Non Beach Videos from Beach Trip

I have been requested to put up some new videos/pictures. Haven't had time to sift through all the beach pictures and videos, so here's a few cute "non-beach" ones....

Sara Grace really enjoyed the master bedroom bed because you could see yourself in the mirror of the dresser. Here's a clip of her playing. She says something about her belly button part way through :)

On Wednesday of our trip, the wind was REALLY bad and the sand was blowing all over the place, so we didn't even attempt to go out on the beach. We went bowling and played arcade games. Here's some clips of Jaybird and skee ball. Love the wind up!! :) The second video is pretty funny, too! :)

Deep and Wide

Sara Grace loves to sing Deep and Wide. Of course she's got a typical 16 month old attention span....and vocabulary, so it's never more than a few seconds of "Deep deep deep" and hand movements that resemble the Deep and Wide motions, but it's still pretty cute in my opinion!

Dress Crawl

I thought everyone might like to see a little clip of what we get to see every Sunday (or any day Sara Grace wears a dress). This is what I call her "dress crawl". When she wears dresses they get all up under her knees and make it hard for her to crawl. So, she's modified her crawl when she's wearing a dress....she gets up on her feet and does kind of like a bear crawl. It definitely serves its purpose!

Jay's First Goal!

Today was Jaybird's second soccer game. The experience was quite different than last week. This week, the team we played was a good bit more timid than our team. It was kind of a reversal of roles from last week. This week it was OUR coach saying "hold up guys, don't score so many goals!". Last week, it was the other team's coach saying that!

Jaybird scored two goals in today's game! We were very proud of him. I just happened to be recording the play that ended up being his very first goal in a game! Yay!

I didn't take nearly as many pictures and videos this week. But, here's a picture that turned out decent from this week. :)

My Mischievous Daughter

I don't remember Jaybird doing things like this. I really don't. Maybe my memory is just failing me....or maybe my daughter really is more mischievous than my son! :)

So, I went to get Sara Grace up from her nap the other day and this is what I found...... No, I did NOT put my child to bed in just her diaper! She had taken all of her clothes off! :) Granted, she was just wearing a spaghetti strap romper that tends to fall off her shoulders anyway, but STILL! I do not ever remember Jaybird taking his clothes off in bed! Thankfully, though, she did not take off the stinky diaper she was wearing! THANKFULLY! :)




And then yesterday...Jaybird and I were in the living room reading a book and I knew Sara Grace had gone in the kitchen, but I didn't think much of it. Then I realize I am hearing a strange sound in the kitchen. Then it hits me what the sound is....I ran into the kitchen to have my suspicion completely verified.....
Yes....that IS a cantelope rind from the trash can.....

The Duck, The Horse, and Two Cats

Here are some more of Sara Grace's animal noises.

The duck "quack, quack, quack".....

The horse "neigh, neigh, neigh".....

And I put two videos of her cat noise because it's a funny little noise that you don't realize is her cat noise unless you know to listen for it. It's kinda like a high pitched "mah" noise. But, it's her version of "meow" and it's always the same for a cat. :) Oh, and for those that don't know, Milky is our cat. :)

Susan's Braves Night

Saturday night we celebrated Susan's upcoming wedding with her lingerie shower at her apartment and bachelorette party at the Braves Game! We had fun even though the Braves didn't win and Susan didn't make the "big screen" (though we tried really hard!)!

A group shot....

The view from our seats....

This was the (hilarious) usher that was stationed next to our seats. He danced like this EVERY time there was music played at the game! He even came and danced with us at one point. He was a hoot!

More Soccer Pictures

Here's some more pictures from Jaybird's first soccer game this past Saturday.....

The team had pictures scheduled for before the game, but it started to rain, so they had to take them after the game...thankfully I was able to dry some of the sweat off of Jaybird's head!

Jay's First Soccer Game

Saturday, Jaybird had his first soccer game. He had a lot of fun! He was excited because he got to pick out his number. He wanted number four (because he's four years old) and he got it! And, of course, we were all happy his team got to be the red team! Gerogia colors!! Here are some videos that will give you the basic idea of what the game was like. Jaybird was much more interested in running around with other kids his age than he was with trying to take the ball from the other team or even with scoring a goal!

This video lets you catch a glimpse of Jay checking out his "running posture". I don't know if he's trying to look like a super hero or what. Maybe he thinks he runs faster if he looks like he's running fast! :)

And here's where he almost scored a goal. I really thought he was going to do it, but that little blue kid just robbed him! :) Jaybird waits up for him at the end, though, and makes sure he at least out runs him! :)

Newfound Talent

Sara Grace has a newfound talent. Maybe she'll be good at decorating/arranging rooms. Goodness knows I'm sure not! :) She really loves to do this.....

Sara Grace's First Tooth

I finally caught some pictures of Sara Grace's first tooth. They're not the best pictures, but at least you can see it...and see that it's crooked. :)

The Elephant And The Butterfly

Caught a few more animal sounds on video. Thought I'd share....

Did you notice the elephant's trunk??

The butterfly has a similar story to the peacock on my last post. We needed a noise for a butterfly, so I wave my hand like a butterfly flying and say "flutter, flutter, flutter"....just so you know what she's trying to say. :)
