Last Month via the Camera Phone

I have been a TERRIBLE blogger. You might not care, but I do. I like keeping a journal of what we are up to, what Bella is up to. We've been so busy and not taking many pics. I have, however, been taking pics with the iPhone. So, here is a recap of some of the things we've been doing thru the lens of my phone...

Going to the park. Loves the swing & slide:


Sitting in her beach chair, in a lifejacket. Guess someone is ready for vacation?


Going to the pool. Eating one of her fav snacks, grapes. She gets a grape out of the drawer EVERYTIME the fridge opens. And, if she can manage, she sneaks them at the grocery store.


Loves bath time:


Plays with hats & sunglasses & shoes & socks... and drags toys ALL around the house:

Chick-fil-a night:


Being Cute:


"Swimming" all around the house:


Reading:


She's a great garage sale partner. All 4 items for $7!


And, finally... she's learned to say "Cheese!"

Dream Big

Jeff Henderson, Buckhead's campus director, brought in an author today
to speak to the staff.

His name: Joe(y) Reiman. His book: Thinking For A Living. His agenda:
dream big.

It was one of the most enthusiastic, authentic representations of
passion I've ever seen. Captivating. I couldn't divert my eyes from
him. Maybe because he spoke through his eyes, not his mouth. He was
overflowing with life. We all were changed today.

Here are a few key quotes from his talk:

"Be a Famili-onnaire...rich in family."

"Don't 'should' on yourself." Live without regret.

"The omission of nurturing is abuse."

"Marry someone who is never an enemy of your excitement."

"Throw your heart over the fence and your body will follow."

Buy his book. Heck, if you need another reason: he had the most
awesome shoes I've ever seen:

No Hand

It was a strange drive down 400 today. First, I see this car, whose
license plate says, "NO HAND." I thought that meant that he drove
"with no hands on the steering wheel," you know... wrecklessly.
Afterall, he was driving an Audi TT sportscar.

When I drove past him, I quickly realized that he was wasn't
kidding. He was holding his iPhone with a nub...he didn't have hands.
That's wrong.

Weiner Mobile

It's not everyday that you get to see the Oscar Meyer Weiner Mobile.
It's my lucky day.

I like this feature...

This is Bella looking snazy for Kristy's shower this past weekend in
the shoes Erin gave us. So cute!!
