's been awhile!!

I hope you enjoy the pictures. I know that it has been awhile and I'm actually wondering if any of you are still checking this site. I did get a camera in May...so hopefully I will be a little better at posting pictures...but I wouldn't hold your breath either. :)

Christian's 1st Race

Well...for those of you who have seen Christian run it is amazing. He is so fast and he loves it! Kyle decided to sign him up for the Gasparilla Children's Race. We talked to him about it for days and when the day came...he really was so excited. As we were driving there he kept saying to Aunt Penny "There's my race!" When we got there, we signed in and got his goody bag and T-shirt. The T-shirt was a little too big, so we decided it would be easier for him to run with his spiderman shirt on. He wasn't a big fan of the race number, but he allowed mama to put on his back. There were a lot of mascots there from around town...so he had fun talking to them and taking pictures with them. I think we got there a little too early. By the time they called for the 3 year olds to run he was really tired and leachy on to me...he may have been a little nervous too. We got to the starting line and they said on the mark, get set, go. He froze. I couldn't get him to run. I grabbed his hand and tried to drag him, but he would not budge. Then one of the men at the starting line grabbed his other hand and said "come on buddy...let's go!" Then he loved it. Just smiling as he ran. When we were through he said "I wanna do it again!" He got his medal, which he thought was pretty cool. We will definitely sign him up for another race...and encourage all of you to do the same with your kids. They are so much fun!!
