Baby Dedication

Father's Day Sunday our Daphne was dedicated to the church. It was very nice, and both her godparents were there, my parents, Clinton's dad and step-mom, and of course Brian, Shannon, Brendan, and Lauren. We went to lunch afterwards at Rancho Viejo. It was a good day.

Daphne and I are loving being out of school, although we haven't stopped long enough to really relax! We have been doing a lot of playing and cleaning this week getting ready for the yard sale on Saturday (6/27).
Most of us outside of the church after Daphne's dedication.
Lauren and I playing with Daphne in her new hippo pool. It squirts water and everything!

Obviously she enjoys her pool. We now have the beach on the front porch and the pool/ocean on the back porch. We are all decked out for summer time!


Daphne and I are at Ruby Tuesdays eating lunch with Aunt Shannon. They gave us a booster seat instead of a high chair. Oh that was interesting!
We have done quite a lot of this at mom and dad's the past two weeks. We love playing in the pool and relaxing. Of course, splashing is a must!

Sand box dream

As of Friday, Daphne is walking by herself! She is doing so well! Although she still crawls quite a bit, when she is holding onto things, she lets go to get to the next place. It's real cute. On Friday night, we got a call from Mimi and Paw saying they wanted to come over. So, we thought they wanted to see this walking first hand. Boy were we surprised! They showed up with a red crab, six bags of sandbox sand, and sand box toys. We now have a wonderful sandbox on the front porch. She loves it!!!
Daddy likes playing in the sand also :) We figured out that a handful of sand put into the bucket fills it up. This was useful information for her for quite a while.

Trying to figure out the sifter.


We have become a big daddy's girl here lately. Clinton went to get the mail, and she was jumping up and down when she saw him coming back to the house again. It was so cute!!!!

Loving the sandbox. We learned two valuable lessons the past two days. 1...don't eat the sand. 2...don't rub our eyes with sand on our hands. Both of these are not so good.

Uncle Brian and Daphne playing pass the ball with golf clubs.


Daphne is so cute in her outfit.


Giggle fit. She was laughing so hard for like twenty minutes for absolutely no reason. We wouldn't even tickle her and she was laughing. Clinton and I couldn't stop laughing the whole time she did it.
